“Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend Novcon. I was disappointed with the quality and felt my house project was not given proper attention. Although they appear good on social media, my actual experience was different. I eventually decided to terminate my contract even though I accepted a financial loss because of the stress. I hope others carefully evaluate before deciding.” No to NOVCOn

Hello first time to find contractor, anyone here have already experienced to hire JEMM Builders? They already sent me a proposal and this includes the complete signed and sealed plan and the lot plan. Any other contractor recommendation? Our place is located in Cavite. Thank you

Not sure if this is the right sub, but how much did the construction increase this year?

Reason I am asking is we are planning to build our house. It is 2.5 floors, because of our subdivision rules, workable lot area is only 60 sqm (total lot area is 150). Our contractor quoted us 9M.

1st floor is 60, second floor is 60, and 3rd is 25. They quoted us 9M (kasama gate). Na fall inlove na kami sa plan, sinabi ng architect kung di daw nag increase yung price sakto daw budget namin (budget discussion was April) pero dahil sa inflation 9M na daw. Our budget was 6M.

Any feedback on the contractors on my shortlist? This list is based on my personal research, including discussions and reviews from Reddit and other online forums.

Hello, wanted to get some thoughts on whether to:

Option A -> get a design and build contractor to get all the work done based on what i need, or

Option B -> a contractor to handle only those that would require permits/plans and DIY the rest

Context: My unit was recently turned over (from DMCI) but i'm feeling off sa ilaw and paintwork was a bit lousy, mukang minadali. I only got it for personal use so i don't think i'll need a major renovation. I've talked to some contractors and i admit i'm learning a lot as i go along + encountered some shady ones. Happy to exchange ideas and learn further from the experienced guys and gala here

Hello All!

I have procured a property and would like to build a home on it. Any contractors who can help point me in the right direction in regards to like all of it lol

Guys anyone na nag contract kay how’s of construction. Engineer Tolentino. Kamusta po especially residential house? Since I saw his vlogs on Youtube I have been watching them consistently. Naghahanap me matinong contractor para mag build po ng house ko(Cavite Area). Salamat po.

Does it give me the right to be frustrated and angry if a client agreed to proceed with the rest of the renders for the renovation of their home only to ghost you after every thing is laid out and ready for implementation?

So back story, my client who inquired with us 2 years ago decided on January that she wanted to move forward with the renovation of her family home. We were happy to provide her with an estimate and initial designs and in return, liked our designs but requested to tweak it a little according to what she wants and finally told me they were determined to have me as their contactor. Eventually, she decided that she wanted to just add a second floor to their bungalow home (and we all know how complicated this is considering it is an old house) that I had to assign an architect solely for this project. This went on for 2 months of site visits, meetings, and adjustments of designs and BOQ.

I feel like I was deceived and ended up at a loss with all the time, effort, and money I invested in their project, and I at least want to get something out of it if I still can.

Hello, I would just like to ask if any of you have had a house built by Arkin design and build? I would just like to ask for feedback, thank you 😊
