Good evening, hingi lang sana ako ng advice/tips from your experience. May ipaparenovate akong townhouse. I’m leaning towards supplying most of the materials para 1. Makasave 2. Maximize credit card (cc) with low interest.

Gusto ko sana magset ng clear expectations since first time ko din:

• Ordering and delivery:May napagtanungan na akong hardware na tumatanggap ng cc payment. Do you advice na inspeksyunin ng personal ang mga oorderin na materyales? Nagooffer sila ng quotation kaya pwedeng online ang transaction. Pero wala rin kasi akong alam sa materyales pero pwede magtanong sa kakilala.

As for delivery, paano masisigurado na madedeliver ang mga materyales on time? Kailangan ba mag-order months/weeks or pwedeng days in advance? Kailangan ba na may available magbilang ng materyales bawat delivery o pwedeng gawing sakop na ito ng contractor?

• Storage: Paano ihandle ito? Inaanticipate ko na bulk kadalasan ang magiging order pero baka merong mga materyales na isasabay kasi gagamitin din kinabukasan. Baka may mashare kayo from experience.

• Tanong ko na rin, sa BOM kasi na sinend sa akin andun na ang labor cost. Ibig bang sabihin ng ganito, yung contractor na rin ang bahalang magbayad sa nga workers? O owner ba kadalasan naghahandle ng ganito?

Excited akong mabasa ang comments ninyo. Maraming salamat po!

So far most of the contractors im researching have some for of delay and that's understandable, no problem with that. But is it true na si MASO lang ung may compensation package sa delays and explocitly stated sa contract? Ung iba kasi they don't talk about this and they dont have this at all.

Meron na po ba nakapag-try or experience magparenovate kay Nieves Construction? nasa Cavite area sila.

Ok po ba sila for construction or renovations? Wala kasi akong makita reviews about them except sa website nila.

Saka legitimate po ba sila? Di ko kasi sila makita sa PCAB.

Wala po pala akong balak magparenovate pa kasi under preselling palang yung house na bare finish, kumbaga naghahanap palang ako and nagpe-prepare, then I just found them online.

Edit: Owner's Representative 😅

Hi, everyone!

Sharing something we’ve recently started on the side 😅

We’re a small team of engineers and architects, and we’re offering Owner’s Representative services for residential and commercial construction projects, initially around Quezon City.

If you’re building a house / commercial space (or planning to build one) and you need someone to help look after the project on your behalf, that’s basically what we do. We help monitor the progress and quality of work, coordinate with the contractor, check if the work is following the plans, and keep the owner updated throughout the construction.

Parang extra pair of eyes on your project, especially for owners who are busy with work or can’t always be on-site.

We’re honestly just starting this service, so our page is still pretty new and we’re slowly building it up. 😅 But we’d love to connect with homeowners and developers who might need this kind of service, particularly those with ongoing or upcoming projects here in Quezon City.

If you know someone who might benefit from an Owner’s Rep, we’d really appreciate a referral! ❤️

You can check and contact us through our page here:

We’re planning to build a house in Antipolo. Any contractor you can refer?

Hello,

We’re planning to build a house at Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija. Any contractor you can vouch for po?

Hello,

Good day.

I sent an email to a roofing company about a quotation for, truss conversion to metal, roof replacement with insulation, stainless steel gutter replacement and pvc/metal spandrel installation.

I would like to ask if a 10,000 php fee from them is justifiable?

The Inspection includes:

assessing structural integrity, designing your roof truss, and estimating materials.

Thank you.

I have been searching for a while kung anong materials ang want kong gamitin sa bahay nag ipapatayo ko. I am considering ung TIME to build, labor cost, ung ability na mabuhat ung mga furniture or appliances kapag kinabit sa wall and san ako makakatipid pero quality and worth it lalo na sa panahon na meron tayo. Ano po marerecommend nyo based po sa na experience nyo na? I have searched AAC is negative po since need pa ng specialized tool para magkabit sa mga walls and hindi din advisable sa mga wet area.

Salamat po sa advice.

Planning to build our dream house in Angeles City.
Please reco a good contractor based on your actual experience. Ekis ako sa mga newbie contractor influencer kuno na pasikat sa social media at nakiki-collab sa mga contractor/designer influencer din kuno. 😂
I want a firm na tahimik lang sana sa social media, but their completed projects and positive reviews from actual clients speak for themselves.
Would really appreciate recommendations from those who have personally worked with them. Thank you!

Hi! Plan ko magparenovate ng ancestral home namin. Want to keep the classic Filipino vibe, tapos elevate ng onti. Anyone here na may kilalang contractor that specializes in that? And baka may experience din kayoo?

Does anyone know of a website or database that publishes current prices for construction materials here in Philippines? I'm an architect and estimator, and I'm trying to find a reliable online source for material pricing instead of relying only on supplier quotes.

If you have a go-to site or database you use, I'd appreciate the recommendation.

In availing a house construction loan with PAGIBIG, is it allowed to have the house constructed by a foreman with a team of skilled workers instead of hiring a contractor? The reason is that the contractor requires a 30% cash upfront before starting the construction, which may be difficult for me to provide.
