Supersimon27 2 Report post Posted September 24, 2009 Good services part 4 The Henner club – Henry ID note Woodlands ( A HDB licensed contactor ) Ever since I start my T-blog , I had receive quite a lot of Pm asking about my contractor contact. Since then the henner force had been growing too. To be fair I think it’s time for me to write a short review (not really short) on Henry team of renovation to answer all quires. I like Henry Quotation. It’s clear all black and white. Anything written in the quotation he will not increase the price (unless upgrade involved). Forumer had been asking me about any hidden cost. I would say there isn’t any for my case, or I would say I didn’t consider those as hidden cost as mainly mine is like adding additional item (changing of door knock etc etc). To me example of hidden cost is like: He charge u the kitchen cabinet but after doing it he tell you need to pay extra for the handle, or labour cost for installing hob and hood etc … But Henry wouldn’t do this type of thing. Price wise, it’s really very good. I visited a total of around 10 ID film and contractor. He’s the one with the lowest and giving me the most confident. One of my army friends is working with an ID film. I show him the quote that time and he keep asking me to be careful as the price is too cheap to true. Ha … Lucky everything turn out well. Contact ability. Very good. Henry is always contactable be it before signing, during renovation or even after renovation. Even when he is not in Singapore, he will call you back immediately once he is back. So far the longest wait I had for him is 2hr when he is with another customer. He call back 2hr after my miss call. Design. Not bad. He is not those designer that give you 3D drawing. He designs through his experience. My kitchen is design by him. He’s also the one that drive us around selecting our tile. We actually spend whole day selecting tile and he give a lot of good recommendation too. Carpenter Workmanship. Very Good. Understand from forum that a lot of contactor will discourage their customer to choice white glossy laminate for their cabinet. Excuse given will be hard to maintains, turn yellow etc etc. However the true reason is that it’s very difficult to install as there will be a high chance of visible warpage. However when I chose white laminate for my kitchen, he didn’t discourage me at all and even help me to design and match the red glossy laminate. Even closet design designer also admit my my kitchen is very well done. Tiler workmanship. Good . The ground line between tile is small and not deep. We are quite fussy customer, even small snake ground line we wouldn’t accepted. Painter. Bad. I don’t really like the painter initial workmanship. Did complaint to Henry about that and lucky he send another guy to rectify the problem. If not I will see patches at my living hall… Phew… Electrician. Price is average but after sale service very good. I did consider outsourcing initial, (hoping to save some money) but in the end his electrician price is very standard as compare to the market. To save trouble I let him handle. But I must say his after sale service is really good. There is 1 occasion that my MBR toilet light spoils. I call Henry to arrange his electrician to take a look. Upon trouble shooting we found out that it’s not the installation problem but it’s the light issue. He didn’t charge us for that service and even offer to reinstall back the light FOC for me after I exchange it from lighting shop. Laminated flooring. Henry got Supreme member to install my laminated flooring. The only thing that surprises me is that he manages to get the price lower then what I get from contacting supreme direct. He keep telling me he didn’t earn for that, ha … don’t know how true. Plumper services. I really feel sorry for them. They are the one that visit my house the most time as the thing I bought keep having problem (no extra charges for additional visit during renovation) . I would say their workmanship is neat and tidy and during the last visit (my W.C saga ) that guy even mop my common toilet clean before he left. To date, I still keep in contact with Henry. He just visits my place recently to look at my baby with his wife and 2 cute boy boy. I feel comfortable working with him and hope anyone who work with him have a pleasant experience too.
