blueyme 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2010 The trigger point was actually he amended the quotation and did not inform me of the change. All along when we discussed, everything was based on the original plan and nothing was mentioned about the change. But only when he showed me the 3D, then he mentioned that the quote is actually based on the different dimension. Hence, the reduction in quote. I didnt check the wordings of the quotation/contract and only looked at the figure quoted and happily thought that he gave a discount. Everything he quoted is higher than others, but I thought he has more ideas and communicated better. So i signed with him. For tiling, he is about 15-20% more expensive. So now i am thinking of what I can do to cut/reduce the damage. Jaskel, think i pm you the quotation i received. Was wondering if you can help me to take a look and advise me what to be done.

Jgal 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) Hmm don't think u should remove tiling frm him. Tile is easily damaged in the process of renovation. Thus, u would want him to that responsible when that occurs and change the tiles for u . Else may end up having damage with no one wanting to help. You could remove the following from him :- 1. Aircon installation , do that before any work is done in your house. 2. Painting 3. Electricial. 4. Pumbler Edited September 11, 2010 by Jgal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
