Hi Coco Mine also affected by sunlight. May I know how much you paid for the solar film? Any contact?

Yes. I do agree we should have our own ideas when come to designing our own house. Somehow we do need advice and ideas from someone who is professional such as ID. We don't need an ID if we don't require his design knowledge and must well get a contractor to do the job. Downpayment in fact are in stages. 10, 45, 30 and 15. Upon signing of contract is 10% and 45% is upon selection of tiles. After signing of contract with them, 2 days later, the ID brought us to select tiles and he claimed the total 55% downpayment from us. After which, the tiles were placed at our empty house for almost two months and laying of tiles were done after our complaints. They promised a completion date but again it was delayed and delayed again. My sofa, bed, TV, fridge and washer were delivered and these items were placed in the dusty house. Until yesterday, they are still doing the tv console and shoes cabinet. My built-in bed frame still yet to start. I do not wish to have more argument with them, afraid they won't do a good job if situation turns worst. So, tolerate lor. Treat it as a lesson. In future, we will know what to do when come to reno. Also, definitely will not recommend to any of our friends and relatives to such a lousy reno firm.

Hi groovygenie We signed up the package with the ID firm because we thought the ID is creative from his presentation. He did follow up closely with us for signing the contract with them. When we went down to the shop, we saw many photos displayed where the boss took with celebrities and even with our MM Lee. They have actually designed and built the kitchen cabinet for Zoe Tay's house. In view of these, we were very impressed. We thought with all these compliments, surely their services and quality is not bad too. In the end, it turned out to be a big dissapointment. Here are some of the unhappy experiences: 1) After payment of deposit ($500 for the 3-D drawings), nothing came out. Only hand drawings were produced. Only after we made several complaints, the 3D drawings for kitchen and living room were given. Also, the designs were not what we discussed. The ID in fact not that creative as we thought! He was quite limited in giving us ideas or design concept. I had no choice by browsing reno magezines, web and visiting friend's house for more design ideas. In the end, we told him what we want and he just follow. 2) The ID always went MIS. Hard to find him. Call him no respond also. Many times when we had appointment with him, he will use all sorts of excuses to tell us he can't make it on the day and postponed the appointment. That's why our reno keep delay and delay lor. 3) We paid 55% downpayment with no drawing given. So, we don't even know our design theme and concept. Believe? You guys might think how come we were so silly to pay downpayment with nothing concrete. This is because we are first time engage in reno works and no idea how it should go about. 4) What promised was never been delivered. A lot of empty promises. Furthermore, things were done not according to our discussion. 5) Many many more..... dissappointment..... unhappiness......arguments.....frustration...... 6) Call the boss, he didn't do much and instead asked us to look for the ID's asst to feedback..... OMG!
