Just wanted to know of contact details of contractors that you have employed to do you renovation or have heard about from others. The following criterias are important:

1) Price
2) Quality of workmanship
3) Speed of work
4) Good working knowledge of latest products in the market
5) Friendly & trustworthy

Appreciate your feedback! Thanks!

I plan to do the following work for my condo in KL:

1) Painting
2) Plaster ceiling with cornice for hall, dining and bathroom (no cornice here)
3) Some electrical work (including hacking n conceling some wiring)
4) New aluminium door for balcony storage area
5) Installation of lights, fans, hood & hob
6) Polishing of existing marble floor

I estimate the total cost would be less than RM 10K. Any recommendations for good and reliable contractors?

I would recommend my contractor. We built our house from a single storey semi-d to a double storey with him and he is now currently working on my apartment that I will be renting out. Plaster ceiling, reno, hacking, etc......good range of home furnishing like curtain also. Managed to get high end fabric for my own home and not so expensive range for rental apartment. Satisfied, all in all.

Best in quality, price n speed?

Hmmm im currently renovating my house…. To be frank the contractor I appointed according to the others quotation I quoted.. they were not the cheapest… I have seen some of their ongoing job and compare with others I find that I like their workmanship with their sales service better than others… I always believe that good thing no cheap and cheap thing no good…. Well of course this is in my own opinion…

Whats the point to engaged a cheap cheap contractor and having so much trouble at the end? I see some sharing those who actually paying up double the cost just because their contractor runs away or left the job undone or drag the owner time… isn’t that much issue? I would rather pay a little more and get the things done with better workmanship….

Talking about the BEST quality? Hmmm I doubt if the contractor can do a 100% best quality in renovation…. See their work is done by mankind n not machine for sure there are here and there a little defects… to me is fine as long as the contractor is responsible and comes back to repair…
U can see my sharing at https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3235961 so far this contractor has not failed me yet..

Sorry if I offended some of you in the forum… tis my own personnel view =) all the best to those who is looking for a contractor…

Hey Phiphi99, you still looking for someone?

My fren used this new site is called www.kaodim.com to find his contractor. He showed to me the other day, he just answered a few questions about what he needed, uploaded a floorplan, click submit then he got responses from 4-5 contractors with their prices to compare. He made arrangements wit one of them, he said quite good. forget the name of the contractor.

some couldn't quote because they needed to do a site visit but most of them could give some estimate prices. Can see the profiles of the contractors, read about their experience, message them too. Thought it was quite cool.

Anyway maybe you can try it out. I'm also looking for someone to do some minor works- install grills urgently. I'll probably try that site and hire straight away. No point keep looking.

Good luck!

Please beware when using this company for aircon, water plumbing, rooftop, electrical service: Perkhxdmatan Hup Yat

Handphone: Ah Lai 012-287644x
Evon 012-687204x
Office Tel: 03-4270 709x

I asked them to wash 1.5HP Inverter aircon. They said the RM160.00 price is all-in inclusive with gas (coolant), After they washed, they said already add 2 bar gas, need RM40 extra, so become RM200.

I was not happy with this, I called them, they said since when I promise to give you RM160 inclusive of gas? I said you told me this in telephone.

They didn't dismantle the aircon, they only wash the casing, and put chemical and splash the outdoor unit with water. less than 40 minutes in total.

I asked them why didn't you dismantle the aircon to wash? They said if always dismantle, the aircon is prone to malfunction. I told them many people outside also dismantle the aircon to wash. If only splash water like this, outside only collects RM100.00. He said I have my price standard. I told him this is not logic excuse.

The female boss said to me maybe you only use the aircon for first year, you dun have knowledge. I asked her, you see the aircon downstair, is it possible I only begin to use the aircon? or the first time I find people to wash aircon? She changed the topic.

The male boss said RM40 is small amount, I dun want to argue with you. I only collect you RM160 enough. I told him, this is not the money problem. This is related to whether it is logic or not.

You din dismantle the aircon, you refill 2 bars (This upstair aircon has only 1 year history) and then you charge me extra, before you said RM160 is all in unless the gas are almost all gone.

He said, dismantle the aircon to wash is antique method. He is using latest Singapore technology. In Malaysia rarely have people use. I said yaloh, rarely have people only splash the water and charge RM160.00.

I asked him, you only splash the water from outside is cleaner, or you dismantle it and splash it from everywhere is cleaner?

He said new technology is 100% same with dismantle method. Dismantle the aircon to do deep cleaning is sakai method. You dun know aircon. Many sakai outside also dun know aircon.

I said Yes, I dun know aircon, but I know market price.

He said he doesn't want to talk with me anymore. He said you pay RM160 and this is settled. I dun want to talk with you.

I said, boss, you cannot do business in this way. If like that, I wont give business to you anymore. He said you give me I also dun dare to accept lah. I have plenty of businesses to do. Very busy.
You only wash 1 aircon, not 100 aircons. This RM40 I give you.

Then the conversation ended.

This is typical bait and switch.

bait-and-switch
noun
the action (generally illegal) of advertising goods that are an apparent bargain, with the intention of substituting inferior or more expensive goods.
"a bait-and-switch scheme"

Hi, newbie here.
my parents wanted to renovate our house and found a contractor contact from a magazine (more like a pamphlet), his name is Wilson.

This Mr Wilson is based in Seremban and my house is in Serdang. He claimed that he had did quite a lot of construction and had a construction company.

My house was 22x70 sq ft. The renovation that we planned to make was
1. Extend both ground and 1st floor to the end
2. extend the front living room 5sqft forward
3. make some partition by building walls
4. repair the roof which was always leaking
5. change the floor tile with 2x2
6. painting and wiring

He promised us that it will be done within 6 months and until now he had just came for around 5 times.
1st time is when coming to make quotation,
2nd time is to clean the roof
3rd time is to continue cleaning the roof,
4th time is to clean the parking lot cement
and 5th time is to continue cleaning the cement.

He gave us alot of excuses that he got dfficulty in getting permission to proceed from the local authority, although he gave us a floor plan, but the plan is in wrong format.
When i asked him why is it takes so long time and what can i do, i ended up get scold from him and he even asked us to go to the MP to get approval. When we asked from the floorplan from him, he said it was his company's property and dont want to let us have it.

So no choice, he had wasted around half year basically doing nothing for us, so we had decided to go to MPSJ ourself. At that time we found out that the floorplan he did was in wrong format,and the officer incharge was very effecient. The following few days they already follow up and send an architect to draw a plan for us.
So the question is, is this contractor im hiring is a reliable one? He had FFK us most of the time, and asked for money a few times (about 50k from total 130k his estimation eventhough seems like no progress at all).

So a few opinion i need from all the sifu's here.
1. Do i need to wait for him to continue after got the plan and approval from MPSJ or i should hire another contractor/ ID instead?
2. Do anyone have any contact of contractor/ internal design based in Serdang/ Kajang/ Putrajaya with good reputation/labour/ efficiency with reasonable cost?
Thanks.

Hi!!

If you are looking for contractor for house renovation, I would like to recommend the contractor that I am using. Reason being is he is really good, honest and reliable. thumbsup.gif His price is also very competitive.

For Indon a lot of people worried that they will run away, but rest assured he will not as his family is here and his kids go to sch in Malaysia. He is really good as he give me sound advises and rather honest with me when it comes to charges. He done for a few of my friends already that why I am confident to say that he is really responsible with his job.

