Our experience with Inside Living and our project coordinator, Alex Tai (the owner), was an excellent one. Alex was detail-oriented and organised in planning the renovation process. He put in the effort to understand our design preferences and lifestyle requirements and tailored the design accordingly. He was patient in answering any questions we had during and after the renovation. Workmanship and quality of materials used were both up to our expectations as well. We would highly recommend Alex and Inside Living.

Professional at start but didnt deliver the project from start to finish- delays, design compromise and sub standard quality and so much frustration on working with them. In the end there is no invoice or warranty provided.

Hi, I would like to share my experience with my ID as I had recently completed renovation for my 3 room resale HDB Unit. I had met up with a total of 10+ IDs and contractors. It was frustrating after meeting a handful of them realizing they are totally unprofessional until I stumbled upon friends’ recommendation about his ID (Jessie) from Inside Living, I was pleasantly pleased when I met her. As opposed to the rest of the IDs who came in pairs or even more, she turned up alone armed with a measuring tape and floor plan. I have one ID who showed up forgetting the floor plan. Most of the IDs I saw employed the “scare” tactic to hurry me into signing the dotted line. This ID is different and after reviewing the quotation, I had indicated that I am running a tight budget as the wet works/tiles and carpentry made up the bulk of the cost, she was able to offer me alternative solutions and I ended up not needing the pre-mix cement at all and I have dropped some of the items which did not affect the aesthetic element as much like screeding of kitchen wall and dropping the wall tiles and having wall tiles in my shower room only. I have come across more than one ID who suggested I take up renovation loans from the bank. This is a stark contrast to my ID who try to offer solutions and alternatives on what are the items that can be dropped to keep the cost within budget. While most people had concerns that a female ID may not have a good working relationship with the contractors, it was definitely not the case for her. As with any activity that requires coordination, occasional minor hiccups are expected but Jessie ensured that these were being fixed. I will not say the entire renovation is 100% flawless but the overall experience has been a positive one. She exhibited professionalism as evidenced by how she works; before renovations started, she gave my neighbours a heads up and assure my neighbours there will be rectification works should their units be affected due to renovations carried out in my unit. After my final inspection of the unit, I had requested for assistance to install things like doorbells, blinds etc. and also some minor rectifications needed and she was responsive enough to see them through. I can certainly attest that she is the best choice I had made. as she may be handling multiple projects, notice she may not be immediately responsive thru text message. I communicated with her using whatsapp most of the time and I will call her when it is urgent and requires immediate attention. I was glad I found her and I am happy with the renovation and I will be glad to share her contact.

I’d like to share my positive experience with Inside Living Pte Ltd. I was recommended by my friend to engage Alex Tai from Inside Living for my BTO renovation. I wanted a design that is out of the norm with rounded edges (with the thought of having a child-friendly design). He came up with the design quickly and patiently listened to my feedback on his 3D drawings through several appointments. He took my feedback into consideration and went through a few rounds of amendments before we finalise on the design I like. Through my appointments with him, he showed his experience in the choice of colours to match the look and feel I wanted. He brought me and my husband along to choose floor tiles, toilet and kitchen accessories and lightings. We had a good experience with the shops that he brought us to, where there is a wide variety to choose from and offered at a good price and also offer good after-sales service. He was able to recommend lights that are modern and also able to bring out the ambience. During the renovation, I requested on exact measurements on some of my carpentry and kitchen tops. Alex noted on my requirements and took the effort to check on the workers to ensure that the carpentry and kitchen top is done exactly to the measurements I wanted. With his experience, he was able to recommend designs that are lively (the look & feel I wanted) and also ensure it's easy to maintain. He helped to check on the finishing to ensure the workmanship is up to expectations and I am happy with the final workmanship and the prompt service provided. His workers did a good job to clean up the house prior to handing over the house keys to us, this really helped cos we need not spend too much effort to clean the house prior to moving in. His workers were also polite and ensured that their works are up to standards and we were satisfied. My friends and family also commented that the workmanship of my renovation is well done. I would highly recommend Alex from Inside Living for renovation as he ensures expectations are met with quality work delivered. He has also been patient and responsive to my queries throughout the renovation period and even after renovation.

I received 5 quotes in Mar 16 and chose Inside Living for their price, friendly service and good reviews. Was serviced by ID Jayden Leong and he is a patient and responsible ID. He listened to my needs and tried many ideas to suit my fengshui requirement. He is responsible and even answered my calls on some Sundays and gave me advice when I was looking for furniture. He also helped me liase with condo management for defects. Overall, he made my renovation an easy and relief one. Not to mention we became friends after this encounter.

Being a first time home owner, we had shortlisted a few ID companies to explore what each company has to offer. Eventually, we decided to engage Xavier from Inside Living as our ID. Xavier was able to incorporate our ideas into the design of the house. I was looking for a contemporary and sleek layout for the home and requested Xavier for a design based on these characteristics. I am quite particular on the design and Xavier has been very patient and would edit the drawings to ensure that the finalized design meets customers' expectations. He would also take the time to show us the different laminates, materials and colour charts which can be used for the carpentry in the house. On some occasions, our discussions spanned outside his official knock-off time, yet he is still very professional and ensures we are comfortable with the colours and materials chosen. We are very pleased with the end result of the house and we would recommend Xavier if you are looking for an ID with a flair for design and whom is able to turn ideas into a reality. Thank you Xavier.

