Thats rite.. If they are the contractor, just tell everybody.
Do not act like public forum member and recommend another contractor who r actually themselves.

But in my case, there is a big problem. when i share pictures, staff will consider i was advertising and ban me.. * just finished 3 days ban in hell

Hi Jess,

First, I did not say not paying deposit. Before I could pay materials were delivered as a way to get me more committed than just a signed contract.

2nd, Of course not all contractors are like that but most. I did have a good contractor for my first house but he has since retired.

Last, You must not trust and must check on your contractor and his sub contractors on wet-work especially structural works regardless if you have time or no time and at least you ask how are they going to do it to make sure it is stronger that requirements like beams and pillar, footing and foundation. My contractor, though not a pleasant one, he invited me to inspect the foundation work and beams and pillars before concrete were poured! At first i told him i did not have the time but he insisted I go at crucial time, how big a hole they had dug for the foundation, the footing just before concrete, and he made me count the numbers of rebars and show me its thickness. He even make me claim up to the top of the beams if they had it tied the rebar beam cage properly and with a wielding tool I was told to tell the sub-contractor where else I wanted the rebar to be wield together!

So you see I got a bad attitude contractor when come to finances and negotiation of strength and power but not quality of work.

I've appointed him to do major reno (house extension + kitchen cabinets, wardrobe) last year. He provides a sounds reasonable reno quotation initially and promised you he can deliver whatever you design/requested to lure you in to sign it and put down deposits. After that, he started saying this cannot that cannot and charging high price for the material you want but at the end he gave different things which is low quality and made you fed up to change it after dragging long time. Also, finishing is very bad and unprofessional, never fix concrete roof water leaking, wrong door colors/pattern, new tracks installed are scratched and dirty, wrong cabinets design and measurements, uneven plaster ceiling, miscalculate floor tiles number to buy which coz different tiles color tone.... and many more!!) #@!#@!$!%!

lucikly! I did ask for quotation from one of the guy (can't remember his name). Price was reasonable compared to other contractors. But somehow I find something fishy as he said "can kawtim one boss" for everything I asked. And doesn't want to give black and white for things he promises.

Currently he is hunting on Alam Impian area. saw his banner in two houses.

sharing a rogue contractor

Desmond Cheng

1. at first told me will start work with 10% payment & additional 40% after work start. Then keep giving excuses to delay start work, eventually force me to pay up to 50% only start.
2. work progress SLOWLY even after being told repeatedly i need it to be done after a week
(1 day i went check onsite and found only 2 foreign workers there doing 1 task)
3. when it finally 'completed' this scumbag threaten that if i don't make full payment on the spot he will not return my house key
4. when i have the chance to inspect the work, found so many defects i have to hire another contractor to clean up the mess.
