My experience was terrifying. Got notice to collect my HDB studio apartment key in late Nov 2015. Have to source to sell my 3R flat without further delay which eventually sold by 28 Jan 16. Between, a further delay by HDB in the handling over the new flat to late Dec 2015, giving me barely a month to settle in my new flat as I had to move out on the same date. High stress and time pressured to get everything ready for the big move - things like packing and getting rid of unwanted things, looking for a mover, but more importantly to get a reliable contractor to have minor alterations to the new flat. Signed up to Reno to get views for a reliable contractor and managed to get some responds from a handful of contractors. May be most contractors are only interested in bigger flats. Further checks on their reviews gave me further headaches as many were not that problem free. You know lah, once you signed a contract, you cannot back out. No way out, I started looking for more recommendations in Renotalk forum and came across a number of good reviews on UrbanDesign House which incidentally responded to my quote late I think fate is kind to me. My thought at that moment was since the review was good and the enquiry for the job came at the right time, this could be that fate destined the firm is to be my contractor. I do believe in fate and the ID Ms Angie Ng, is a petite sweet looking, soft spoken madam. Many of my friends advised me to choose a man rather than a lady but my feeling was otherwise because I believe female is more patience, more attentive and more devoted to their job. OMG, Angie, she is fantastic. She carried out her responsibilities with devotion. She promised me that the flat will be ready for me before the CNY. She wasted no time getting the workers to start work the following day I signed the agreement. She took care of the design and even go to the extend of dealing with the main contractor on my behalf on the defects of my flat. My thoughts - I could have got different contractors to attend specific jobs and might even get better bargains but I think at the end of the day the money spent though slightly higher is well spent. Above all, Angie is very caring and responsible. UrbanDesign is fortunate to have her in their foal. Thank you Angie, thank you for going that extra mile to give me that comfortable home. You earned my appraisal.

I too looking for one? Could you let me have your contact. Thanks Jim.

Hi glad to hear that your worries are over but mine just beginning. Will be getting my key soon and need to vacate my flat sooner. Now looking for a reliable contractor could help me finish some renovation to my 2R HDB before the handover begins. Hope your recommendation can solve my problems. Can you PM me your connection, pl?
