warlock8187 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2011 I would recommend Zenterra Engineering. Contact no: 68998398They done up my house electrical works recently...they did a good job...I saved around $300 than my ID electrician...I considered them because they did have a retail shop. Feels much secure/stable... Just had my house electrical done by Zenterra. Work was smooth and fast. Ah Di was the main man doing the works and I find him a responsible and knowledgable guy. Thumbs up for him. Would recommend him for his services. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peggytan 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2011 Hello everyone, i would love to recommand Sebastian. Engaged his services to rewired our 5 rms flat. Had ask some other electrician recommanded in this topic to come over to quote as well as Sebastian. Though Sebastian is not the cheapest among all, but his respond is the fastest. After seeing the recommandation of Sebastian, my hubby and i decided to go with him.Sebastian is friendly and easy to talk with. As mentioned, this guy is really young but experience. The first site meeting with Sebastian and my Designer is an eye opener. Can really tell how experience he is as he went through the points needed for our unit and even my designer got to come to me and say "Wow, where you find this electrician? He knows his stuffs well". My hubby and i were really impressed and glad that we engaged the right person for the job.The first day of electrical work (Dismantling of old cables), Sebastian and his team came at 9am, start dismantle all the electrical stuffs and the old lightings and so on. He really made the effort to take care of our marble flooring. my hubby even got his brothers to standby to clean up the unit after Sebastian and his guys is done with the dismantling, around 3 pm, we received a msg from Sebastian saying the dismantling is completed. So my hubby and i and his brothers went to the unit to do cleaning, when we step into the unit, we were really surprised. the whole unit is clean and cleared. Guess Sebastian and team had cleaned up the place and the debis. Really Next, wiring works, Sebastian brought his team of 3 to our unit and start the wiring works. They have started at 9am and ended at 7pm. My hubby received his msg at 7pm that they have completed the wiring works. My hubby says cannot believe it lo so he wanted to go to the unit to check. He came back home with a surprised face. YES they've completed the wiring works! My Designers called the next day and say he was impressed too. My Designer also says that "Your electrician is giving me pressure lo, do thing so fast then i also must keep up to his pace"Next, Installation of Fans and lightings. Just for your information, we have in total of 42 downlights and 5 ceiling lights and 2 fans to be installed. Guess what? Sebastian came in the morning with 2 of his guys and they completed the job in a day again. Seriously very determind and hardworking guy he is. My hubby was at the unit "So call inspect the progress" said Sebastian does the installation himself too. My huuby even ask Sebastian why he as a boss got to do the installation himself. Guess what, he says thats how he motivate his guys, by working together is the way to bond. hahahaha. Lastly, Installation of sockets and handover. Sebastian came with just one of his guy and finished up the works and he went around doing the final touch up and he handed over our unit to us 3 weeks ago. My hubby and i was really happy with the service Sebastian had provided us right from the start. He got very high standards on his workmanship and his workers. That's why my hubby and i agrees that our electrical work is in safe hands. Really glad that we had made the right choice in selecting Sebastian to be our electrician. Was satified with everything so far. Oh yes and not forgeting his high standard for lights fittings, this boss will go around the unit doing the measurements and use his LASER to make sure that our downlights were in line. super duper professional. Sorry for the long winded testimonal, But seriously would recommand Sebastian highly. You will not regret in engaging his services. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lms_sharon 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2011 Any idea whether do we have to check if the electrician we gonna hire needs to be a licensed one?Like the mentioned famous Sebastian, Ah keong, Zenterra etc, before engaging them, do u check & verify if they are the licensed electrician approved by the authorities? http://elise.ema.gov.sg/elise/homepage_public_menu.jsp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mach 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2011 Hi, Has anyone here engaged an electrician/contractor to conceal the OpenNet cabling in their false ceiling? I have completed my renovations last year, but it is only now that OpenNet is scheduled to install the cabling in my block. OpenNet contractors will only run the cables with trunking but I want to have the cable run through the false ceiling, and I have to get my own electrician to do so. Still looking for a one who can do the job. Any recommendations? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
