We were first time home owners renovating a 35 year old 5 room unit. After speaking to several IDs, we finally decided on Ansel from Carpenter Direct because he was very patient and understanding, never once pressuring us. We had many amateur questions but he kindly took us through everything. Running through the quotation, he always recommended the most cost effective and practical option instead of the most expensive one- this was how we knew he sincerely wanted the best for us. The quotation turned out to be the most competitive and we were reassured by the good track record on Qanvast. The renovation process itself went very smoothly, we were so astonished by the speed! Our unit needed a lot of hacking and carpentry yet the whole process took only 2 months- many of our friends doing renovation at the same time said ours progressed so much faster than theirs. We are both very busy with work and Ansel always went out of his way to help us whenever we needed assistance with receiving deliveries etc. - he even helped us receive the keys from the old tenants at the very start of the renovation! Ansel would answer our queries round the clock even when we had questions on public holidays/Sundays. He always treated all our questions seriously, however trivial, and would take time to explain it to us or help us address the problem. For instance when the company we bought the sink from demanded that we personally bring it to their factory and pay extra to drill a hole for our water filter (which we could not find the time to do due to our working hours) , Ansel and his team managed to drill the hole themselves without the special factory equipment, saving us a lot of trouble. As the unit was old, there were a lot of unexpected surprises like fixed beams etc. during the renovation process but Ansel proposed good solutions to all of them and helped us conceal all the pipes and wiring perfectly. If there were any hiccups along the way, Ansel would always pick them up early and let us know how they were rectifying it. We were extremely pleased by the quality of every aspect of the renovation outcomes- from the impeccably laid tiles to the beautiful carpentry. All in all, we strongly recommend you to choose Carpenter Direct because they are 1) fast 2) competitively priced 3) produce extremely high quality work 4) have a very dedicated team. Thank you so much Ansel and team for making our dream home a reality! We are so happy to go home everyday now.

I was referred to Nicholas by a colleague of mine. Though the renovation prices have been steadily rising in the market, he made sure that we are able to carry out the renovation at the best price possible. He had been very attentive to our project’s timeline and managed to meet the requested completion date. He also handled unforeseen hiccups professionally and no gimmicks, 10/10 would recommend.
