zhiz 4 Report post Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) hi zhiz just got a reply for your ID's colleague, seems like Je...E is over stretch liao and unable to quote for me, so her colleague by the name of Brian will be doing it. wonder you heard of him? any comments? i will still be meeting him for a brief discussion this weekend. gorilla To be frank i was a little concerned as quite a few guys asked me for her contact. I was worried that if she had more projects then no time for mine haha. Before I engaged her I did ask her how many projects does she take at one time. She did tell me that she would handle 2-3 (if i not mistaken) at most as she wants to make sure she can deliver what she promise according to her usual standard. So I am quite glad and pleasantly happy to hear that she will pass on some of the queries to her colleagues. However I personally do not know Brian so I cannot comment. However knowing my ID, she will surely only refer to someone reliable, especially if its a referral from her customer. I doubt anyone will refer a lousy colleague to a customer's referral. Cos if her colleague messed up, she might even risk not getting referrals in future from her customers. As ID firm use the same contractor, I guess workmanship shouldnt be a concern. Most imptly is that you have to feel comfortable with the ID you meet and feel that you can trust the ID with your reno. That is usually the deal clincher in most cases as you will realize the quote comparison doesnt make sense after a while.
