ID Firm: PJ DESIGNWORKS PTE LTD

Designer(s): Ah Peng

Budget: $40k - $50k

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

I would recommend them to my friends and relative. He provide great service and and experience he had. He able to provide valid and honest advice on the pros and cons of the design I requested. This help me in my decision making in balancing between the design we like and at the same time achieving or meet the practical concepts of the design. As an owner of the house. I would like to live in my house with no regard of the renovation.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

There are many design can be found handy in website. But not all are suitable to everyone and the location (eg country climate) also play key role. Some design are nice but May not be practical in our country. Thus, find a good designer to renovate your home is important. Listen to them and do your home work with their advise to find the truth yourself. After all the end fruits, sweet and bitter decision is from you not the contractor.

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

Having a busy schedule means that I can’t check on my renovation works as close as I should however having work with Mr Peng before, his company gives me peace of mind that they will project manage it well and more importantly giving me good workmanship at reasonable pricing.

Peng and Sin Ying is thoughtful and helpful. Peng helps to give some ideas for my renovations. He helped me to get the correct P trap WC for my master's bathroom.

Response fast to my queries on the workmanship and have it corrected.

Designer(s): YILIN

Budget: $50k - $60k

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

Yes, definitely. Thanks to Yilin, the renovation of my house was completed quite smoothly. She was fully committed to making sure that she delivered what she promised. Being a good listener, she was able to capture my design ideas in her 3D drawings which helped me visualise what the final outcome would look like. Throughout the renovation period, she was most patient with me, promptly responding to my requests, answering my many queries and alerting me of the changes in the schedule even in the middle of the night and during weekends. She was most helpful in keeping the renovation costs within my budget. I am also immensely grateful to her sub-contractors for their quality worksmanship and attentiveness to detail.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

- Look for a designer who works only with experienced sub-contractors that take pride in their work to ensure quality workmanship. - Work out as many details as you can of what you want to be done to help the designer understand your requirements. - Check carefully that all details of the renovation tasks such as the scope, types of materials used, dimensions and unit costs are correctly documented in the quotation so that the designer can give an accurate estimation of the cost of the project before the start of renovation.

ID Firm: PJ DESIGNWORKS PTE LTD

Designer(s): Peng

Budget: $60k - $70k

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

I will definitely recommend this designer to my families and friends. I engaged Peng's company 5 years ago to do some simple renovation work. He provided good quality of work (tiles overlay, painting, carpentry) @ reasonable price. What stands out is his superb after sales service. Peng and his staff responded very quickly and efficiently to settle any issues, and at no cost. Therefore when my family decided to do major renovation this year, we chose Peng and his company without any hesitation.. He is very engaging, listens to our needs and provide practical & sensible suggestions. He pays attention to details (eg "box" to protect the switch from rain, types of taps that are practical and good to use, etc). And when we encountered a problem with the shower screen, he did not give excuses but instead worked with us to resolve the issue. He kept us posted of the progress by sending photos of the renovation status and frequent phone calls. Most importantly the renovation was completed within the stipulated time. Peng's quotation is extremely detailed, listing down every single element of the renovation works, so there is no surprise or hidden cost upon completion of the project. Thanks to Peng and his company. my family had little stress from the renovation and had enjoyed seeing the transformation of our flat!

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

It is important to get a contractor who is good, reliable and communicative. This is more important than just considering the cost of the renovation.

I would like to recommend PJ Design Works because they are trustworthy and responsible in their works. They have vast experience in term of interior design and also renovation works as I have engaged them for my previous 2 houses.

