Hi,

Still renovating my house with them (from feb) n m very disappointed with the result. Far way behind schedule and poor workmanship. Pleasssse have someone in your house when renovating and make sure they adhere to the package. I didn't do that and now ended up having regrets........ :unsure:

Didn't know that there is a ruling that you can't talk about bad experiences if you just join this forum?

Forum is about sharing and members who join have to read and judge for themselves who to believe. If members who post and get bombard with scoldings and negative comments then who want to post liao. Then only post questions, no one answers?

People that complain should back up with proof. Vice versa for those who give praises too.

As all forummers would know, there will definitely be some ID companies coming in as "ghost" writers, similar to our Straits Times Forum page, writing good things about their own companies and criticising competitors.

Of course for this case, it might be genuine that he/she had a bad experience with Baroque, but bottomline it takes two hands to clap and expectations between customers and companies may differ greatly to the extent that 1 may become rather unreasonable.

Just my 2 cents. Cheers. :)

Hee.... understand what you saying about "ghost" writers.

At the end of the day, it is really up to the home owners to protect themselves. I learnt a hard lesson of I should put everything (I really mean everything) in black and white, till this day, I regret not putting everything down on paper. If renovation don't go the way you have asked for, you can argue till you are blue in the face and the ID can say, "no, you didn't say that." and the ID would have won the dispute.

Also, if ID good, sub-con no good, back to square.

He's quite ex. I didn't do any reno with him but I had a smallish job for him to do (recommeded by a fren(. His quotation for that small job wsas 25% more than anyone else. So didin't use. Otherwise he seems quite nice and responsive.,

hi..

i also looking ID now..and just got their Quotaion.

as me is resale 5room flat..so all need to redo..

they Quota me online is about 29k.. :deal:

seem kinda too much!!!as i am going to hack more room and need more thing to do..so the adding on should be more than 29k..

the Quota is done by mike..

any good review by him?

read your blog. wah, ID gave you so much problems ah? your 5rm resale that mike quoted only 29k? i was quoted more than 35k for a resale 4 rm. what are the major things that you are doing? does your 29k include baroque's resale 5rm package price?