If you are keen you can check with him, ask him to quote and compare outside (please compare apple to apple ya). Just say Joanne recommend. he will give you a good price biggrin.gif

Feel free to ask me anything about his work biggrin.gif

Hi Guys,
Just for sharing on my 1st house renovation experience.
Nowadays price may not is a main concern already but is the outcome, some may offer cheap price but the result you will not believe in/imaging. make argument with them, they can be just pretending nothing happen and just ignore or some may show you faces and starting bin bang here and there.

Have to keep searching other contractors until I meet this contractor, he not just only helped me resolve my issues, he also giving advice on what to do now and next.

I found him is a reliable person and also providing reasonable price for my house renovations.

Maybe you try to approach him to compare price for your house renovation.

His name is SAM, 016-270 6505
Just tell him you get his contact from neway

Happy Renovation....!!!!

Hi!!

If you are looking for contractor for house renovation, I would like to recommend the contractor that I am using. Reason being is he is really good, honest and reliable.  :thumbsup:  His price is also very competitive.

For Indon a lot of people worried that they will run away, but rest assured he will not as his family is here and his kids go to sch in Malaysia. He is really good as he give me sound advises and rather honest with me when it comes to charges. He done for a few of my friends already that why I am confident to say that he is really responsible with his job.

If you are keen you can check with him, ask him to quote and compare outside (please compare apple to apple ya). Just say Joanne recommend. he will give you a good price biggrin.gif

Feel free to ask me anything about his work biggrin.gif

Hi there,

You may want to check with SAM @ 016 - 270 6505. I had him to quote for my back extension but the size is smaller than yours.

I think is better for you to talk to the expert because they need to know your requirements and how you want to renovate as well.

You can check their website

Hope this help you. Most importantly, they charged at reasonable price. I know because I personally did few thorough comparisons before I engaged the services provider.

Met a sh*tty contractor, at first quotation came with great deal, then add on item came in unreasonably, once payment received then u will never get to reach him. Now my project is abandoned just like that. Knew him via LYN platform within this thread. That guy hardly post anything here, just reach his victim via PM. If u currently engaging with a contractor same way as i did please beware... Not sure whether I'm allowed to post his contact and photo here or not, but u may PM me for his detail if u need...

My current contractor so far the best I've deal with.. Price is reasonably low and come with relatively good workmanship. Most important is that he is not a calculative person, easy going person and will always try to accommodate with owner's request. He is based in Puchong and can be reach at 016-6014217 (Ah Hou).

Is good to share out the bad contractor.

For all new to renovation, contractor can be good for one reno and turn bad on another. While some conman/bad contractor uses fake id, buy "recommendation/posting" too.

Therefore is better to get 3 or more contractors to quote, and compare. Especially the project are big.

Just my 2 cents of advice.

Haha.. I am sure I do not know this guy thou.. Tiles and wiring he use all Chinese sifu and for wet work worker, mostly Indon. I compared 1-2 contractors before and his price is acceptable. Carpentery work he will get his affiliate to quote you directly, he will not get involved. He doesn't speak English nor write, so text him in Mandarin or call him directly better. Sometime it also depending on your gut feels whether can gel well with contractor as the renovation is a lengthy process. Happy Hunting mate.

Hi

I am a newbie !

Looking to paint the exterior of my double storey house plus the roof. size 22 x70

There is a quite bad crack on the kitchen extension which needs to fixed.
some have adviced to hack, put in mash wire and plaster it, others say no point for mash wire, just hack and plaster....my back kithchen is on slightly rised land...dono if the crack is due to earth movement or no piling done when its was done many yrs ago....the crack is aggrevated now that the side road is heavily used by vechiles.

The awning is quite old any suggestions has to the options avail ie paint / polycarbornate/ roof tiles....I am not sure which options to choose coz;
painting will not last and not sure hw it will look once painted
poly/ roof - cost wise do no if worthy coz planning to renov in few years (<3yrs)

As for painting the rood need advice whether to repaint or put new tiles ...cost wise are they the same. No problems with the roof just thinking in terms of taking care of the tiles and giving it a fresh look.


The house has not been painted for awhile so needs TLC.

All recommendations and suggestions welcomed. Also any good reliable contractors - workmanship, quality, cost reasonable, reliable. If they do ID design is good so i can engage them when i do reno later when i have the budget.

Grills, fascia board, gutter, ceiling all things extrior needs attended to.

Thank you all.

Hi,

I would like to recommend my contractor Mr.Aaron 010-2032888. He did a good job for me. Before Aaron I tried few contractor, the price is cheap but I'm headache to make every decision & the quality is not good. Through recommended by a friend, I get to known Aaron. Honestly the price is not as what we expected CHEAP but we still decide to engaged with him. After we engaged him, we have no regret on our decision. He helps us on design & the quality is much more better compared with previous contractor.

All my relatives saw my house design & renovation quality. They engaged him after me too. Everyone of us was happy with the design & the service from him because he will design for us, we just peace of mind during renovation period.

What we could said was if you are looking for QUALITY, for sure Mr.Aaron (010-203 2888) will be the one.

The price is reasonable and most important he will give suggestions to us on renovating / repair to save cost at the same time quality is preserved . Likewise, he also introduce me on where should i buy the materials on a cheaper price. I introduced to my friends and LYN member as well and they are happy with it.

Here is the contact i would like to share if anyone need a reliable contractor.

I highly recommend my contractor, Unc Stephen. He's a retiree now and do renovation as a hobby. He's a civil Engineer and very good in terms of maximizing the space as you need someone who knows how to calculate when you touch the main structure/ beam of the house. He was a small developer and also built many of the toyota showroom and etc. He has renovated my bungalow house very well, very fast and able to recommend the cheapest supplier. i've recommended mny ppl and so far the feedback is positive. U can call him to have a chat 0162201966 and mention TC recommended him.

Hi, I'm looking around for a contractor to renovate an old 1250sf condo I have just bought.

I need the work to begin in mid October/early September. Getting married in end Oct too, so budget will be tight.

Major items include demolishing kitchen wall, altering water piping, removing wall & floor tiles and retiling the kitchen, building a concrete kitchen counter top, complete remodelling of both bathrooms (retiling, removal of bathtub, install new WC & sink etc), waterproofing the walls & full repaint of the condo.

Can you PM me some samples of Achik's work and cost...?

For any reno job, you can contact Ah Hou @ 0166014217. He is one of the most responsible contactor out there. Not only me saying that, a few of my friends were using him says that too. He is hands on type contractor, therefore he may decline you if he think is not able to cope with jobs.

5) Have good 3rd party contacts for curtains & wardrobe (better if in house)

I am very particular about quality and works programme and im familiar with general construction pricing. To reno contractors who are interested, please post your general experience, value of work u have undertaken and area of coverage in the comments section below. Do not PM. I will PM those whom I think are good.

Those who want to recommend good contractors pls ensure they are ones which you have used before personally and not just based on 3rd party info.

Thanks in advance!  notworthy.gif

If that's the criteria for a MD or CEO then it must be a RM2 company.

Anyway, I found a reno contractor that fulfils about 95% of that criteria. So all good now.

I am renovating my 3 storey shop now. The contractor is very good. He is experienced with almost everything (tiling, painting, roofing, electrical, plumbing), So I just need to buy the materials and he will do it for me.

For tiling, I spent around RM 5.80 per ft (labour only). The price is a bit higher, because the method we use is very different from the market.

I want him to put Susu and Cement Adhensive on every pieces of tiles before installing it. The price also includes removing of existing tiles and 2 - 3" concrete floor.

I bought the materisl from Kong Mee Puchong.

1. Weber Super Star RM 18
2. Weber Susu RM 185
3. YTL Cement RM 16
4. Sand RM 120 per scoop

I don't want TOFU jobs. I am a very particular person who insist on quality materials and works.

