Taz89 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 Hi All, Anyone engaged ID Urban Habitat Design for their reno? How is the workmanship and service? We received a quote from them and is reasonable compared to engaging Contractors. However their payment term is not flexible. Asking 10% Upon confirmation, 40% before commencement of site and Masonry works , 40% before confirmation and fabrication of carpentry and 10% Handover. Although this is standard payment terms, we tried negotiating but not successful. 50% payment required even before starting any work. Appreciate any feedback.

Hwmook 2 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 My payment terms are similar. 10% upon confirmation, 40% upon commencement, 45% upon capentry installation, 5% upon completion. You will be hard pressed to find any ID which give you favourable terms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Onyxz 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2017 I find it very scary. Too many cases of renovation left unfinished or poorly done once the big portion is paid.

You will be hard pressed to find any ID which give you favourable terms. 45% upon carpentry installation is not as bad as 45% upon measurement of carpentry. At least you get to see the carpentry in your house and can see the quality before paying. Try to negotiate for at least 10-15% final payment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
