I cant see why it should be 120k if the works are only those you listed. Doesnt make sense at all. As a contractor myself I just did a double storey extension 300sqft for 120k.

He's saying those are usually among the lowest quotation given. No need to be salty.

Try to do the industry practice for the quotations. Remove the Highest and Lowest price then decides on the rest.

i'm a ID contractor...

i'm as sad as u when u get cheated

u get cheated i don't earn anything

u get cheated when i almost about to convince u that i am a good contractor that u don't trust me instead u choose the dark side ( this is how yoda feel)

u choose cheaper option thinking that renovation is no big deal and no rocket science that anybody can do it...

u got cheated in 1 of the following: -

1. within budget - VO keep adding
2. within timeframe - delivery date keep postponing
3. within expected quality - quality of toyota compare to quality of proton ...and i didnt compare to benz or BMW

all this when i see it myself u think i happy??? laughing through??? what i earn??? u will buy another house in 2 weeks and u will learn from experience and took from me????

think about it ya! i never even ask for anything

My fellow ID contractor, just explain it without igniting any argument. I think your company is quite established at least compared to mine. Be professional as per your establishment level. I know this is just a forum and those arguing might not be your client but I think it is our job to make it clearer for public into ID and renovation. Cheers.

seriously on what ground you say that we all here are choosing cheaper option and thinking that anybody can do it?

all of us care about our renovation and many of us are even choosing the most expensive quote YET in the end the contractor wasn't able to meet our expectation hence the complaints.

it is very obvious that you didn't read this thread completely and just coming in to say that we are facing problem because we are trying to go cheap.

if paying expensive quote means worry-free i believe we don't even need this thread because many of us can definitely afford to pay.

Just want to point out expensive doesn't guarantee quality and after sales services as well, just with higher possibilities. It is better to check contractors previous work and their reviews.

Very less ppl put reviews in google on contractor workmanship and services

Hope to see more reviews same like others services like car workshops, restaurant, doctors  etc.

It can help other to decide on their renovation contractors. Currently heavily depends on other neighbors or friend recommendations.

Too much hassle and bad contractor can shut down their company and get new one.

Never ending story.