The company is S & W Renovation

https://www.facebook.com/S-W-Interior-Desig...36247339997304/


For Alarm and CCTV, I am using EE Automation & Technology Sdn Bhd. This company has been around for 20 over years. I used them for my house and old shop back in year 2003. The products and services are very good. But the price is higher than the market price. Because i use high quality equipment and cables. For my new shop, I am having a very sophisticated systems, so most of the alarm & cctv companies don't know how to do. This is the contact 012 - 405 8791 http://eeautomation.com.my/

My requirements and expectation are very high, so I pay higher price to these companies.

The contact for my Interior Designer is in another phone. His name is Yijo. I will post it later.

Hi!!

If you are looking for contractor for house renovation, I would like to recommend the contractor that I am using. Reason being is he is really good, honest and reliable.  :thumbsup:  His price is also very competitive.

For Indon a lot of people worried that they will run away, but rest assured he will not as his family is here and his kids go to sch in Malaysia. He is really good as he give me sound advises and rather honest with me when it comes to charges. He done for a few of my friends already that why I am confident to say that he is really responsible with his job.

If you are keen you can check with him, ask him to quote and compare outside (please compare apple to apple ya). Just say Joanne recommend. he will give you a good price biggrin.gif

Feel free to ask me anything about his work biggrin.gif

Achik claimed he is a honest contractor, and I started believing him.

He claimed he can do everything, I don't have to find different contractor for electrical, roof etc

And his price about 30% cheaper

I told him I wanted by one month, he agreed too

Then work starts...workers only attend about two three times a week

His extension kitchen wall is obviously not straight, from outside and inside look... Then both window cavities on the new walls uneven...have to hack again to fit windows without uneven gaps ceilings look uneven like dropping... Tiles uneven, his worker laid homogenus tiles meant for staircase in wet kitchen mix-up with kitchen tiles which are obviously different colours and thickness...walking barefoot can notice wrong tiles are higher... Kitchen floor gradient looks very obvious gradient, apparently to ease water flow

He hacked original staircase , after measurements and saying that it's fine to change layout...he hacked staircase concrete base for 1 mth than says new layout staircase not possible because there is beam crossing above will hit head if new layout...asked his proposal, he tells he can build the original staircase...

Then his worker applied marble tiles uneven, polish guy comes say it's so high need charge extra for grinding down and white cement all washed off, leaving gaping holes between marble tiles...

He started painting inside and outside while piping, hacking , cement, plaster works are still incomplete inside and outside the hse

After ask him to change wrong tiles in kitchen, he two weeks Raya holidays, one month ignore communications..already july house is hallway only done..after Raya holidays he tried sneak into house,without contacting or replying to me....
But I already changed locks and asked guard to stip him entering

The reno sampah tong left inside my porch gate, damaged the carpark, now hv to redo carpack.

he paint not cover floor, parquet got paint drops and cements

Part fault is agreedly me, I am noob, left everything to him in good faith..belieievd he is expert , he must know better and I never questioned his delays and work chronology and he will eventually honour his commitment.....I thought there is such thing as cheap but good, I believed there is still responsible contractors around... So it's my mistake to engage him in the first place without proper due diligence..I shouldn't not hv believed internet recommendations

Thanks for sharing your bad experience with this contractor. For major renovation, better engage a good and experience local contractor.

I suggest that you get another contractor to complete all the unfinished works.

I am sorry to hear about your situation. As I faced this before on my first house, therefore I rather not to go for cheap as one the main criteria of appointing a contractor. For my current house (which completed a year ago), I appointed a contractor (local Chinese) that are highly reliable and trustworthy. His price may not be the cheapest but it's very competitive given that he is using a good tiler, wire man, aircond installer etc..however, he can adjust the price if you can compromise with using a mediocre tiler, wire-man etc.. His workmanship were tip-top as he monitored his workers closely daily and hands on when it comes to major reno works. He will update you regularly (on alternate day basis if not daily) on job progress. Since he is hands on person, he only undertakes a 4-5 projects at one time in order to ensure high quality job will be delivered. I am not trying to sell him here but I think he deserved a full credit for what he had done and for being a highly responsible contractor. Even my ID friend is using him now for a few of his current project. I had shared his contact in the past, and here you go again 016-6014217 (Ah Hou). Cheers!!

The problem with majority local contractors is they seem not willing to take up small jobs. Hence, more people are looking for non-locals.

I totally agreed with you. Small job RM8k-10k may no longer attractive to them. For my contractor, I started engaged him with a small repairing works (balcony water proofing and tiles replacement - RM3.5k and a year later car porch tiles replacement - RM5k )at my old place. At least I testified his workmanship prior to my current house renovation.

I too based on 2 very positive comments, which now I have doubts

He is not hands on ..he just gets ppl and rotates them through all active projects he has..

He does not give or pass detailed instructions to his
Workers and he doesn't monitor their progress and does not check their work end of day

If you must insist on Achik, better you have tight grip on him, prepare schedule and list of works, patterns you want etc paste at your home and ask him to complete area by area and report daily. You definitely have to check progress daily with your own eyes. You should go visit his previous works and ask which of his worker did that particular job... Maybe I was unlucky, his good workers stuck other project and Achik sourced some restaurant workers to do my house instead..

If anybody is interested, I'm pretty happy with my contractor Mr Sin.

We needed to completely gut out condo - remove all floor tiles, all fittings & all built-in furniture, install all new water pipes & plumbing, extend kitchen by removing dry area wall, retile the kitchen walls & floor, build concrete & tile kitchen counter + bar counter, completely retile both bathroom walls & floors, install new bathroom fittings, convert shower area into a laundry room, retile the master bedroom, living, dining & hallway with 2x2 tiles, retile the balcony, refurbish the sliding door (new glass & rollers), change 3 windows to casement type, waterproof the outer wall & repaint the entire condo.

The cost came up to about RM40k (other companies were quoting RM60k-70k). And he completed everything in 6 weeks.

He shows up every day with his workers and works alongside them. He says he prefers to do small-medium jobs.

I hv renovated 4 times in the past, this has been the most pleasant experience yet.

He shows up every day with his workers and works alongside them. He says he prefers to do small-medium jobs.

I hv renovated 4 times in the past, this has been the most pleasant experience yet.

If that's the criteria for a MD or CEO then it must be a RM2 company.

Anyway, I found a reno contractor that fulfils about 95% of that criteria. So all good now.

I asked for discount instead, didn't go through the late delivery charges calculation

The initiation stage of engagement was good, prompt and he did his due diligent as a professional vendor in recommendation.

When it comes to delivery, things are late. We are talking about weeks of delayed, not days.

His contact info. Decent guy, decent quotation... been honest with me all throughout the reno process. Basically I was happy to just get a guy who doesn't disappear after taking the first 10%, leaving the work to a bunch of clueless Indons who do work only 2-3 days a week.

Tell him the Athenaeum guy in Bukit Antarabangsa recommended him to you on LYN.

Hello contractors of lowyat forum, may I know how much u charge for making this type of sliding door (refer pic)?
Like most houses, living room is linked to the kitchen via a big entry way, which is about 8 feet wide and 10 feet high. i want to have a sliding door so that i can close it when cooking. Preferably 3 pieces of sliding door (so the opening space is bigger).

Ramai yang bertanya tentang Garispanduan Ubahsuai Kediaman Rumah Teres dan Program Pemutihan yang dijalankan oleh DBKL.

