Hi guys, just want to share a lobang. Recently I renovated my house through my friend's contractor. Very good service and nice workmanship. And most important very reasonable pricing! I had saved almost 20% on the total work done with respect to the cheapest quote I had gotten. And flexible payment scheme.

What happened is that he will come up a quote for me with all the break down of the work to be done and charges in cost price. Then he will ask his workers to do the job for me. Upon completion of each stage of the work I made payment directly to his workers and raw material suppliers like cement and tiles. So everything is transparent to me with no hidden cost. He in turn get rebates from his suppliers which cover his fees in helping me to coordinate all the reno works. Only additional cost is that I need to pay his friend to get a HDB permit about $300 as he seldom do HDB projects and specialize in private projects.

Also we have a great discount on the purchase of tiles as he told me usually the price shown at the tiles show room is "mark up" to cover the commission of the ID that bring us to select the tiles and he can get special price for them.

Quite a good deal as I dun have to come up with 50% of the total reno cost before start work and no hidden cost to me as payment is made directly to the suppliers. After the whole reno I compare back to the quotes I get I got a shock how much ripping off I will be getting if I engaged a regular ID to do the job for me. :(
