Thanks!Based on your 'quote', I will fall under the last category? Lol... I don't know about quality yet but carpentry works is done by KSH, wouldn't worry about that. In fact, I don't think my contractor is good. Too calculative with me, he even have cheek to bring up subject like wasting his petrol, when I'm paying him so many thousands. I will not use his service again and am hesitant recommending to others... If you are really keen, let me know and I'll pm you...?

Rover 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2011 I see tt u are using jovan instant heater. Can support ur rain shower ah? Pressure ok? U living on which floor? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dreaming 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2011 Feel sorry for you to see all these fault. I can totally understand, cos our carpentry have quite alot of hipcup too. And it drags me to go to the house. But you must endure and make sure your contractor/ID rectify for you. Count ourselves bad luck. We just have to spend more energy and time than others to follow.

Ngan 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) Rover: yeah, using Joven instant heater. The connection has not been done (see why below) hence not sure about water pressure with heater on yet. I'm staying on 3rd floor.Dreaming: thanks for the support and encouragement. Guess it's not easy when I have to manage all these on my own, hence I'm already exhausted by this stage. And well, the schedule I provided earlier doesn't stand at all. Contractor seem to be in his own world and all the services are jumbled up. Plumber came on Monday instead. Electrical works weren't done and will not be done until 29 Oct. Solid surface hasn't arrived till now, and no paint touch ups so far. I was pretty upset when I went back to the place last night. Quite disappointed especially when I saw so many defects.Also, I tried to contact him yesterday morning and he machiam dead. No sound no picture. I needed to know it someone will be around cos the bedroom lights are faulty and contractor insisted I get the boss (from where I bought my lights) to come take a look. But then contractor say it's not his business. The light casing came off eventually... And contractor said I bought cheap lights. It's only bedroom lights but still it costs almost 90 bucks Loh. I'm super du lan by the contractor's attitude and character. Edited October 19, 2011 by Ngan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ngan 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) Hey bros and sis, need some help.I bought a cooker hood and hob from Turbo and am shocked to find out that the hood doesn't come with a 3-pin plug! Is that normal? What do I do with it and will the warranty be void if I install the 3-pin plug myself?Just met the contractor at my house and really blood boil when I talk to him. I only asked a simple question like why is the light casing crooked? And he swamped me with blames on the light and the shop where I bought the light from. My friend was with me and she, too agreed that his attitude and tone of speech totally cannot make it.Urrggghhh, I'm just complaining here as an outlet cos I really am fed up with him.
