hi, actually the price is quite reasonable...

Ben Ang

i actually find it very reasonable, especially for a small scale job.

Hacking of floors are usually not cheap. Please ensure that they also make good the walls that may be affected by the hacking.

Thanks for the advises. Looks like I can proceed to sign the contract with him then.

Its not reasonable pricing, its CHEAP. however.. do watch out of hidden cost

Hi Keil,

Sorry for the late reply. Have PM you my contractor's details.

Just a quick update on my contractor as I'm towards the final home run of my mini home reno. Despite my Reno being a small job, he has been a really responsible contractor. Each day, before the start of works, he will be at my place to brief all the workers/ sub con their job requirements. Then he'll talk to me to check on my satisfaction with progress, give me updates and ideas on improvements (if required). Ive even thrown him a few last minute curve balls and he responded to each additional request with a smile. Where additional works were required, he always provided a add-on quotation with all prices and items listed clearly. Only when I gave the green light, then he proceeded.

Should anyone require pics of his work or his contacts, do feel free to contact me. I'll be glad to share. Else you can take a look at my T-Blog. More pics coming up there.

P/s: I'm not related to him in any way. Just want to pay back the forum for all the many advises and information I've obtained these few months. This forum has been a huge help in guiding me in my Reno journey.