Designer(s): Ah Peng

Budget: $60k - $70k

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

Ah Peng was always on standby to assist in queries and follow-up, which he managed to deliver promptly all the time. He is extremely experienced in his field, as evidenced by the spot-on advice that he gives, as well as his extensive list of contacts and workers who do a great job under his guidance. Ah Peng and his team have a good eye for detail, not only aesthetics-wise, but also coming from a practical point of view. His services are suitable for all categories of residential living, since his workmanship and customer service skills are impeccable. Although he informed us that our renovation would be completed in about 2 months, he managed to do so in slightly less than the designated period. Overall, it was a hassle-free and enjoyable experience working with Ah Peng and his dedicated team of designers.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

To give some allowance to the renovation budget to possibly stretch up to about 15% from estimated costs, as there are always manpower and hidden costs to account for. To be flexible in the concept, as there could be changes along the way which may be necessary, or even enhance the original ideas. To schedule for furniture delivery at least one week before the estimated time of completion of the renovation, so as to be able to see if the concept and furnishings fulfill the desired end product.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Always compare what the interior designer has quoted you with the market rate. Set a renovation budget and shortlist 2 to 5 interior designers who you’re interested to work with. Ensure that the bare necessities of your home are done properly. If possible, research the interior designer who’s managing your renovation work

Definitely. Peng is an absolute pleasure to work with - he is an old-school gentleman and is highly responsive, responsible and reliable.

To us, finding a reliable and responsible person to take charge of our renovation process was crucial. Having somebody like Peng in charge helped us avoid many potential obstacles, and made it so much easier for us to overcome those unavoidable hiccups.

This was my second time hiring Ah Peng to work on our second new home. On both occasions of contracting, we had minimum problems/issues with the renovation works and schedule as the company was always kept us informed and updated on the status of the renovation. Ah Peng is also very creative and could propose better and more practical options for our considerations and lifestyle, having helped us with our first renovation few years ago. He was also a very responsible person who made sure that the works were done properly to maintain good workmanship and quality. The renovation works were completed on time for us to celebrate our first CNY in this home. Family and friends were complimented that the designs and workmanship /quality of the finishings were good. It had been a very pleasant experience for both our homes and we will contract with him in future again.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Work closely with your designer cum contractor and choose one that understands your needs and can help you design your new/existing home with a "heart".

Yes I would recommend this Interior Designer PJ Designworks. Ah Peng has went above and beyond to provide help and even entertained late night sms. He is very professional and the ideas that he gives out is very practical and sound, living in a 2 room flat has a lot of challenges in space and this is where sound practical advice is highly appreciated. He has recommended a few ideas to help maximum space. One more thing great about this ID is that after the renovation, you still can contact him easily to help touch up on a few minor flaws. Great after service support.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

After seeing a few contractors / ID, try to check their past clients to find out their past works. A bit of homework can save you lots of pain and hard earned dollars.

Ronnie and his team were very prompt in answering to our queries, offering suggestions to aid in our design and decision making. The renovation schedule was monitored closely but the best thing was the follow up even after the renovation was over. This is the relationship that was built through the numerous discussion in the planning.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Always do your homework on the things that you wish to have, and the design you wish to do. This will make the planning phase much more easier and allows the ID to work to your requirement and not the other way around. This is your home, designed by you, and executed by them. Teamwork and collaboration is the essence!

ID Firm: PJ DESIGNWORKS PTE LTD

Designer(s): Mr Peng

Budget: $60k - $70k

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

PJ Design Works has been my preferred renovation contractor and I had used his renovation services for both my home and my in law's home. The reason for this is because Mr Peng is a responsible and flexible person, which means to say that he is committed to the schedule and quality of his renovation work. Beside this, his vast experience in home renovation and the design trend, is able to provide me with good advise for practical and graceful design to suit my lifestyle needs. For example, an integrated storage/display cabinet cum TV console was proposed as a partition between the dinning and living area. This structure had become the icon of my home and I am pretty delighted with this idea/design. Other that the above, he would also take initiative to conceal those ugly cable or air con trunking behind the door which is the major concerns for most home owners in old HDB flats and this is a plus point for me. The carpentry workmanship is also good, supplying blum fitting closure system and all the internal cabinet are using wood texture laminate instead of those common white PVC which turns yellow over time. As for the flooring of my kitchen, toilet and living, they were all very well done. The gaps between the tiles are all uniform and I did not find any uneven surface or hollow tiles. Last but not least, I am impressed by his immediate after sales service which includes repairing my floor laminate caused by air con leakage and electrical issues (after 3 years) without any additional charges. With my above mentioned experience of his service, I am glad to say that I had confident and trust with him. Hence I have no worries for this renovation as i know that it is in good hands.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Renovation cost is always the concern for many people including myself. However the major objective of the renovation is to build a home according to your needs or lifestyle according to your budget. Hence I would always prefer somebody who can listen to my details and working out somethings.

