miap 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2011 Site Visit Day Met 3 contractors today which took about 1.5hrs each. Very enthusiastic talking to the first one who have also contributed many of his own ideas. Second one - still felt good as he is very nice and easy to talk to, listen to us and provided resolutions according to our own ideas. Third one - abit "sian" liao cuz have repeated the same things twice already - some moments dun even feel like talking at all... perhaps also because he is like those "old bird - lao jiao" one, very experience, every now and then need to stop the discussion as he will sketched everything we discussed on pieces of paper - 3D one leh... Once stop, I really dun feel like continuing the conversation. But my man still ok, still talking to him even when he is sketching... HaHa! Will be getting their quotations over the next few days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miap 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) Went to Novena and finally decided to get our beds from them.1 Queen size and 2 super single size Four Star storage beds with mattress at a bargain price of $3130. Initially wanted to get from Beds.sg but it turned out that Novena is cheaper overall and Four Star's quality should be better. They even threw in some freebies for us. So quite a good buy, I felt. Hopefully the delivery and installation will go well and on the date/time as fixed Edited May 10, 2011 by miap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