Untuk program pemutihan DBKL memberi peluang kepada pemilik yang sebelum ini tidak memperolehi kelulusan untuk submit pelan permohonan dan mendapatkan permit. Tertakluk kepada undang-undang kecil bangunan. Pada dasarnya kesemua tambahan yang berada didalam lot pemilik akan diberikan permit setelah membuat submission pelan.

Hi, sadly I did not get Mr Sin's contact. When would you be needing your renovation work? I've engaged another contractor and currently it's been 1 week and I have no complaint.

The price is reasonable and the best thing I like about him is that he provide us with relevant and adequate advice without forcing us to take on his idea even if we decided to proceed with ours (he would let us know what happen if we decide to proceed with our choice and if we're okay with it he would try his best to get what we want) .

If yours is not urgent, I would share my experience with my current contractor once everything done. (Eta another 3 weeks to 1 month)

Hi, my renovation is in last touch up phase (after our comments) and will be done today.

My comment is that their carpentry work is beautiful and sturdy, highly recommended.

For other renovation work, the workmanship is so-so. Nothing to complain about yet nothing to be excited with.

He is however, very willing to satisfy his client's wants.

Whatever thing that we're not satisfied with, he would look into it and fix it to his best ability.

(From fixing a drawer that couldn't be opened smoothly, to a scratch on the wardrobe mirror, he made the effort to rectify once we point it out.)

All in all, I would recommend him. (Since his price is still quite competitive among the 4 contractor that I've got a quotation from)

Pros: i) Project delivered on time as promised (would even include buffer time for client's inspection and touch up)
ii) Price reasonable
iii) Willing to solve any problem that we raise.
iv) Honest
v) Nice Carpentry work
vi) Constant update on progress (although sometimes it wasn't even necessary)

Cons: i) Slight poor workmanship in tiling (tiling work not too even, it's still comfortable to step on and touch since
the unevenness is more of an eye sore )
ii) No actual measurement given when asked to purchase thing (e.g: asked us to get Deka baby fan to replace
the master bedroom fan, once we got it, he measured and mentioned it's too long and asked to buy another
shorter model)

Usually people engage contractor, do you guys already have own idea what to be done?
*
We had an idea of what to be done. But our contractor Mr Sin provided advice on the best way to do them i.e. windows, drainage & water supply for dishwasher and washing machine. He also went with us to the tile shop to advice on what tile is the most suitable for the different parts of the house and quantity.

Hi, my renovation is in last touch up phase (after our comments) and will be done today.

My comment is that their carpentry work is beautiful and sturdy, highly recommended.

For other renovation work, the workmanship is so-so. Nothing to complain about yet nothing to be excited with.

He is however, very willing to satisfy his client's wants.

Whatever thing that we're not satisfied with, he would look into it and fix it to his best ability.

(From fixing a drawer that couldn't be opened smoothly, to a scratch on the wardrobe mirror, he made the effort to rectify once we point it out.)

All in all, I would recommend him. (Since his price is still quite competitive among the 4 contractor that I've got a quotation from)

Pros: i) Project delivered on time as promised (would even include buffer time for client's inspection and touch up)
        ii) Price reasonable
        iii) Willing to solve any problem that we raise.
        iv) Honest
        v) Nice Carpentry work
        vi) Constant update on progress (although sometimes it wasn't even necessary)

Cons: i) Slight poor workmanship in tiling (tiling work not too even, it's still comfortable to step on and touch since
            the unevenness is more of an eye sore )
        ii) No actual measurement given when asked to purchase thing (e.g: asked us to get Deka baby fan to replace
            the master bedroom fan, once we got it, he measured and mentioned it's too long and asked to buy another
            shorter model)

For those who look for interior designer and renovation firm, pls beware of a company called M&C Gallery/M&C Concept and Design, the owner is called Melvin and Candy. They are irresponsible company that promise you a lot of things which end up nothing eventually. Only able to perform renovation with poor workmanship and keep on delaying the timeline. If you check the price with other company, their price is much more higher. The so called good quality also is just a lie.
If you are looking for interior design, make sure you don’t look for them. When you have problem and look for them to help, they will shout at you like they are doing for free. In fact, you have paid a lot of money to them.
They only will treat you good when try to trap you to sign the contact and pay them. Don’t look for them, you will regret!

Engaged Mr Yap for my house renovation, very pleasant experience dealing with him

1. Prompt reply
2. Awesome workmanship, even my tiler friend approve Yap's worker workmanship on subway tiles.
3. He is someone insist on long term sustainability and usability rather than just accepting user's requirement which can be non sense sometimes. He corrected me in few scenarios, or else i would have mess up
4. On time delivery, and he dont mind to revisit for loose item installation due to some late arrival accessories.

I contacted a few contractors in this page, and Yap price wasn't the cheapest among all (probably 10% above another contractor), but the price that you pay is worth it and you are working with him in peace of mind. The entire journey was good and we ended up become friend laugh.gif

Anyone who needs renovation or even small repair works in Penang, you can contact me. I know of one owner that tend to the works himself, with contracted workers whenever required depending on project requirements, so the cost is low, fast and meticulous.

Quality commensurates with the materials and budget you want, and you get decent advices on your ideas. This contractor is good if you appreciate straight forward approach from him cuz there's no frills to him, so you'll get honest opinions and solutions.

if you are looking for contractor to renovate your house, you may pm me as i have a good one to recommend (Indo supervisor worked here for more than 10 years). Most of the contractor did provide one year defect but most of the time they may not entertain you after completed the reno but for my case, i have contacted twice and he did come to fix the defects and hence i will strongly recommend him to you. He has not much work recently and hence i post here to see who is looking for a contractor.

Engaged Mr Yap for my house renovation, very pleasant experience dealing with him

1. Prompt reply
2. Awesome workmanship, even my tiler friend approve Yap's worker workmanship on subway tiles.
3. He is someone insist on long term sustainability and usability rather than just accepting user's requirement which can be non sense sometimes. He corrected me in few scenarios, or else i would have mess up
4. On time delivery, and he dont mind to revisit for loose item installation due to some late arrival accessories.

I contacted a few contractors in this page, and Yap price wasn't the cheapest among all (probably 10% above another contractor), but the price that you pay is worth it and you are working with him in peace of mind. The entire journey was good and we ended up become friend  laugh.gif

Need some advice here. I engaged a contractor and this are his advice..
1. I want to hack the ceiling to add 2 additional wires for the dining lights. He says the ceiling might crack, affect upstairs flooring, etc, better put plaster ceiling.
2. He is reluctant to hack the concrete wall to pull additional plug points, saying hard to hack, suggests using the (ugly) casement to run the wires. After insisting then he says ok.

I guess there are some merits to the suggestion. But, are they valid? Or is he just taking the easy way by using plaster ceiling?

That's what I realized too when I was getting quotes from the electricians (hired them separately). They are just not keen on hacking concrete walls/ ceiling. But brick wall seems ok.

I stood my ground when I was getting quotes that I will not be putting plaster ceiling for my 9ft by 5ft wet kitchen part. I suppose the previous hacking work for electric conduit by my contractor's wet works subcontractor for the dry kitchen had already set precedence for the work required for the wet kitchen.

So they quoted a 'higher' price cz they need to do hacking work in the wet kitchen and near main DB at living room which was fine with me.

The hacked area was not deep enough (didn't cut through the metal) so they didn't use conduit after checking with me. The cable was sticking out slightly after plastering and my contractor solved it by asking the tiler help tile over it.

Putting wire in walls without conduit has 2 problems. First problem is you need to remember where is the wire. If one day you decided to drill a hole and you just drill into wire as there is no protection. Second problem is wire buried in wall over time will degrade. When that happen you will keep having power trip problem. Fixing it will require to hack the wall again

Hmmm... That one is only a 8feet stretch. location is quite obvious.... There are too many cables running across it that I wouldn't even drill that part of the wall.

