I had a very disappointing experience with this renovation contractor. Throughout the project, he repeatedly failed to keep his promises and continuously gave false deadlines, causing significant delays to my renovation. At one point, my house was left completely empty for three weeks with no workers on site and no progress made. Despite collecting almost 90% of the payment, the renovation was not even 50% completed. He also promised to bear half of my STORHUB storage fees due to the delay but eventually refused to honour his commitment. When I requested a refund, he refused, claiming that he had already paid deposits to his workers and that they were busy with other projects. After collecting our 90% payment, we can see a delay in his response and replies to us. He started to give late replies or ignore us. The lack of accountability, poor project management, and broken promises caused my family a great deal of stress and inconvenience. I hope future homeowners exercise caution and ensure they have proper payment schedules and written commitments before engaging other contractors. Most importantly, do not engage this contractor.

We’ve had a great experience with ✨ Natalie ✨ . Her professionalism, ownership and calmness throughout the process was exceptional. She takes tremendous care in building our home, almost as though it were her own, and never takes shortcuts. She often catches details that we completely miss during our site visits - e.g. she noticed that our door 🚪 knobs were installed too high and took the initiative to send them back for correction. We didn’t even notice it! This type of ID where to find 🤣 When one of our chosen dark wood laminates went out of stock, instead of taking the easy route and simply suggesting an alternative, she guided us through the matching process again, considering our other laminate, wall and floor colours. 🌈 There’s also a lot of behind-the-scenes work — measurements, material selection, proposals and coordinating with different vendors — and she took the bulk of that off our shoulders. Her design taste is excellent as well, and we’ve never had an instance where we second-guessed her recommendations. 💪 We’re approaching the end of this “not so straightforward” reno and are happy with seeing our dream home come to life. ❤️ Seriously dont look any further if you want a great experience for your reno!

Angie did an awesome job helping us renovate our place. We were aiming for a clean, Japanese-style look, and she really delivered. What we appreciated most was that she actually listened and understood exactly what we wanted right from the start. She took our requirements and turned them into a highly functional, great-looking space. The execution was just as impressive. The workmanship and carpentry are top-notch and feel built to last. It’s hard to find an ID who gets the design right and ensures high-quality construction, but Angie nailed both. Highly recommend working with her.

We went to a few IDs and settled on forefront due to assurance from our friends as well as the design concept of our ID Wilfred! Wilfred was able to take into consideration my partner’s and my preferences and come up with a unique proposal for us which not other many IDs could do. Our renovation process was smooth and Wilfred was always open to changes along the way. Our PM Eugene also helped us to settle many of the nitty gritty stuff so we didn’t have to. Grateful to both of them for working on this with us!

Really happy with our kitchen renovation and very thankful that we had Aloysius from WHST DESIGN as our ID! ❤️ From the start, Aloysius was very easy to communicate with and always patient with us. He always willing to listen and advise us on what would work better, both in terms of design and practicality. He follow up closely during the renovation and kept us updated on the progress.

We had a really good experience working with Russell for our home renovation. He managed the project well and was efficient in coordinating his contractors and contacts to keep the work moving at a good pace. One thing we really appreciated was how responsive and patient he was. We’ve heard many stories of homeowners having IDs or contractors who take a long time to reply, but we never had that issue with Russell. Whenever we had questions or concerns, he responded promptly and was always patient, reassuring and never pushy, even when we had many questions or needed time to make decisions. Russell is also a very efficient problem solver. When issues came up, he would quickly coordinate with the relevant people to get things sorted, which helped relieve a lot of our worries. What stood out most was his sense of responsibility. When we encountered an issue, he was upfront and prepared to take ownership if it turned out to be on his end. It was eventually established that the issue wasn’t his fault, but we really appreciated that he didn’t immediately push the responsibility away. He also kept to his word and followed through on his promises. Overall, Russell is responsive, patient, reliable and accountable, and we’re very thankful for the assurance and support he gave us throughout our renovation journey. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable designer who takes responsibility for his work and genuinely tries his best to make the renovation process as smooth as possible.

Connected with Cedric from Elite Boss through Qanvast. From the first day we hit off due to his confident yet warm personality which was what finalise my decision to proceed with his services. I would consider my "business" is relatively small compared to other projects but he made no compromises and made sure to give me his fullest attention and ensure quality of work. Even when I was unsure with what I wanted or when there were changes in direction due to new info, he was always very patient and informative in providing insights to help me make an informed decision. I was also very pleased with the project management as I was always updated on the work planned and it's completion without my asking. Highly recommended ID, you would be very lucky to hire him as your designer
