Dear all,

For those who getting or just got a new home and want to start your new dream home renovation, i truly wish you have a good and happy renovation journey.

Personally, renovation supposedly is a family project that you build your dream home and sharing the idea of makeover with your loves one and seeing your house building up & completion day by day with realizing your own way of design. These are something really a cherishing moment and priceless process experiences.
But if you met bad contractors, contradictory all these will become a nightmare, and might cause you in short term financial headache bangwall.gif

Haizzz!! Unfortunately, this happened to me.
They runaway with my money and leaving shitty undone behind.
Do not get me wrong where some people might think that i must be looking for a cheapest contractors.
However & inversely i was actually compared at least 4 contractors and the one I "LUCKILY" picked are among the highest (at least 30% expensive than other).

Here are some bad experiences I faced:
- Using cheap materials and not as promised during jobs RFQ.
- Very bad quality of work
- Not instruct & delegating jobs clearly & accordingly to their workers, ends up a lot mistake and causing unwanted damage to my house
- They do not have their own worker, mostly are temporary foreigner worker & also outsource work to unknown contractor (During RFQ, they mentioned proudly they have over 50 workers vmad.gif )
- Maybe is because of unknown contractor applied, stealing & lost happened(reusable items after dismantled during reno - example: Water faucet, shower head, kitchen sink, doors & locks, and many more). Both siblings agreed to replace with same brands & model for lost items. But you should know what next........(maybe both them got to know that those lost items sum up are a huge amounts.)
- Not monitor work progress
- A lot excuses. not walk the talk
- Not punctual, things keeps delay
- Work not according to schedule
- Hard to reach them by call. Even though picked up, both of this brother will pushing responsibilities to each others
- Collecting progress payment - Yes! they are damn fast and efficient and will show face very frequently during that period of time at your house to monitor work progress
- Keep requesting for additional pay (best excuses: "These items are not covered in quote")
- etc.......... (I don't have to mention them all, as I guess those bad contractors sharing the same characteristics that you might also know)

These guys really have a lot mobile phone numbers until i can't remember/saved all.
But now it make sense to me when these brotherhood take turn to pickup phone call during our met at site(but mostly dropping instead picking up). vmad.gif
And for god sake, who the hell of this world a person got to registered that such amount of FB accounts?

Both this siblings previous project stories was later told by my others contractor that I hire to picking up their left over mess. That they already have very bad records in Klang area where mostly are runaway owners money and even runaway his own contractors and worker's money after works done.
So, that is why i want to post it here to avoid same case happen again to other owners.
I might not the first 1 got cheated by them, but i really hope i will be the last!!!

Please do not drop into a bad contractor tricks like what I stupidly been. I truly hope with the power of internet we all can at least avoid(after this case, i studies and learnt after some research through web. I was really upset with our consumers and legal right on such case/situation - Those been into such situation will know what i meant sad.gif )
Eventually, for those are planning for renovation, hope you have a good hunt for Good Contractors. Good Luck!!!