The electrician wanted to put 2 conduits in the concrete wall but it couldn't fit so only one.
1 of them contained all the usual cable 1.5mm +2.5mm Live earth neutrals.

The other one contained 2X16mm armoured cable and a 4mm earth wire... so that one he removed conduit before plastering.
Pic here: https://myglasgowkitchen.com/wp-content/upl...en-672x1024.jpg
Pic contains the conduit (the lower one) which was eventually removed.
The rest of the armoured cables + earth on wall e.g. living room he used conduit... where else existing plaster ceiling (bathroom + bedroom) he tried as long as there were no structures blocking.

I guess it shouldn't be a problem?

Armoured cable does not need conduit but the watt cable need. Earth cable need to be protected or good luck I. The future when got power trip. My experience with my other house is the earth cable having problem which could not be found. Power trip in my house can happen any time. Sometimes is so frequent as 40-50 times per day

I just did my SOHO unit and I am very satisfied with Mr. Sam's services. Hence promised him to return him a favor by posting here.

He is friendly, and always listen and meet my needs. Although i'm a bit fussy when it comes down to details, he always there to solve my problems.
I am surprised that he is also an interior designer. Ideas he has given to me are mush more practical and stylish. For my Soho, I has a wall full with air-con, window access to air-con compressor, TV area, and he manage to hide all the mess with beautiful design with functional cabinet.
The carpentry workmanship is good, and they will go all the way for perfection, even a minor crack on the edge, they will just change and replace whole laminates for me. The outcome of the actual carpentry is almost 90% close to the 3D I get initially.

However he bit late on delivery, I'm not too sure is it my fault that i keep ask him to change things around, but ultimately i'm happy with his service, his price isn't too expensive compare to a few contractor/ID that i ask for quotes. Will definitely work with him again in my future house. biggrin.gif

The carpentry workmanship is good, and they will go all the way for perfection, even a minor crack on the edge, they will just change and replace whole laminates for me. The outcome of the actual carpentry is almost 90% close to the 3D I get initially.

However he bit late on delivery, I'm not too sure is it my fault that i keep ask him to change things around, but ultimately i'm happy with his service, his price isn't too expensive compare to a few contractor/ID that i ask for quotes. Will definitely work with him again in my future house.  biggrin.gif

4. On time delivery, and he dont mind to revisit for loose item installation due to some late arrival accessories.

I contacted a few contractors in this page, and Yap price wasn't the cheapest among all (probably 10% above another contractor), but the price that you pay is worth it and you are working with him in peace of mind. The entire journey was good and we ended up become friend  laugh.gif

Anyone interested to do 3D drawings can share with me the name of your property or project, your floor plan, style/concept (if any), color preference, requirement of minimalist starter set of furniture/coverings/decorative in the drawing, budget for the entire renovation (so that the design/drawings would align to your budget).

Output will be 3D visualisation which i can recommend my certain contractors to you (or engage us for execution, in kl, johor or singapore) or you can just pass the drawings to your contractor.

I slowly come to realise that having preliminary drawing is essential, so that you visualise the end result earlier and decide whether to proceed.

I too engaged Mr Yap to do wet works and electrical work for my kitchen. I can attest to all the above and more. Mr Yap's men were made aware I was staying at the place and as such sealed up work area to minimise dust and cement from hacking and wet works. They cleaned up and actually vacuumed and mopped up every day without me asking them to. Mr Yap was extremely busy and was not able to be there a lot but his was in contact with his staff everyday and knew everything that was happening. His workers managed to knock down my kitchen counter (cement with granite top) without damaging the granite - something I had not expected. Because of that I was able to reuse the granite. Another thing about Mr Yap, even thought he may not be the cheapest, he was very conscious of costs. He would try to find the best and most cost effective solution to a problem.

I engaged Mr Yap based on reviews on this forum. Reviews of his work date back several years. They were all positive.

I highly recommend his service. His contact number is 0123291682.

No prob. I had 2 bad experiences - both were recommended by people we knew. We were paying the contractors as and when job was completed. Unfortunately they didn't pay their subcontractors who wanted us to pay them after we had paid the main contractors. The second contractor we got just disappeared without completing his work. This fella was even registered with CIDB. Unfortunately CIDB proved to me nothing more than a toothless tiger. I later found embedded somewhere in the forum, he did the same thing to another. NEVER EVER use a contractor called ETHAN Lee. Company: Axantas. Not only did he disappear on us, he never fixed problems.

So now, I do not rely on one recommendation. I look at the recommended person's history. Mr Yap has a good history dating a few years plus latest review was current.

GOOD LUCK with your renovation.

I did my house renovation recently by a contractor called Alex (012 - 200 2387) from AC Décor Builders Construction and owner of Sun Risings Hardware Trading in Segambut. He is very terrible, rude and irresponsible person.

1) My car park porch was leaking, so, he ask me to change the cutter. After renovated and money is paid, I notice it is still leaking. I called him but he yell at me and said it is none of his business because his work is to change cutter only. Subsequently, cannot reach him dy.

2) Bathroom – replace tile, basin and WC. The basin is leaking and he said I brought low quality products. I complaint him on the plastic water pipe very ugly and the position is incorrect. Then he ask me “Do u have money to change the water pipe’s position?”

3) Paint – He promise to use easy wash paint. At the end, I notice it is not easy wash paint. Then he said easy wash paint where got so cheap. Hello!! He prepared the quotation, not me!!

Please share this out, do not engage him for renovation!!!

While I sympathize with your problem but really u should take some responsibility yourself. You didn't know why your car porch is leaking and replaced the gutter. After replaced didn't check if leak still there and paid? You should pay only work is done right but one must know the problem and if the work fixes the problem.

On the ugly position of the pipe you should have agreed how it was to be done BEFORE even the work is done.

Lastly whether he is using easy wash paint or not you should have confirmed what brand he is using before work is done.

I am sorry ... to an extent you are doing this to yourself. I would never let my contractors to roam free with renovations only to discover the work is poorly done

He is friendly, and always listen and meet my needs. Although i'm a bit fussy when it comes down to details, he always there to solve my problems.
I am surprised that he is also an interior designer. Ideas he has given to me are mush more practical and stylish. For my Soho, I has a wall full with air-con, window access to air-con compressor, TV area, and he manage to hide all the mess with beautiful design with functional cabinet.
The carpentry workmanship is good, and they will go all the way for perfection, even a minor crack on the edge, they will just change and replace whole laminates for me. The outcome of the actual carpentry is almost 90% close to the 3D I get initially.

However he bit late on delivery, I'm not too sure is it my fault that i keep ask him to change things around, but ultimately i'm happy with his service, his price isn't too expensive compare to a few contractor/ID that i ask for quotes. Will definitely work with him again in my future house.  biggrin.gif

Sorry, don't know any good contractor so far, but everyone in Klang Valley that looking for renovation contractor, please AVOID this bad renovation contractor no matter how. A big NO NO!
Name: Lee Kuan Yau (IC:821102_XX_XX01)
Mobile: 60122648860
Company: Guixing Construction (002253685-P) with registered address in Taman Sri Sinar, Segambut, KL.
It was recommeded by a viral house makeover owner, but maybe he got too many jobs from the viral posts, so things change and become an evil. It was a nightmare for me, infact sleepless nights... Problems included: threathen us to get more progressive payments, bad workmanship, peeling and holes tiles grout, uneven tiles level, uneven skirting even up to 1inch thick, bathroom piping start leaking, cracked car porch, peeling wall plaster, uneven painting, worst thing is the new roof that cost 20K+ even start leaking when the roof is completed. Numerous leaking and when we report to him, he will say can settle, small matter, but just can't solved the leaking... already 6months since i moved in, leaking still happen but he will give lots of reasons to blame... long stories... so sharing this blacklist contractor here so people please AVOID to get con by this irresponsible reno contractor.

