From the cases above i would sum up that when u pay cheap u get cheap workmanship from any contractor. So any renovation works should be reasonably priced. If you wanna renovate your house please get at least 5 quotation from the contractor and study them carefully. The more detail the quotation is the more you know about that contractor.

yes you are right....90% of them are the same...they all tamak...all project they want at the end cannot finish...i know one genuine contractor....building my neighbour house big house Rm400K++..and i found out the contractor is my friend friend..he is very good...he is not tamak cause he is religous man...he only take on job only at one time.....after finish this job..later move on to other job...everyday he is at side and most of the time he also work with his worker..he will at site from 8-5 pm...i always keep his number..in case someone one to do reno...nearly every saturday i go there chat with him....beside with my experice on my reno house..i also learn a lot from him..thank to him...he is genuine contractor....

yaa...about your contractor his brither must be the same cause from the same family...difficult to find genuine contractors nowadays..everybody claim he is contractor but sometime cangkul pun never pegang and tamak somemore...
to story more about this genuine contractor that i telling before that building my new soon to be neighbour...he is 'tabligh' fellow (in malay he consider religious man)...he DO NOT own mercedes nor big 4 wheel drive ..he just use normal car...my newly soon to be neigbour is consider cerewet fellow and consider sombong cause never tegur me..he think he rich.....change there change there when reno but do want tambah harga..but this contractor very sabar...at the end of the day..this contractor told me after 99% completed....he told me he rugi with my neighbour....just cukup makan aje...but he never ran away..he slowly negotiate with the my neighbour to top sikit for him to finish job... at last my soon to be neighbour gave him about RM15K out of total RM400 ++....susah mau cari this kind good of contractor.... i learn a lot from him...to add on ...he also learn a lot from me  ....for matter that he do no know cause i like to do research on reno...his name is Joha. Previously i advised Joha..he will rugi the way the owner style to change here and there...he told me..he pity the owner..... He use all approved material such all BS steel etc...if i got time i will post my neighbour house so so big double 1/2 storey bungalow for only if i can remember from Joha cost RM397 +RM15 = RM412 K.
i don t believe such big house cost RM412K only.

who want that contractor number just PM me.

to story more..i regret do not take him as my contractor...he did my neighbour house 2 months earlier from my house...i also ask his quotation for my house...and at last did big mistake to hire the con contractor Zakaria.
TQ

Hi Bro,

I hardly recommend to house owner but you can call him dissussed..normally he will finish one job first then move to new job...i give you 2 number one is Joha another is Bibit (his is indon but already got PR, he used to be worker but now he is own contractor, he just finished built his own bungalow at sg buloh..  ...fo Bibit he take all job simulatneously....)...i got a few numbers but now i give you 2 only..

1. Joha 0133681704
2. Bibit 0123126782

both are genuine cause he himself do the work.

how about the indon worker i gave you before..has you called him??

by the way bro.. forgot to mention the Bibit i gave you he normally refuse to sambung other contractor job cause he afraid that you previous contractor will serang him...but you can try call him...maybe he want...
bro,

If you know whr his new project is, why dont you go there and look for him instead of just calling? Can also make a scene there haha
