One month+ after site visit, not a single quotation given. Empty promises again and again. Would not recommend if you don't have a year to wait for them. Nothing else to say, so i will keep repeating until i hit the minimum characters. One month+ after site visit, not a single quotation given. Empty promises again and again.

First impression, suggested a phone call at 12PM, no call until 4-5PM-ish, he said he was busy. Came to view house on saturday, came alone, seem unbothered and din't properly measure anything or give details. Left saying will send quotation, almost 1 week gone still have yet to receive. No comment on their handiwork and design abilities, but definitely felt this designer was judgemental and din't even want to accept in the first place, would not recommend. Designer name Zian.

Pricy with poor quality and workmanship. Started renovation since Mac 24. Yet to rectify a few more defects/ output of work. Not settle as of 17 Nov 24. Leaking sink, TV panel start cracking (poor workmanship and quality), headboard for the 3 bedrooms, terrible looking with a big gap in between the cushion and the lights. The workers left scratches and mess after each work and rectifying jobs. Terrible paint quality that I instructed to repaint few places that too still left some untidy and bad paint jobs

The pricing is transparent and the quality of work/material is top notch. Shout out to Martin, Casey and the team for overseeing the entire renovation procress. Highly recommend for folks that want an hassle free and peace of mind renovation journey. Will definitely engage Under The C for my 2nd home in the future 😉

I had engaged Klaas as the ID staff seems qualified and impressive during our first meeting and site visit. However, I am disappointed with the outcome and services provided by Klaas after engaging them. I have engaged Klaas to provide the design concept/mood board with a payment of RM1,000. What was presented to me was just cut and paste of examples from their completed works or company portfolio to form the proposed designed concept/mood board which I could have easily source from the internet on my own. For the amount paid, I was expecting more, such as a physical mood board with the proposed design concept, colour scheme and materials to be presented. If I had known the kind of effort put in to the design concept/mood board and outcome that I will receive, I would definitely not pay for it nor engaged their services.

I hired Elaine and John for my house renovation, and I’m very pleased with the results. Elaine has a great design sense and offered valuable advice that aligned with my requirements, while John’s strong technical knowledge ensured the renovation was carried out smoothly. They were a pleasure to work with, delivering the project on time with excellent service. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of renovation work for their home.

It is my first time in engaging an Interior Design firm to renovate my newly bought home and they did not disappoint. Ken did an amazing job in understanding my requirements (modern luxury style) as well as budget that was set and proposed a design that captured my heart the moment I saw it. I can't wait to live in my future house and we agreed on the design and quotation on paper before starting the renovation work. The renovation process certainly took sometime as I'm renovating the whole house and every room, but it's worth the wait as everything was done nicely and beautifully. It is easy to work with the team as they will try their best as well as their utmost capability to fulfill my request. Overall, I'm happy to come home everyday and will certainly recommend The Roof Studio to anyone that is looking to hire an interior design firm to transform / upgrade their existing space.