Hi. I would be grateful if anyone can recommend good contractors for my purpose. I am planning to renovate my new double storey house soon and would prefer a main contractor to manage all or most of the following:

1. Kitchen cabinet (L-shaped with a simple island)
2. Storage cabinet at entrance area
3. Glass awning for front porch (partial) and backyard
4. Some modification to backyard metal door
5. Plaster ceiling
6. Installation of lights and fans
7. Grill (two 4-panel sliding doors, front door, one 3-panel window, two 2-panel windows, 4 bathroom windows)
8. Paint work for some walls only
9. Master bedroom L-shaped wardrobe

If budget and design permit, I might consider building a small loft at my family area upstairs as well.

Thank you for your advice and assistance.

I just did my SOHO unit and I am very satisfied with Mr. Sam's services. Hence promised him to return him a favor by posting here.

He is friendly, and always listen and meet my needs. Although i'm a bit fussy when it comes down to details, he always there to solve my problems.
I am surprised that he is also an interior designer. Ideas he has given to me are mush more practical and stylish. For my Soho, I has a wall full with air-con, window access to air-con compressor, TV area, and he manage to hide all the mess with beautiful design with functional cabinet.
The carpentry workmanship is good, and they will go all the way for perfection, even a minor crack on the edge, they will just change and replace whole laminates for me. The outcome of the actual carpentry is almost 90% close to the 3D I get initially.

However he bit late on delivery, I'm not too sure is it my fault that i keep ask him to change things around, but ultimately i'm happy with his service, his price isn't too expensive compare to a few contractor/ID that i ask for quotes. Will definitely work with him again in my future house.  biggrin.gif

I am supporting Margaret statement.

as Mr U is working on my house currently
I am happy with his service, price is very reasonable and it's lower compare to other contractor even for his first quotation.

Most important thing is, he response to me promptly and try his best to fulfill all my requirement foc. he will discuss if it's really beyond his ability to add in charges upon my agreement.

Actually i plan to recommend him after he finish with my house and let you all know the outcome.

I requested for quotation to replace old metal deck awning with new (also metal deck type) for area size about 18 x 7 ft. The contractor quoted RM5,500 which I think is too expensive. Can anyone advise whether this price is reasonable?

Hi  smile.gif An accurate quotation is very much dependent on the work scope and material specs for each scope. Jukka from GoBuild will be able to run you through and give you a better quotation from there.

Check them out at here, they can definitely hit the 4 criteria!  thumbup.gif

almost finishing his part. Mr U said will finish it in 2~3 days time
yesterday total 6 workers were brought to my house including one supervisor to final touch up my house.
1 wiring man, 1 piping guy and others installing all my electrical equipment, bidet, faucet. as of yesterday, not fully done yet. tips those workers a bit to let them work happily...

i can't say 100% perfect, there is still touch up needed here and there.
overall he is very responsible. he is still trying to satisfy me.

yesterday Mr. U did the finishing until almost 9pm with his workers.
I am very satisfied with his service.
clean my whole house with acid even for those places not touched by his renovation.

I can say he is very responsible and won't simply charge you.
Most of the time he did not charge me anything for some simple work.

His quotation is the cheapest yet the outcome is impressive.
Good value for money.

Rest a sure he will response to my message promptly every day.
some even at 11pm.

but lately his wife just gave birth, he is slightly busy with taking care of her daughter.
yet he manage to finish my house on time and in good manner.

definitely will recommend him
Too bad he don't want to do cheras area anymore (my house at cheras) claiming it's too far.
haha

his main contract area is puchong and PJ.

I just did my SOHO unit and I am very satisfied with Mr. Sam's services. Hence promised him to return him a favor by posting here.

He is friendly, and always listen and meet my needs. Although i'm a bit fussy when it comes down to details, he always there to solve my problems.
I am surprised that he is also an interior designer. Ideas he has given to me are mush more practical and stylish. For my Soho, I has a wall full with air-con, window access to air-con compressor, TV area, and he manage to hide all the mess with beautiful design with functional cabinet.
The carpentry workmanship is good, and they will go all the way for perfection, even a minor crack on the edge, they will just change and replace whole laminates for me. The outcome of the actual carpentry is almost 90% close to the 3D I get initially.

However he bit late on delivery, I'm not too sure is it my fault that i keep ask him to change things around, but ultimately i'm happy with his service, his price isn't too expensive compare to a few contractor/ID that i ask for quotes. Will definitely work with him again in my future house.  biggrin.gif

I think better to engage specialist for each area. Gen con/other specialties dunno how to wire up correctly one.
Planning on who comes first is important. As the hacking/wet works/plaster ceiling/concealed electrical sockets should come first. Then only paint over or tile over. Lastly only install fittings (kitcab, bed, wardrobe).

Kitcab folks
a. Kitchen cabinet
b. Customize bunk bed
c. Bedroom wardrobes
e. Bathroom cabinet
h. TV cabinet
k. Storage cabinet at entrance, living room and yard
n. Kitchen sliding door and windows installation

Usually this and sliding windows (glass+alu frame stuff) by the windows/shower screen folks
d. Shower screen

Proper electrician recommended especially for f.
f. Add power outlets
j. Ceiling light and fan installation

Plaster ceiling/drywall folks.
i. Plaster ceiling(Optional)
g. Add interior wall (faux wall/drywall?)

Painter or paint yourself lah.
l. Paint work

Tiling sifu. Wet works folks.
m. Wall tiles installation

I recently had my father's 51 years old house renovated in Cheras. It is not a lavish type of renovation but just to provide a breath of fresh air into the house. After going through a pain staking survey on the work quality and corresponding prices from various renovation contractors, we have finally decided to engage one in the 2nd week of December.

The main reason why I have chosen this contractor is plainly because he is extremely patience attending to all of my questions especially when I am not an expert in this field while trying to understand how things work, the schedule of his refurbishment work, the type of materials that he is using and etc. Believed me, even my husband "beh tahan" me with all the questions at times. blush.gif He went through things one by one in layman's term, making me very comfortable especially knowing that he knew exactly what he is doing.

As I am no longer staying with my parents, he took the liberty to sent me the progress photos on a daily basis. The depth of the foundation, the size of the steel bar used, the tiles installation work where all wall tiles are pre soaked (with video showing bubbles emerging from the tiles, omg!) He is very accommodating especially when I have made certain last minute changes also he is alright with it. The electrical cables used for our entire house is also a branded one according to him. I was told that the wires can last for at least a good 15 to 20 years time and the brand is either Maga or Mega, I cant quite remember. He took a lot of photos on the wire used, displaying the brand printed on the wire prior to burying them into the wall in pvc conduit.

Since the wall is old, there are aging plaster, peeled of paint and also uneven surfaces. These are carefully attended, replastered and painted. The wooden door jam and wood made louvered windows have also been removed, making way for the new door and alum windows. The mold on external wall are being washed using water jet (this was shown in video too, knowing me devil.gif) prior to applying new paint.

There was a delay in their work due to the recent MCO lockdown but our contractor made their way back and continue with their work in mere one week after the lockdown. They managed to secure their work approval and assuring us he is able to complete his job before CNY. Finally, he managed to complete his work on last Friday. The whole house has been thoroughly washed and cleaned. I am very satisfied and happy with his work. Overall, he is a responsible & committed contractor.

