WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Just a word of testimony regarding the renovation experience with Dave and company.
He came to our house, a HDB 5 room unit, to assess the renovation needs and requirements. Over 2 visits, they proposed the ideas for the flooring, kitchen, hall, bedrooms, new store, cabinets etc.
Dave has been very patient and provided creative solutions to resolve many of our requests. Overall we find that he has good supervisions over the various trades like carpentry, electrical, aircon, plumbing, tiling.
Workmanship is good throughout and rectification for feedback is usually prompt and satisfactorily carried out. Even the after moving in follow up works are well supported.
Dave is a very reliable & dependable contractor. He often goes beyond his call of duty.
We appreciate their work quality and integrity and would recommend them without reservations.
I would like to expressed my appreciation to Dave and his team for doing a good job and delivering quality work for my house at Rivergate.
Dave, the owner of the firm, is a very responsible, sincere and reliable man. He takes pride in the projects he took on.
Being a humble man and very on the ground, sometimes he even help to do the finishing touches. I could also see that he has very good relationship with all his workers. That is important as that allows him to hire quality craftsman for the carpentry.
On the whole, I’m satisfied with his services and the quality of his work.
Thank you Dave !
I was recommended to Dave Chng by an ex work colleague who had also used Hong Lim Interior Design for the renovations to her own apartment. I didn’t know any other contractors but I trusted by ex- colleague’s judgment.
My apartment had been rented out for the past 7 years while my family and I were in London, and it needed a serious overhaul and refresh. I met Dave once prior to the circuit breaker and discussed my ideas with him.
My 3-bedroom apartment is not very big so I was very clear that the priority was to create storage space. I also wanted a modern minimalist interior at the same time. Dave was very patient with me and we worked through many revisions of the plan. Before we could finalize the plan, I had to return to London to pack up my things and arrange them to be shipped back to Singapore, so we had to continue our planning thorough WhatsApp, emails and phone calls.
Whilst I was in London, we finalized the plans and by this time the project had grown in scope a fair bit, the work now involved, redesigning the master bed room, and bathroom to create a dressing corner for my wife and a new shower area, extending the 2 remaining bedrooms, redesigning the common bathroom, putting in a new kitchen, creating an Italian inspired living room with sleek cabinetry, redesigning the patio area and rebuilding new wardrobes for all the rooms! Work started as soon as it was possible to do so without me actually being in Singapore. It was very stressful for me and my wife to have to decide all the design elements, from the type and colours of the tiles, wood veneers, wall colours, lighting etc. etc. only through electronic means, but looking back, I don’t’ think it would have worked without Dave’s patience with me and his good advice (which I am glad I followed (mostly!)).
Dave was thoroughly professional and attentive to all my detailed questions. He was also sensitive to costs as I had to told him from the start that I was working to a strict budget! Dave has excellent sense of dedication to his work and is so personally involved in the work. Until now, he comes personally (with his workmen) to fix all the little kinks, which you would expect after the main work is done. I am very pleased with the end result and we are all now enjoying our “new” home.
Many of my neighbors and friends have commented on the design of the living room, and the additional space which he created in the bedrooms. I have no hesitation to recommend Dave and his company to anyone who needs a decent, professional and patient contractor to do any high-quality renovation or building works. .