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

I knew about this renovation company through my close friend. My friend has very positive comments about this firm's design and renovation. It took around 20 days for my new home to be designed and renovated completely. Now, my entire family is living in our new house and enjoying the beauty and comfort of the renovation thanks to PJ Designworks. PJ Designworks gave me 3 memorable impressions: 1. The firm is professional They really respect our (home owner's) opinions, suggestions and concepts. The firm then considers the practicality and feasibility of our suggestions and provide recommendations to improve the existing ideas. The firm is highly skilled in its expertise - from design and renovation of large spaces such as livings rooms to intricacies in bed rooms. 2. The firm is dedicated and detailed Employees that helped us throughout the renovation process are really hardworking and committed to their work. They are very careful, systematic and well-planned. Therefore, there was a high efficiency in their work. After renovation has ended, the entire house was cleaned carefully without leaving any dusts behind. 3. The firm helps customers to cut cost There was a right choice of materials and a good match of material/colour. The fee-charging was reasonable. I would highly recommend this firm to my family and friends.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Future homeowners, you should have an idea about what kind of home you want (in terms of colour, feel etc) according to your location for example. For my case, my house was beside the sea and the concepts my family had was related to it. Before meeting with PJ Designworks, I went to check out the renovation of the households near my future home (so, do some homework before meeting up with your designer!) Following that, my designer gave me very good advices and helped me to improve on my ideas. Set yourself an appropriate timeframe for the design and renovation. I would recommend 1 month! This will help to save time and cost. PJ Designworks was very good in this area and helped us to complete everything within 20 days. Convey clearly about the technical details before the renovation starts. This may include the position of your wires and the location of your furnitures. Regarding this area, PJ Designworks was extremely patient, answering to our endless enquiries. We are very satisfied with the technical works of the firm.

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

Design resulted in more spacious and well ventilated working space that is univerally friendly for kitchen and laundry area. Changed common bathroom door location to the laundry area which enlarged the kitchen area. Removed door and window frame and elevated step that separated kitchen from laundry area.. Thoughtful touches such as having common elevated space for dryer and washing machine created a compact working area. Designer also managed to create a subtle and space saving built in shoe cabinet upon request, with capacity to accommodate a large family.. Designer prompt in responding to queries and requests and team of workers are responsible and reliable.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Estimated about 1 month for renovation, as we continued to stay in renovated home, daily cleaning up was taxing, especially after work and with young kids. Would advise future homeworkers to stay else where while renovation is ongoing and do a one time massive cleanip instead of daily cleanup. Consider space saving and univerally friendly design as much as possible so that less changes needed in the long run.

PJ Designworks is one ID and main contractor that I will strongly recommend for future and current homeowners looking to renovate their house. PJ will work closely with you on your design concepts and ideas with valid and practical suggestions to ensure that your design ideas can be translated into actuality. With its extensive experience and industry knowledge, PJ often offers very good recommendations on the colouring combination of materials (be it carpentry work, flooring, kitchen top) to blend smoothly with the house design concept. As usual, homeowners always have a change of design ideas during the discussion with PJ but they are always patient and listens to the homeowners. Truthful and responsible team from PJ as they do not overpromise and under deliver. In this aspect, I will give 2 thumbs up for PJ professionalism and service level. Furthermore, response time from PJ is always prompt. Even after I shifted in, PJ will always respond and come back for minor rectification work to our satisfaction. My fussy friend, in fact had engaged PJ twice and extended the recommendation to her family members and thus far, no complains about PJ from her or family members. I will definitely recommend PJ to anybody who wants a honest and responsible ID/contractor.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Most important is for homeowners to have a home design theme concept and source around for design ideas from home design magazines and other available resources. Sit down with your ID to discuss your design concepts and set a realistic time line to complete your renovation work. In this aspect, PJ is able to deliver the project according to a agreed schedule and the boss is personally involved in overseeing the project and managing his workers and even to extent of managing your neighbours complaint to HDB during the renovation period. PJ is one firm that does not do 'hanky panky' stuff and is highly reliable and trustworthy to do up your house.