I would recommend him to anyone who is interested, especially to those who has very little idea of what renovation is all about.

That is an exemplary contractor. If I guess correctly it will be Mega Kabel (one of the top tier cable mfg in MY, JKR also spec this in their project BOM). All proper cables (that meet spec) are NOT afraid to print their brand name on the cable because they are confident that their product meets the required spec. Those who have something to hide will NOT want to display their brand on their products.

I think I have better luck hitting mega jackpot than meeting a perfect contractor. May be I am a skeptic but I have done my fair share of renovations and some are fairly big budget (>300k) but I havent found Mr. Perfect Contractor.

What I am seeing cited here are small to medium projects at best and you got perfect contractors that don't seem to make any mistake, will right all wrongs proactively to "perfection" at his own cost, use the bestest materials, very reasonable cost, etc etc. Put it this way, if the contractor is THAT good, he will be doing renovation projects that >500k and not your 50k project.

Granted, people have different expectations. May be some people are easy to please. But many renovations are comprising of many interelated tasks and mistakes are unavoidable most of the time. Some serious one may require rework at contractor's own cost but those borderline unclear requirements most of the time the customer will just have to accept. In addition, if the vendor is so perfect that the only blemish is that he is late on delivery because of the customer kept on changing requirements. Come on, what a bs ... if you keep on changing requirements don't even say it is the contractor's fault and list it as the only "fault" as to balance the recommendation.

Even my best contractors, I have complained that one is too expensive but he is good; one is flexible to fix the problem but his workers did make mistakes on the work; one can do everything asked but can't think much value added solutions.

May be some of the recommendations are genuine but I sure hope people that are requesting for contact info understand that what works for one may not work for you and there is no such thing as perfect contractor with no flaw. One has to do proper evaluations and research instead of just taking recommendation for one forum.

To me, a good contractor is someone who responsible and sensible. it is always a good practice to be constantly in communication with your contractor, keeping progress in check and avoid any plan deviation ensuring work can be completed on time.

I thought my contractor was pretty decent. Respond to messages, clear quotation, wetwork quality is good, delivery on time and very important.... able to slow talk with my neighbours when issues arise. Depends on luck I guess if you and your contractor ngam or not. Poorly skilled contractor not good, super fussy owner pun susah also. Need to research around and when you decide to engage them, pray nothing major happen.

There was a delay in their work due to the recent MCO lockdown but our contractor made their way back and continue with their work in mere one week after the lockdown. They managed to secure their work approval and assuring us he is able to complete his job before CNY. Finally, he managed to complete his work on last Friday. The whole house has been thoroughly washed and cleaned. I am very satisfied and happy with his work. Overall, he is a responsible & committed contractor.

I would recommend him to anyone who is interested, especially to those who has very little idea of what renovation is all about.

Hi, I would like to recommend this Indonesian contractor Muniri. 019-612-1329. I have used him for painting my condo, changing toilet flooring, changing water pipes, building kitchen countertops. He is very reliable and his prices are very reasonable. His tiling is first class. I been using him over more than 7 years. The reason I am recommending him is so that he has enough business to continue to work in Malaysia. He stays in PJ, but am willing to travel to Nilai, Klang for big jobs (more than Rm2K). Btw, I am Dr Patrick Soh, Head of Department of IT & Law Unit, Multimedia University and dont earn anything from him. He speaks only in BM.

Anyone use "The Makeover Guys Sdn Bhd" before?

I submitted for high level quotation.
3 room units takes about RM33k - without Kitchen Cabinet & Electrical Appliances.

Is this OK?

I recently had my father's 51 years old house renovated in Cheras. It is not a lavish type of renovation but just to provide a breath of fresh air into the house. After going through a pain staking survey on the work quality and corresponding prices from various renovation contractors, we have finally decided to engage one in the 2nd week of December.

The main reason why I have chosen this contractor is plainly because he is extremely patience attending to all of my questions especially when I am not an expert in this field while trying to understand how things work, the schedule of his refurbishment work, the type of materials that he is using and etc. Believed me, even my husband "beh tahan" me with all the questions at times. blush.gif He went through things one by one in layman's term, making me very comfortable especially knowing that he knew exactly what he is doing.

As I am no longer staying with my parents, he took the liberty to sent me the progress photos on a daily basis. The depth of the foundation, the size of the steel bar used, the tiles installation work where all wall tiles are pre soaked (with video showing bubbles emerging from the tiles, omg!) He is very accommodating especially when I have made certain last minute changes also he is alright with it. The electrical cables used for our entire house is also a branded one according to him. I was told that the wires can last for at least a good 15 to 20 years time and the brand is either Maga or Mega, I cant quite remember.  He took a lot of photos on the wire used, displaying the brand printed on the wire prior to burying them into the wall in pvc conduit. 

Since the wall is old, there are aging plaster, peeled of paint and also uneven surfaces. These are carefully attended, replastered and painted. The wooden door jam and wood made louvered windows have also been removed, making way for the new door and alum windows. The mold on external wall are being washed using water jet (this was shown in video too, knowing me devil.gif) prior to applying new paint.

They managed to secure their work approval and assuring us he is able to complete his job before CNY. Finally, he managed to complete his work on last Friday. The whole house has been thoroughly washed and cleaned. I am very satisfied and happy with his work. Overall, he is a responsible & committed contractor.

I would recommend him to anyone who is interested, especially to those who has very little idea of what renovation is all about.

I recently had my father's 51 years old house renovated in Cheras. It is not a lavish type of renovation but just to provide a breath of fresh air into the house. After going through a pain staking survey on the work quality and corresponding prices from various renovation contractors, we have finally decided to engage one in the 2nd week of December.

The main reason why I have chosen this contractor is plainly because he is extremely patience attending to all of my questions especially when I am not an expert in this field while trying to understand how things work, the schedule of his refurbishment work, the type of materials that he is using and etc. Believed me, even my husband "beh tahan" me with all the questions at times. blush.gif He went through things one by one in layman's term, making me very comfortable especially knowing that he knew exactly what he is doing.

As I am no longer staying with my parents, he took the liberty to sent me the progress photos on a daily basis. The depth of the foundation, the size of the steel bar used, the tiles installation work where all wall tiles are pre soaked (with video showing bubbles emerging from the tiles, omg!) He is very accommodating especially when I have made certain last minute changes also he is alright with it. The electrical cables used for our entire house is also a branded one according to him. I was told that the wires can last for at least a good 15 to 20 years time and the brand is either Maga or Mega, I cant quite remember.  He took a lot of photos on the wire used, displaying the brand printed on the wire prior to burying them into the wall in pvc conduit. 

Since the wall is old, there are aging plaster, peeled of paint and also uneven surfaces. These are carefully attended, replastered and painted. The wooden door jam and wood made louvered windows have also been removed, making way for the new door and alum windows. The mold on external wall are being washed using water jet (this was shown in video too, knowing me devil.gif) prior to applying new paint.

Hi, can anyone give me the no for contractor who can fix my defect? I need quotation to repair everything since my developer, IOI Properties is so slow in repairing those defects. My current contractor do not own a company, hence cannot produce a quotation for me.

Hi, i have a same question with you. I just collect my key THE HAMSTEAD, by ASET KAYAMAS at Bandar Tun Razak. The workmanship is like ranting.gif ranting.gif . They just do 60unit handover, but defect repairing was slow than turtle, some more some item need order from China and take 3-4 months for delivery, and ask me to do renovation first, when material arrive, then developer will replace for me. I also ask my contractor to settle my defects. rclxub.gif

hi, not sure if this is the correct place to ask.

