Mimi 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2009 Dear all, I have been reading this forum for the past 2 yrs since i bought a re-sales flat. Due to budget constraint, we only did a bit of touch up - painting the house, change locks, lighting, main gate and purchase of furnitures before shifting in. As the place was quite a move -in condition given our situation. 2 yrs passed and we find the kitchen and toilet quite unbearable now.... Hence, would like to do a minor renovation.. Toilet, kitchen WOuld like to seek the advise of forumers, if there is any good contractors who do resales flat? We have a budget of 10-15K: Thank You Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ivy 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2009 Thanks Ivy So happy to hear got replies from this forum Who is Uncle Soon? What does he do? Can PM his contact? Thank you If you browse thru the other threads, now, there's a number of projects handled by Uncle Ah Soon and Mr Yeak. Uncle ah soon is contractor lor. I can pm you his number. However I need to pre-empt you first. Bcos uncle Ah Soon now got alot of projects, he may not be able to respond to your quote immediately. He'll take awhile to come out with quotes and also he is famous for being late or missing appointments. But he is a nice uncle who will try his best to help. If all that deters you, probably Mr Yeak may suits you better. So far reviews has also been good for Mr Yeak. You can refer to Rondy and Angel's thread for Mr Yeak's works.

I'm always online as long as I'm home. Monday is always the best day to call Uncle for anything cos he is fresher from his break on Sunday. Call him one hour before appt time to remind him ok?
