How come Erny hasn't reply my PM sad.gif . Met a contractor today who introduce to me last week as 'The guy who does grills & gate' He has a builder partner...Then later on claimed that he is a designer as well.

So today while discussing about the renovation design...he doesn't really know what I'm talking about and does not know what to propose. An I wanted a plaster ceiling design that I saw from Squareroom magazine and he said 'No one does a design like that...Tau keh soh..not nice' (Bloody hell call me Tau Keh Soh..I'm not even 30) Then I took out the magazine and showed him..he said ..'oh..'...

I'm afraid this is a Con-tractor with very little experience...who else can recommend a good contractor to me? My Place is in Bandar Parklands, Klang

if you need a plaster ceiling contractor, can introduce my brother to you. he works in plaster ceiling for more than 20 years already (now he 39years old). i used to work part time with him during school holiday when i still a student.

i'm not trying to put the adv here, if you really need that, then only i PM to you. he can give you quotation

thanks

oops, I just saw. Haih..I was very detail..up to where i want to put what, door direction, space for washing machine, twin sink, how many drawers, where i want the drawers to be..where I want the breakfast table/bar to be..(I want it by the garden window so that I can look out when I'm having breakfast)..Then I also draw the design of breakfast table and the foyer partition design for him..and told him i want three 4x4 inch timber on both side of the wall..with glass of 2inch between each timber....

So detail leh...wanna save him the headache mah...i duwan too give him too much to think..so i think already then just let him tell me if the space is do-able...the everything say ok...then later when my dad ask about my sink and the gradient..then baru he say need to check..maybe cannot...before that tell me can...wat if after i put the sink there then water cannot flow??

yor...so worried lor....I come here for opinions and help...see everyone's design and appliances...so that i dont simply spent...die later...

Thanks..I replied your pm also d

Glass+ paper (or spray paint)+ plywood backing i think

3g door cannot put handle one...can have those build on to the frame only..but shiny and nice..easy to clean i think...

Erny, I've received the quotation but not very keen on some design area. I would like to come to the showroom and would like to suggest that you put GPS coordinates for your showroom instead of just address..easier to find.

In the meantime, can you just PM me the coordinates?

I want to know, if I get granite top for the kitchen from kitchen cabinet supplier, do I still need to get the contractor to construct the concrete top? If so How thick must it be? I dont want it to be bulky.

And if I were to get the granite top from kitchen cabinet supplier, are they going to cut the hob hole for me or I need the contractor to do it?

I can say they are the same person. Weird, last time there was someone trying to sabo me as well. A forumer found out and reported to admin, admin suspended his fake and main account. However, his main account got activated back after a few days, the reason he gave was "My, brother was using my account, we share the same laptop" Same reason.....

Yes you can post how cheap you can offer online but there is no guarantee you wont slaughter the customers back in another way to bring the profit up. For example kitchen sinks, some seller sell the waste separately while it should b free with the sink. Johnson Suisse, some ppl give cheap china seat covers worth RM 10-20 only instead of original Johnson Seat cover.

Just my advise to members, steve, erny, elegance and etc those few main and reputable KC here, if you feel their price is cheaper from other shops outside and you feel comfortable to deal with them den just confirm the deal, you can get someone cheaper than them but there is a risk of getting poor quality, poor workmanship or etc. Their price and quality are proven here by many forumers, why still seek for other KC?

Best comment so far.

My reno still pending. Quotation clarification in progress. Once confirm then only buy other things...scared kena tipu then buy things already cannot install
