I work with Angeline.......u thinking of trying them?

wanted to get them to come my office to hv a look and quote. called dave but he reject me liao.

she always complain the English spoken by those actors is too "chim" for her.....so she depend on sub-titles. If no sub-titles, chances I will her subtitler...lol

Thats why we have ours like side by side in my previous place.....

so anything she did not understand she will do the following steps

1. She pause, I pause.

2. She rewind then I turn my head slightly to my right and watch...

3. Then I try to explain.........

4. Sometimes I got killed and got to wait, then I can also watch what she's watching until some1 come save me....lol

If opposite side.....painful liao...................

mmmm...I think I will reject leslie's idea of opposite side now......

Thank You Angteko again!!!!!.........

:dancingqueen:

Ic, same as me, but wasnt able to multitask like u do, so i can only company her to watch together.

But not as exaggarating like u loh, need to pause here and there. haha :P

Hmmm..did I say anything?? keke

So whats your preferred layout?? :unsure:

from 35+ to 45+.......lol.....but I guess I have to give them the benefit of doubt as the first one is verbal

I did not really scrutinize the details, but probably the feature walls and kitchen (redo). I think the kitchen design will need more discussion.

Their pricing is pretty on par with Intra, as there are differences in design and material used.

Personally, I feel what makes a key experience is the last 3%-5% of the work done. Cause a lot of renovators will rush to do the main reno, then touch up, and then everything looks ready but there is some touch-up. Then they will move the workforce to another unit, and typically will use the spare time (like early morning, or evening) to do the touch-ups and repair. Thus whereas I have experience Intra commitment to that, I hope CLC will demonstrate that too, lol, via this forum.....hahahahaha

What??!!?? Did u do a overhaul of your house??

Your house so big only 45+???

Hmm...that 5%, I cant comment yet, maybe u wait for my input bah. haha

But I have fate with CLC, as the old forumers have good comment abt their post service.

Leslie also told me that, after the final touch up, it will be under warranty period, which means that if there is any rectification needed, got to let them know in advance, so they can arrange pple to come down (best to give them 4 days notice). I think to be fair to them, I'm ok with this clause and dont expect them to come down immdiately unless is very serious issue like water leaking.

lol...I let them decide what to do, though there are some specifics like 2 bathroom no touch, but the rest is free-for-all.....lol...

so generally it has

1. 3 bedroom make over

2. kitchen make over

3. 1 toilet and kitchen overhaul

4. Living/Dining/bomb shelter feature

5. What to do with the family area for my kids....lol