ID Firm: PJ DESIGNWORKS PTE LTD

Designer(s): Ah Peng

Budget: $10k - $20k

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

Yes, we would recommend PJ Design. We were looking for very basic and simple renovations for our house, nothing fanciful. It is not always that you find a designer who is not pushy, insisting that your place should be renovated in what they recommend for the 'look'. PJ Design respected what we need and provided advice and pictures of their previous project. During the course of renovation, we were kept updated of the progress via Whatsapp. They even took pictures for us at each completion. They also took care to inspect the completed work to make sure that all are in order. I remember being informed that they will change one of the cupboard door due to a small blemish. The extent of care they put into the perfection of the product was admirable. They are also very patient with our last minute decisions. We had to get a light for our dinning area and at the eleventh hour, informed them to hold on with the installation as we changed our mind and wanted to source for another one.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

I always have the concept that we would be compelled to take in what the designer proposed. However, this experience taught me that it is not true. We got what we wanted with very practical advise from PJ. They provided and examples of the materials available. The constant updatings are also a source of relieve especially for working couples like us, who have no time to monitor the progress on site.

PJ Designworks has all-in-one service provided at their company. Our contractor, Peng, is very approachable and knowledge in his field. We felt comfortable when communicating with him. He is quick in understanding what we want and give his personal advice on how we can put our ideas to life. He is also prompt in updating the progress of our renovation without us asking. During the renovation process, he takes in feedback seriously and will rectify the problem as soon as possible. The best part about engaging PJ is their after-sale service. Even when we informed him about any problems few months later, he is quick in coming down to resolve our problem.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Do your research and be open to new ideas. When doing research, search for similar room type so you can picture the end product you want for your house. Keep on track when planning as some designs can be really nice but it might not be suitable for your house. Most importantly, don't be pressurized and act on impulse.

Yes. I will certainly recommend to my friends because PJ Design Works really provided me a very good service and design which I do not have to worry at all and I just briefly told them what I want and they were able to deliver things that I wanted. The most important thing is their price is reasonable and they are also renovating your house like their own and is very reliable.

 

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Spend more time to communicate more with your designer before renovation starts as this will best fit to your needs. Tell PJ DesignWorks what you want for your house designs and functions amd tell them your budget if you have and they will definitely deliver to you the design concept you wanted. But, pls ask them to come up with a few draughts and then from there you choose the most preferred one.

He will update my house renovation status every other days and tell me what he is going to do next. When he find that my design got some issues, he will give me his point of views and we work out together to get the best results. I do not need to go down everyday to check on the quality, progress and etc. He made it a point to send me photos via watsapp and update accordingly.

I would recommend PJ Design Works to anyone who is looking for an Interior Designer and main contractor to do up their houses. The company is very good with their services rendered to the customers. They are not hard sellers and will not try to push designs or products that you do not like. They have vast experience and will always provide good recommendation of design, materials and suggestions. They are patient, willing to sit down with you to explain the details and at the same time base on your requirements, give practical suggestions. They are always available, reachable at any time and at your convenience. My family, relatives and friends have been engaging the boss of the company to renovate our houses for the last 20 years. And they have done a very good job every time. Hardly any complaints from any one of us all these years. Their after service has been very good too. They will always come back and do repairs or rectifications without complains.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

It is good for you to have a concept and what you have in mind for your ideal home. Do some homework like going through home designs on the internet or magazine, so that you know what you want.

