rclxub.gif  why different so much ? Contractor B including tiles while Contractor A doesnt. May I know whats the market price now ?

I look at the thread before, the range +-5 right? contractor A seems like over quote, which is 7+4+ 2.5 without tiles...

I also need other contractor for this, appreciate if you guys can share some good sifu contact here smile.gif Thanks.

Feruni is a company sourcing their product from China.
The quality is quite good. (Personal view when I was out tiles hunting)
They mainly bring in big sized tiles.
(Nowadays all big sized tiles are from China)
Generally their price are not cheap.

This is my experience with FERUNI. There are pros and cons using them. First, after spending some time looking at their beautiful showroom, I felt inspired and had great ideas for my own bathroom tiles. After a lot of discussion about tiles, their quality,my preferred color scheme ect. ect. they said they would do a proposal based on our discussion. They got my bathroom measurements from my PIC (person in charge) of the renovation. Then they gave me a quote......I was surprised at the sum .........but we cannot judge until we see the designs. Unfortunately, when i saw the designs, i was not impressed - to me they were not special or spectacular for the $$$$ they were charging. AND the prices were MYR not Chinese yuan or HKG dollars. I asked for a discount, they said not much can be offered. Guess what, i took my business elsewhere. But i felt confident to do so because I knew what I wanted exactly. To sum up, i'd say Feruni is for those who have no idea about what they want in color, combination, or tiles/or highlights and need help choosing and visualizing. Basically they do a 3d design for you, like Kitchen specialists, so u can visualize. That is why their price is higher by 50% if not more, from regular tile places. I have observed people in tile shops going it alone or with their contractors and chosen some awful looking tiles, i personally think these people need help from a place loke Feruni. However, if u are confident u know what u want and need, u can put together a great design with minimum help.
