Avatar II do post up a pic of ur completed flooring in that thread when its done =) good luck in tyour search

Noted, but probably will only be end Oct or Early Nov..might only start in mid Sept if the tenat shift out by then..my sub sale took 2 years till vacant possession..being considerate in view of the puasa month and Hari Raya, let the tenant to stay until end of this month..ex owner request for extension

2 years!!mine oso....experienced before too:first puasa lah,then kenduri kahwin anak,then anak mkau lahir anak..lol so after so long got fed up n put the foot down...can only be nice to a certain limit...tenant is the ex-owner?wonder why some people still wanna stay on for so long after selling off the property...

No, it is ex owner's tenant..did told him to inform tenant to get prepared to shift last May since already manage to get state consent but usual lar..dilly dally..lawyer also one kind..actually agent's lawyer, like siding the vendor..but after waiting so long, i dont mind waiting another month or two..just that a renovator that I have been keeping in touch since last two years is free at the moment..so I wanna make sure he take up my job..renovator a sifu himself with 3 worker..he did one of the house in same area, seen his workmanship though not perfect but acceptable to my eyes, good enough..so making sure I dont miss the chance

Please think twice before you award to Johnie23, this guy is the empty promise maker, whatever the date he committed, nv fulfil. The workmanship is lousy, a simple works need several of times to finish. His workers come and not well prepared, using my brand new washing machine as their working plaform, scratching and minor burnt marks on my WM. Being promised to replace the Wm,but nv come true beside all the excuses.

yes,good renovator is important..since he liase with you for 2 years,i guess there'd be less miscommunication..

Finally the worker come at 1.30pm to touch up the painting abit.. so now i have remove all furniture packing.

and now still missing is kitchen cabinet.

hi

you can consider to summarize your experience, give a rating on my thread above

Since quite a few ppl already got not so good experience, let's not let others fall into the same trap

yes the workmanship is kinda bad .. my wall many part kena damage quite badly.. the only worker who does the neat work is the plaster ceiling guy.. the rest jus main hantam

but since all the delay till now.. my job are almost 70% done after numerous complaining n yelling.. now jus missing a aircorn (which is paid and reschedule almost 5x for installation but never arrived). also kitchen cabinet still no sign of installing. ( initial installation date is July 26).. also dont know weather he got order or not

now i jus want it to complete asap i have no energy to complain about the workmanship or asking him already. if tomorow still no news for kitchen cabinet i guess better i reappoint another kitchen cabinet company to do.. mayb can still get install faster..

sometime i dont understand why these ppl dare to advertised so loud and write so many good things about themselves in the forum but end of the day the jus make thier reputation bad after all the bad feedback fr ppl appointed them

the walls look ok from the pictures...omg u got do any tiling work?if main hantam with tilles,outcome will be a real eyesore.aircond also buy through contractor?aiyah why din juz go harvey norman n buy or sth...
those ppl advertise so loudly so can con ppl mah..need to con more before unsatisfied customers cry foul...then maybe after that just shut down current company and open a new company

of coz the picture u cant really see the flaw unless u have superman eye lol.. tiling only on toilet and future kitchen backsplash.. last time he told me that he can handle the floor n aircorn together , so i tot it was okie.. now the aircorn reschedule to next monday again.. and still no news for my kitchen cabinet

hahaha yeah picture cant really show workmanship
aiyoh he keep delaying your project..its small but still...still berhari raya maybe..
anyway wish you all the best =) do keep us updated

hari raya for 1 month ? better close shop la.. haha

anyway i hope my kitchen cabinet will appear soon.. lol

Sorry to say many are just hit and run. Get few customer, change id change phone business stsrt again.

ya but thier name is still the same ma..

for my case if worst to worst i appoint another contractor to do kitchen cabinet , i guess i wont lost money too .. i think he is trying to complete my job but he doesnt have money to roll ...

Change company name is so easy. How often you see they use sdn bhd?

ya unless he dont use his real name for business la..

Maybe you should just continue to push him to complete the job and don't look too much at the workmanship.
Later get another contractor to clean up.
Normally I would not do that but under your circumstances, might need to.
If it is only installation of air con and kitchen cabinets it is possible for you to move back provided the air con pipes and wiring is already completed. Installing air con is a clean job.
The kitchen cabinet installation can be quite clean unless you are using solid surfaces for take top.
Solid surface needs polishing after installation so it is very dusty. Other materials may not need polishing in this manner, not too sure.

aircorn wiring is there but the stupid worker sealed up the hole fr previous ac ( coz upgrding the aircorn fr 1hp to 1.5)

kitchen is using solid surface top and plywood cabinet (

yes i already not care about the workmanship already. i jus want to conplele asap. but he just telling me give him somemore time.. well i have already given him extra 1month already !!

i have no choice but to move in last night.. here are some picture of my bedroom. still bit messy..
