Include furnishing how much? Hahaha.

LOL normally guest don’t know how to navigate hdb ah? Need your cove light to guide them?

kicen kicen akoho.. By the way, is building a curved wall expensive?

Alot of ah beng ID these days. There's only a handful of good ID who really listen to home owners what they want and plan for them. Once contract signed they don't return text or call and don't follow up on the project because they don't know what to do becos the contractor can't continue with the job because ID company never pay contractor for past jobs. This is why most homeowners renovation is slow or stuck but ID will give homeowners excuses.

wat about the maintenance of the lights and if owner wan to replace TV or the lights spoil? all the hidden part makes it inaccessible no?

An ID here, a client make wanted to make a major change to a wardrobes layout midway through the installation. Design was confirmed, provided renderings, dimension and even signed the quotation of the confirmed design. She was nitpicking how ugly it was despite I chip in my experience way beforehand it won't be functional, proceeds to ignore my advice and eventually fabricated out. Thats when she feedback to me why did I not stand my ground to insist that my initial advice was much functioninal. She even said words like "You are the designer what, i believe you and now this kind of things happen, so ugly please change it" Proceeds to find minor workmanship flaws and say its not acceptable and leverage it to change the entire thing FOC Still insisted to change it but only willing to pay 10% extra of the specific item(including laminate) Complained to my superior how incompetent am I at this job. Till this day im traumatised by it. Condo owner at serangoon

Will it be cheaper if we just cut out photos from the magazines and give it to the designer to follow?

Interesting topic will there be a part 2 ? Good education for everyone 👍

Interesting video! Truly depicts about the market and ID/Contractor's sorrows! Hope this video will go viral!

MYD as usual, typical sales man. Full of reasoning to justify his case and point

One day I will be your client MYD, not just for the quality but to also learn how to be a great boss through the process .

Bca got a guideline to regulate what're the common defects. Home checkers now need to be bca certified before can provide defect check service. Cannot anyhow list anything as defects.

Industry standard lah. But must make good to the nail or screw holes. Like putting wood putty or sticker with close color.

Having worked in design field for about 10 years before switching to main con around 4 years ago, I would say for designers it is important to know the technical part too, especially when it comes to drawing the detailing/shopdrawing. With the knowledge, a designer can better understand if the design is workable or not and better communicate with contractors on site. I’ve seen some designers being over reliant on contractors on the technical & execution part, and sometimes got ‘eaten’. At the end many issues start to surface and extra time/cost is needed to resolve them

Very helpful video and so true. Quotations from contractors are strangely more expensive than IDs. Are spelling mistakes in quotations red flags too? Means the ID or contractor doesn't pay attention to details?

great content, personally prefer a closer shot instead of a wide angle shot, distracted by the background lol plus couldnt see your expressions clearly - interesting perspectives, maybe a content with homeowners about their own good/poor reno experience? and how homeowners can manage their own expectation, because when i did my family home's first reno, the 'norms' that our id mentioned were not known to us

this chris guy so arrogant on his own platform, now come to other ppl's video acting like a humbled person. pui.

Designer will tell you what you must do or don't need to do, according to your budget. Contractor will quote you everything they can do, according to your budget.

lmao 'must quote for the mental stress' is so relatable XD

Even if u itemise out for inexperienced home owners how will they know what should be there on the quote

The whole industry of renovation was never regulated and tracked before by any regulator since 20 or 30 years ago.From 1990, mainly was done by mainly Malaysian and maybe some Singaporean be it carpentry,painting and toiletry and flooring where it is by individual self and words by mouth and the cost of these materials were cheap n good value especially wooden kitchen of good material but over time today and slowly today all these skilled individual has aged and no succesor and 20 years now and last 10 years haha china man n india man and through ID company,they do like hdb project subcobtracted out and all out to bluff clients these and that and these day all are inflated costing with lousy material when u observed wooden flooring all compared to past now is mixed material...These day quality cannot compared to the quality of past in all aspects be it man or material cost inflated and simply daylights robbery because they assumed customer ignorant and 可以骗就骗过去。。大家心里有数。if not,why hdb bto quality has degraded over time. 🤔🤫🫣😅🤣😂

Designer Sell Dreams. Contractor or builder they build the Dream. Not all Designer can be Contractor. But any Contractor can be Designer

for the longest time reno industry have had a bad name, rotating door of ID from one firm to the other, ID that give drawings that are 'inspired' from other designers. I think owners should only go for ID firms that are willing to take accountability of issues that arises between their IDs and home owners. Renovation is stressful stuff, before even signing anything with ID firm should check with contractors / architects and other ID firms to have a sense of pricing for similar items, the truth is that you can pay more AND still have issues with quality, service and speed.

Maybe can do a video on how to remove VOC/Formaldehyde

Once you confirmed an ID with a company. Then the adds on price too exorbitant, even after multiple discussion cannot align? What can home owners do? I.e. people do curves+250 each. Then the ID wanna charge 1000? Find own subcon come do? Also hard leh.

Finally someone spotted Chris after being in TikTok for quite some time

How about Architect?

loved this discussion! what you think of the furniture selection nowadays for houses? do yall feel like nowadays everything is pretty similar?

the house look damnnn nice, i am also a car model collector myself as i hope to have these kind of glass shelving's in the future too!

84 ok!

“Okay”

Its so good wow

Too much laughter and giggles is irritating. Can't see much of the reno. Didn't finish watching the video.

Speak either channel 5 or channel 8.

The laughter and giggle are too much to bear.

Hv good budget then can do lah

i lowered the volume when watching this video. dunno why she speak so much louder than myd. like screaming and shouting.

MYD in this video like no effort lol. Must be cannot tahan her already.

Is the exhaust fan in the bathroom mounted to the glass?

Boss. Sleeping outside ?

a lot of nice and trendy features but price? i mean it's a showflat after all right ofc nice

This a really very nice and cosy house! 😍May i know where are the wood laminates from!

1:01 that is clearly a model and not a worker. This guy has no idea how to hold a drill and is drilling at an angle making an enlarged oblong messy hole. That is a ridiculous thing to throw in to the video.

can i know where mayiduo buy his shirt

which company does your mircocement and limewash?

is the microcement flooring done by SG Interior or 3rd party contractor/specialist?

hottest electrician @1:04 lol