My name is Yogita Mistry. Few years back, my uncle recomended Inside Living / Alex Tai. I got him to do our common HDB bathroom. I was amazed at the speed and worksmanship put in. He turned a dull bathroom to a five star one without pinching my pocket! Thus, last year, when i got the keys to my condo, Alex was my first choice! I had less than 3 months to finish completely redoing my new apt, including hacking many walls and totally changing the layout to suit my needs. As a precaution, i also checked with 2 other design firms. Alex's presentation was the most proffessional and rates were not high at all as compared to the other 2. Importantly i had the peace of mind that he will execute this job well. Less than 3 Months was a daunting task for the amt of work i had on my reno list. Most my friends who had done complete make overs befores and the other 2 design firms thougt it was impossible. Alex and his team gave me a fully finished house in less than 3 months with great quality put in. I gave Alex and his team a 10/10 for speed, quality and attention to my needs. This year i recomended him to my good friend and he did her Bayshore apt too. He changed the drab old apt to fantastic haven!

Teban Garden

Dear Inside Living Interior Design, We are proud owners of Teban Garden 4-room HDB unit. We came to know this company through renovations forum. We contacted Inside living from Taipei (job posting to Taiwan), a lady called Ms. Shermin answered our phone call, upon understanding our situation that we are located oversea, she tried her best to laise with us through WhatsApp for 2 weeks discussion about our budget and requirement . She is very responsive in answering our questions. Prior signing contract with Inside living upon returning to Singapore, we went to visit 3 interior designer sites (including Inside Living) to see their workmanship. Inside Living have the best workmanship and hence we decided to hand our house over to them. Ms.Shermin have excellent design creativity and concept for our small house area, drawing and suggesting us different layout we could have for our master bedroom. Upon signing contract, we selected out table top material, wardrobe laminates, wall paints Color and PD door on the same day, saving our journey time. Prior visiting Inside Living partners, we went around to get some quotations so we can compare the service and price. We came to know that all Inside Living have the best price quote and met our budget and design. Harfary (Floor tiles) There are plenty of tiles to select in the showroom and sales person service is very good as well. Twin city( Air conditioner) Price quoted is slightly higher than the price(~$25) I got from Gain city, we ended up choosing her partner is mainly for her easier management for the project timeline. During the site meeting, the boss suggested which area is the most suitable to install the aircon due to Hdb layout plan, I'm impressed with the boss for the careness bu suggesting us to put the aircon sideway instead in front of us . The boss is saying we will get dry throat and uncomfortable with cold air blowing on our face. MGL ( Curtains) Upon arrival after signing contract without having our lunch, the lady boss is very thoughful, quickly get her workers to buy us some toasted breads nearby to feed our hunger. Her knowledge on fabric materials is superb, they have blackout curtains to any degree of sunlight blockage available. Understanding we have kids at home, she offered to us additional cushion free of charges (2 for each pair of curtain). Upon installation one of our roller blind , it shown some black fingerprint, and was exchanged back to us within a week of replacement. Excellent service recommended. Vlux (lighting) Selection from budget to high end lighting is available. Salesman is quick and response fast on my questions. Best of all, all my lighting is under 2 years full warrantee , which means we just need to ring them up if any damage or not working, they will send technician over to fix them free of charge, no transport charges at all , thumb up Wasser bath (bathroom accessories, sink, wash basin, water heater, oven) Sales lady immediately show us the wash basin and sink upon hearing our requirement on our limited dimension. She asked we need any electronic items and I left a Bosch oven and Joven storage heater, she quickly ring up her supplier and managed to get the price we wanted and it really save my time to buy from the original supplier myself . All bathroom accessories is all displayed on the wall and you get to feel the quality of the accessories , it's heavy when you lifted it up. Carpenter (Ah Guang team) Workmanship is excellent, plywood is used for almost all carpentry work. Touch up on joint lines is provided and they clean all wardrobes and cabinets during their last day on site, all cleaned without any wood dusts, scratches, or stains , really saved a lot of my time cleaning them up. Plumper Upon installation of our washing machine, We test run the machine at 9pm after settling our daughter to bed. My neighbour downstair came up and complained that the water leak all over their service yard and I immediately ring up Ms. Shermin regarding the matter, she inmediately get her plumper to resolve this leakage the next day morning. It's purely due to us for not using the water drainage pipe for nearly four years due to us posted oversea. Hdb pipe could not hold the pressure or force from the new washing machine for the first time and thus causing the leakage. Tiler (Hai Chao) Flooring is done up nicely with final touch up on the floor gaps with white cement. There is no cracks tiles but just with some fine scratches which I personally feel that is normal . Painter Left over paints was given to us , to touch up any stains that happen during furniture move in, etc Mirror/ glass door Frosted glass panel and door is excellent quality, workman is excellent especially installation of my floor spring kitchen swing glass door, drilling and cuting of my floor tile left no damages , meaning save our cost on 3D drawing be actual completed project looks 95% identical
