hi all, i would like to recommend Mr.U 012-911 0653
he had been working for my double storey house renovation for the past 4 months.

Initially I had quotation from Mr.Yap (a lot of recommendation here), Mr.U and 2 other contractor. from all the contractor, Mr.U is able to suit my budget yet had given what i requested.
Mr. Yap is also helpful, but he is pricier. Mr. Yap did proposed some other solution to suit my budget, but it's not really what i had in plan.
So in the end Mr.U quoted me lower than my budget but with everything i want. He even came over to my house before my final selection to remove the awning at the backyard as it was not allowed during my permit application. Since he was so helpful and with a good price, i took my risk to get him to do my work as there is only Margaret who recommended him in lowyat forum.

He is responsible and responsive to my query, question and requirement. A lot of extra stuff he did for free. he is not calculative type of person.
He will not hide his mistake and be frank to me.
He quoted me cement brick price but willing to give me clay brick after i requested.

He just finished his work at my house yesterday. he and his worker tried their best to spot flaws before they left and rectified whatever they can.

I am a happy house owner with his work.

I am not hard selling here. just share my experience.

ya, kind of agree with you. He did complained he couldn't profit from my project and won't repeat again.
but at the end he did the job well and finished it.
That's why i highly recommend him here.

i think most contractor factor in too much margin to cover for any unexpected lost.

U did some wrong calculation for the concrete slab size, but i did agree to compensate him with reasonable price.
He also showed me the size of the steel rod and told him some contractor reduced the number of steel rod in the pillar just to con few hundred but he will not do so.
from my view, he is a responsible guy and wish to give the best to his customer. just from my current experience only.

He treated me nice, so i just returned him favor.

i am just sharing my experience here.

you may search my other post where i am seriously doing my renovation research in all aspect.

i am totally agree with you that no one will do business without profit. probably U do a wrong quotation that's why earning very less or minimal. But he didn't ask for change order or whatever. Although there is added scope, but i think the price is reasonable after browsing with topics in this forum.

Sure there is some cons, like he stayed in puchong and come less to my site. I am the one monitor my house frequently. But he will rectify his mistake.
And also i felt that he didn't manage his workers well. some time they did less work and took more time. but i won't mind about it cause he is the one paying them salary and i only pay him in lump sump price.
He also will request payment every 2 weeks to pay salary to workers. some time i did pay even the progress not until that stage.
