The experience with Ezekiel was truly a relief for us as first-time homeowners. There are many good things we could say, but the top 3 reasons are: 1. Transparent and clear process. Ezekiel shared costs and timelines upfront, and was very clear about what steps were involved. He was also very experienced and could advise on what to look out for. For example, one thing I really appreciated was that he recommended we go for a vinyl overlay instead of hacking and replacing the tiles as our unit was only 5 years old - which would’ve cost more and delayed the handover. 2. Counsel that we could trust. Ezekiel is very experienced and was able to give us advice that saved us a lot of time and money. He also has a good eye for design in general. Finally, the most important thing was that he didn’t just take everything we wanted. Ezekiel knew when to push back and provide his point of view, which is the greatest value an ID gives over a general contractor. 3. Responsible and responsive. We really appreciated how Ezekiel took charge of the contractors and vendors, making the lift on our end as Low as possible. At the same time, he kept us in the loop throughout with constant updates, even when he was down with COVID. This helped us to coordinate our furniture delivery, AC installation, etc really smoothly with no delays

It was an absolute pleasure working with Joanne on my renovation. I had met with a few other IDs but she stood out from the rest with her responsiveness, attention to detail, practical advice and recommendations (telling me when something I wanted wouldn't work and providing suggestions/workarounds), eye for design and initiative in sourcing for furniture. I was travelling for 4 weeks during the renovation but she was always responsive and provided constant updates throughout with video calls, videos and photos which gave me peace of mind that everything was on track. There were hiccups here and there, as expected, but she remained professional and worked extremely hard to resolve everything to my satisfaction. It was daunting embarking on the journey as a single homeowner, but really glad that I decided to entrust my renovation in her good hands. Thank you Joanne and Third Paragraph!

My husband and I are really happy with our experience with Third Paragraph. We met with 5 IDs and 1 contractor, and went with Sufen in the end as we felt that she best understood our needs and our vision for our home, and found her to be easy to work with. Sufen has been the best designer and project manager. We were wary stepping into the entire reno process as we heard of many nightmare ID stories, but she proved to be extremely responsible and responsive. Before reno, Sufen clearly understood the vibe we wanted to achieve and would provide wonderful recommendations and suggestions of what we could go with. We would go back and forth a couple of times, but she always remained patient with us and the process. Through the actual reno, we would regularly get updates from her. We did experience some hiccups here and there, but they were quickly resolved, and nowhere near the horror stories we’ve heard from others. Sufen always remained on top of the project, and was quick to provide assistance where needed. One of the best things about working with Sufen is her responsiveness - we appreciate that so much of her! I’ve since successfully recommended her services to 2 other friends. If you’re on the fence about which ID to go with, Sufen may just be your best bet. Thanks Sufen, for all the work you’ve put into making our home so wonderfully cosy. We had such a great experience working with you!
