QUOTE(hehs3818 @ Jun 21 2020, 02:31 PM) BEWARE OF THIS SCAMMER! Anyone wanting to hire this painter Sky Leong Chang Ker 0169722533 must be very careful. I contacted Sky Leong Chang Ker to spray on my kitchen cabinet and repaint my house. We got 3 quotes and his quote is slightly more expensive than the other two. We selected him because we believe on his workmanship and indeed he’s very good at self-promoting on his job and building rapport. He told us that he got cheated RM40,000 by a main-con in Cyberjaya in Feb 2020 before CNY, and no work during MCO period, so he promised to do a very good and efficient job. We paid 50% deposit and he came and work first day and requested another 20% because ‘his mother is sick’ and need more money urgently. Of course we refuse to pay and guest what, he disappeared on 2nd day. We called and he was very LCLY saying he’s busy and started another work already. Ask us to wait ‘few days’ after he finish his job first because he need money. On the same conversation he even requested RM2000 for him to come over to finish up the job! Just beware of this 骗子contractor Sky Leong Chang Ker 0169722533. But thanks for this info! I hope your next contractor will be OK. |

Hi, guy... why always is house owner complain about the contractor no good and not responsible? Is someone try to take advantage to contractor? Or contractor take advantage to the house owner? Contractor must balance up their profit margin, if not profit margin how to survive to pay the skillful worker? It’s really hard to find a team of skillful workers now days...hope all the contractor don’t get a bad name from the house owner. And hope all the house owner also don’t squeeze the contractor pricing to tied. Both also need to be balance and fare to each other’s and get win win situations. Darenloh liked this post

Just completed some minor renovations at home (mainly a new nursery!) after contractors were allowed to resume work after the MCO period. Engaged Mr Yap again (my 3rd renovation contract with him) and once again, am very pleased with the quality of his work and the price was decent as well! Mr Yap's workers also had their Covid-19 tests carried out so a bit more peace of mind when letting them into our home. And of course, the final result!: ![]() Scope of works: 1. Wall crack repairs 2. Installation of new lights + relocation of existing lights 3. Addition of power sockets + hacking 4. Painting 5. Plaster ceiling 6. Mounting of fixtures & fittings Best thing was the team really took care to manage the cleanliness and dust (which is very important as we are currently living in the house and have furniture, etc). They even protected the bed in the room (which we didn't remove during the renovations) and kept it in perfect condition! And finished everything on time as promised. A solid 9/10 for attitude, quality and price for Mr Yap and would not hesitate to engage again. Robert.johor liked this post

“ If u arrange and in charge of everything nicely.. u will save cost.. u dun arrange work for your worker nicely.. dun blame me.. u r wasting their time.. not me.. I want my house to be done earliest possible.. but because u dun do your work properly.. they don't work efficiently.. u blame me..

QUOTE(Robert.johor @ Aug 9 2020, 08:21 AM) Should just ask the owner to really go out there and check on paint price nowadays. The market itself is competitive, good quality material and workmanship do costs a lot more than inferior/normal quality products/workmanship. Also, If the owner hire different contractors for different jobs then the hired contractors should know when is the best time for them to come in, the painting contractor should also advise the owner beforehand. Only start the work when both seller and buyer has consensus on it. |

QUOTE(pesona3F @ Aug 8 2020, 11:29 PM) Yeah. 2100 including paint for whole house is damn cheap already. My contractor quoted me 1200 for ground floor only, excluding paint. If I compare to 2100 for whole house, the price I get is pretty expensive. But I will go with him anyway since I saw the quality of painting in my sister’s house (who recommend me this contractor) is still like brand new after 8 years ++.Btw, how many liters of paint do I need to paint ground level only for 22x75 house? Built up around 2300/2. Other than all side walls, internal walls are only divider between kitchen & living hall (9x15ft), 1 room & kitchen. |
