Homeowner 1 Report post Posted March 3, 2007 Hi kenmura, welcome! Here's a suggestion: do a detailed list of what you want to do and get the IDs/ contractors to quote you based on the list and your floor plan. Then, you are able to compare apple to apple. Remember to put in the details: e.g. cost of tiles required, installation inclusive or exclusive of sanitary items 'cos some might be cheaper but give you cheaper tiles. !! Don't forget to ask them how long they'll take. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cantona7 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2007 (edited) Morning Bro,We had break our contract with one ID before and they threaten to sue us 20%. Luckily we were firm and we only forfeit our deposit. It was a painful experience but we are veri happy nw, cos finally we got a reliable ID.As long you didnt signed any contract with them then u are safe. Moreover after giving them $100 fees they still take their own sweet time to draw the prospective drawing, tis can prove hw efficient they are. (Note: $100 can c their working attitude) Edited March 5, 2007 by Cantona7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do nothing yet wants $100-$500...I remember did come across a ID who draws everything for free but overall package was cut throat.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Odielim 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2007 well, guess what he can do now is get other quotations..and maybe call up the ID and request for drawings and stuff lor...they delay so long also nothing comes out... not a good impression from them.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

krisietong 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2007 hihi Kenmura..I had seen ur floorplan.. your MBR and kitchen is big!! In your MBR, I think U can put a Wiw at the space beside the door and conceal the toilet door.. I think my EA is too compartmentalised.. so rooms r smaller.. haiz, that's a pity. Anyway, enjoy the wait~ it will take ard 1.5-2 mths to collect the keys.. ensure that ur CPF is sufficient for 2 mths installment for the loan beside the stamp and legal fees. My hubby and I was not aware of that, but was lucky that we have enough CPF. meanwhile, go source for reno ideas and furniture and electrical applicances Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
