Mind to share?

Hi annmix, can you share what happened?

Not another abandon project kua?

Not abandon.. but delay of completion and some flaw n bad workmanship.. but hafizan insist I should comment only after he deliver the completion.. oh well now I will trust him again.. im not here to spoild someone rice bowl but I hope everything will be fine as insisted by him but I learned a lesson this time...

i suggest u bring another contractor to pay for site visits to know for sure that afizan isnt cheating or misleading u

Oh well now I jus hope the worker can complete by next week so I can move back asap.. coz cant afford to pay another 1month rent to my neigbour coz renting a room. fr her..Supposed completion by end july.. now I hv to beg neigbour to rent extra 1 week n not sure weather it will be completed on time or not.. I will post all the photos upon completion so everybody can judge of the workmanship n quality later

Is going to raya time. Everything is slowing down for a mth.

is it alot of things need to renovate that's why is it late delver so your can complete b4 raya n share to everyone howz the workmanship like.

well, renovation cannot predict. So best is allocate more buffer and dont rush. It is better to get the thing fix rather than rush to go in.

Bro... I can feel you bcoz I'm going through the same process like u. Learned a lesson n EVERYTHING MUST BE IN BLACK N WHITE!!!

Well.. it can be completed as schedule if the contractor allocate the same amount of worker to work on my site, coz he having another bigger project so only first week the progress is fast but from 2-3week, sometime only 2 person come to work and slow down the progress.. !

So for the past few days I try to go to the site as often as I can to check on the progress.. and really help speeding things up abit.. raya is coming soon, and hopefully as promised the flooring can be install so I can start moving back my stuff back..

Black and white is one, if don't have site supervisor or project manager that report to you, you have to go there frequently. Please also add buffer days. I always put minimal 20% buffer. If he say 6 week, you work on 8 weeks.

Yes no supervispor.. worker jus come and do thier work according verbally by the contractor and follow the marking by the contractor, for the past week I was on the site everyday to make sure all thing done properly as there was mistakes for the pass few weeks tat worker did not see the marking properly or jus confused of the work they are doin.. well I guess on my case.. im the supervisor la..

Now worker finished painting, but still 1 aircorn not installed and a exaust fan is missing in 1 toilet still not install.. been asking but say coming to install but never arrived. Payment already paid 2 weeks ago.

Now painting done n later install will damage the wall n ceiling again I guess

Installing aircon and exhaust will not damage the wall and ceiling if it is purely installing.
Sorry to hear about your problems. Hope everything works out.

Lesson is, owner personally has to oversee the work progress even having a site supervisor. Better be more tedious now than mistakes later. Those workers will pay more attention psychologically, as the owner is always 'there'!
All the best, and selamat hari raya...