1) im facing leakage of water from the roof of my car porch when i switch on the air-con only, not when raining. How can I solve this?

2) Beside, same car porch, water leaking in between my car porch and awning when raining.

3) water flowing out from the kitchen sink is very very slow. Previously, the plumber said maybe the piping underground got problem hence he used some gas/air to clear the pipe temporary. the condition was solved for few minutes and the issue came back until now. Do I need to rebuild the whole piping?


Can anyone recommend some contractors that may be able to solve my problems above? My previous contractor was the worst of all and I have to stop him before burning out my money.

I recently had my father's 51 years old house renovated in Cheras. It is not a lavish type of renovation but just to provide a breath of fresh air into the house. After going through a pain staking survey on the work quality and corresponding prices from various renovation contractors, we have finally decided to engage one in the 2nd week of December.

The main reason why I have chosen this contractor is plainly because he is extremely patience attending to all of my questions especially when I am not an expert in this field while trying to understand how things work, the schedule of his refurbishment work, the type of materials that he is using and etc. Believed me, even my husband "beh tahan" me with all the questions at times. blush.gif He went through things one by one in layman's term, making me very comfortable especially knowing that he knew exactly what he is doing.

As I am no longer staying with my parents, he took the liberty to sent me the progress photos on a daily basis. The depth of the foundation, the size of the steel bar used, the tiles installation work where all wall tiles are pre soaked (with video showing bubbles emerging from the tiles, omg!) He is very accommodating especially when I have made certain last minute changes also he is alright with it. The electrical cables used for our entire house is also a branded one according to him. I was told that the wires can last for at least a good 15 to 20 years time and the brand is either Maga or Mega, I cant quite remember.  He took a lot of photos on the wire used, displaying the brand printed on the wire prior to burying them into the wall in pvc conduit. 

Since the wall is old, there are aging plaster, peeled of paint and also uneven surfaces. These are carefully attended, replastered and painted. The wooden door jam and wood made louvered windows have also been removed, making way for the new door and alum windows. The mold on external wall are being washed using water jet (this was shown in video too, knowing me devil.gif) prior to applying new paint.

There was a delay in their work due to the recent MCO lockdown but our contractor made their way back and continue with their work in mere one week after the lockdown. They managed to secure their work approval and assuring us he is able to complete his job before CNY. Finally, he managed to complete his work on last Friday. The whole house has been thoroughly washed and cleaned. I am very satisfied and happy with his work. Overall, he is a responsible & committed contractor.

I would recommend him to anyone who is interested, especially to those who has very little idea of what renovation is all about.

Recently I purchase a subsale 3 bedrooms kondo in KL. I have been reading interior magazines and following interior designer in instagram. I know what i want for my new kondo.

I am looking for a contractor that can take my suggestions and maybe source the materials, that will be great, because I am not a good person in arguments/quarrel smile.gif

The herringbone installation requires skills and time. It is not left over. For the backsplash area only, contractor can demand thousands. 😏

In China it is almost std practise to use spacers for tiling.
However in here its hard to get a tiler that uses them.

https://www.facebook.com/videohddailly/vide...29678988240604/
She uses spacers, back buttering.

If its a small area u can DIY geh. smile.gif levelling by laser easier, or spirit level and plumb line/45deg set square coz herringbone is all diagonals. Material wise sika tile cement + PVA adhesive (latex adhesive/"susu") je. Best to sand down all the paint so it can bond to cement of the wall, as paint won't really hold well. https://s.lazada.com.my/s.Xp6yY
PVA adhesive sikalatex comes in 4L tubs.
Cutting the tiles will need a marble/tile cutter. Manual one also about 100 bucks, power tool 80-100 or closer to 200 for stanley, makita.

Tq ceo for the instructions and where to get it. I would do it myself if it’s a normal straight design..but i really don’t have the confidence to do herringbone 😅 and it’s 12ft kitchen cabinet. Btw ceo, if diy, can i just use pre-mix cement adhesive?

Yes the sika premixed tile adhesive (that 25kg bag) just add water will work pretty well.
The sika premix tile adhesive is a ready mix of cement and other modifiers inside, its easier to just add water to it thumbup.gif - as compared to making your own mix with normal cement ($16 bag), add sand add this add that more things to go haywire.

P.S. Don't add PVA to the premixed stuff (apologies); i confused PVA with latex adhesive. I read PVA may mess with the pH coz it produces acetic acid which is the other way (cement needs alkaline env to bond and harden). Its own Sikalatex (as mentioned on the 25kg bag) should be safe.
P.P.S. PVA glue and latex glue looks the same but are 2 diff things.

I just did my SOHO unit and I am very satisfied with Mr. Sam's services. Hence promised him to return him a favor by posting here.

He is friendly, and always listen and meet my needs. Although i'm a bit fussy when it comes down to details, he always there to solve my problems.
I am surprised that he is also an interior designer. Ideas he has given to me are mush more practical and stylish. For my Soho, I has a wall full with air-con, window access to air-con compressor, TV area, and he manage to hide all the mess with beautiful design with functional cabinet.
The carpentry workmanship is good, and they will go all the way for perfection, even a minor crack on the edge, they will just change and replace whole laminates for me. The outcome of the actual carpentry is almost 90% close to the 3D I get initially.

However he bit late on delivery, I'm not too sure is it my fault that i keep ask him to change things around, but ultimately i'm happy with his service, his price isn't too expensive compare to a few contractor/ID that i ask for quotes. Will definitely work with him again in my future house.  biggrin.gif

I recently had my father's 51 years old house renovated in Cheras. It is not a lavish type of renovation but just to provide a breath of fresh air into the house. After going through a pain staking survey on the work quality and corresponding prices from various renovation contractors, we have finally decided to engage one in the 2nd week of December.

The main reason why I have chosen this contractor is plainly because he is extremely patience attending to all of my questions especially when I am not an expert in this field while trying to understand how things work, the schedule of his refurbishment work, the type of materials that he is using and etc. Believed me, even my husband "beh tahan" me with all the questions at times. blush.gif He went through things one by one in layman's term, making me very comfortable especially knowing that he knew exactly what he is doing.

As I am no longer staying with my parents, he took the liberty to sent me the progress photos on a daily basis. The depth of the foundation, the size of the steel bar used, the tiles installation work where all wall tiles are pre soaked (with video showing bubbles emerging from the tiles, omg!) He is very accommodating especially when I have made certain last minute changes also he is alright with it. The electrical cables used for our entire house is also a branded one according to him. I was told that the wires can last for at least a good 15 to 20 years time and the brand is either Maga or Mega, I cant quite remember.  He took a lot of photos on the wire used, displaying the brand printed on the wire prior to burying them into the wall in pvc conduit. 

Since the wall is old, there are aging plaster, peeled of paint and also uneven surfaces. These are carefully attended, replastered and painted. The wooden door jam and wood made louvered windows have also been removed, making way for the new door and alum windows. The mold on external wall are being washed using water jet (this was shown in video too, knowing me devil.gif) prior to applying new paint.

There was a delay in their work due to the recent MCO lockdown but our contractor made their way back and continue with their work in mere one week after the lockdown. They managed to secure their work approval and assuring us he is able to complete his job before CNY. Finally, he managed to complete his work on last Friday. The whole house has been thoroughly washed and cleaned. I am very satisfied and happy with his work. Overall, he is a responsible & committed contractor.

I would recommend him to anyone who is interested, especially to those who has very little idea of what renovation is all about.