I would recommend this designer. My 3 apartments were designed by him. He put in effort to help to make my apartments safe and practical for my children to reside in. As I am staying with my in laws in my third apartment,, he helped to create enough storage without compromising to the aesthetic for us to keep our stuff. He is very efficient and prompt in his services. So far my husband and I are pleased with his before and after services. We have also recommended him to a number of our friends and relatives. He is a trustworthy and experienced designer cum contractor.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

It is important to source for reliable designer cum contractor. I have friends who were upset with the after renovation service. The designer must have sufficient experience to know exactly how long his company can complete the renovation. This is very important especially when one needs to move in by certain time. Delay would cost a lot of inconvenience. Not only should the design be nice, their advice on the practicality of the design is as important if you have young and old staying in. Durability of their products are crucial too if one to intent to stay at the place for more than five years.

Budget: $30k - $40k

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

Of course, I would recommend PJ Designer without any qualms. I deal with Ronnie or fondly known as Peng. He is a hands-on person and has the ability to recommend materials and designs according to budget set. Peng has a good working relationship with his co-workers and is respectable among his subordinates which is very fundamental in a renovation company. My house is 20 years old and has gone through different stages of renovation done by his company. First, it was my kitchen followed by some minor work on 2 bedrooms. The most recent are the toilets where hacking were required. It was not an easy task to renovate the house while staying in. PJ Design has taken great precaution to protect the areas and work commenced and ended swiftly.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Find a reliable company to do the job and not leave you in the lurch for uncompleted work which could really be a headache with your leave schedule. Designer company must be responsible and assist to customers' needs as some may be layman . Most important; it is the AFTER SALES SERVICE that I particularly like about PJ Design. Peng is quick to respond and will help fix or rectify any problem done by his company. PJ Design is a very reliable company that I can count on to assist me in the smallest problem that I may encounter even though the warranty period has lapsed. Thumbs up to them in this area!

He understand our need and very hands on. Not every thing requires his contractor to do. I remember him pulling a luggage to my house everytime when he visits. Inside is all his tools whereby if there is any defects or things that need to touch up, he do it on the spot. After sales service very good as well. There is once where my toilet door, the locking panel came off, I whatsapp him that my door is faulty, can they come today to fix it. Gosh, this is extremely fast. Thumbs up!

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

Do not expect that Ah Peng reno is cheap like those that you find from outside and gather your own contractors because even though those are cheaper, like say around 15k-20+k for total reno, but when you realise there is so many defects, quality of items not as good, cabinet door not straight, here and there crack, most important after sales no service cannot find them. then GG. Good Game, you can slowly find people to help you settle.... for Ah Peng, anything, give him a call. Thats it. That is how simple it is. LOL. Of course, Ah Peng is still a very considerate and reasonable person. Let him know your budget. He can always think out of the box to see what he can do for you.

Would you recommend this Interior Designer and why?

Yes, the designer was patient in listening to our needs and he kept the renovation costs within our budget. He was practical with his ideas. He shared his experience and feedback from other of his clients. Hence, we really like his design suggestions as they were tested and proven. We used this designer when renovating our first home and we found him very reliable and approachable, so we decided to use him again. We appreciate him for providing a clear breakdown of the full renovation costs. There were no hidden costs or any unnecessary works. The designer also provided us a colored 3-D picture to help us visualize how the finished renovation would look like. Also, he kept us constantly informed of the renovation progress and throughout the renovation, he was the single point of contact which relieved us greatly from the coordination work with various parties, like the management corp., the sub-contractors and so on.

What advice would you give to future homeowners?

You must be upfront with the interior designer on your expectations. Sometimes, as home owners, we get too carried away with how our dream home should look like. Unfortunately, we can only stretch our dollar so much. So always be realistic with your expectations. Set a budget that you are comfortable with and work within the means. Have an open and a two-way communication with your interior designer. Review the renovation details and the work schedules carefully to make sure you fully understand and are agreeable on the work to be done. You can ask the interior designer to show you some of their completed projects which will help you to evaluate the quality of their renovation and their workmanship. Lastly, always be reasonable on your request regarding the renovation timeline so as to avoid any disappointments later on. A rushed timeline may ultimately compromise the quality of the renovation.
