You called me to apologise, but then I come here and see that you're lying and making excuses.
1) the door was mounted the wrong pay and skew
2) the plastering was not complete! and had to be redone
3) the electrical work messed up by your guys which you refused to fix
4) the painting not done
5) cheap doors that arent exterior doors bought for exterior purposes
6) 2 gates were paid for but not delivered
7) the doors were delivered but not even installed
I had paid more than the agreed amount and you kept asking for more and then disappeared. I was calling and calling you. Is this how you do business?? The receipts you provided too werent correct, so please stop trying to fool me and others

You are lying Chris.. The only issue was not the door and I ended up paying more than the agreed amount and you did not contact me or agree to anything. you disappeared

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!
Chris is not a scammer or anything. But he is genuinely incompetent when it comes to the world of contracting.
I gave Chris a small job:
1- cut and install windows and a door in two different places
Result:
Chris and his guys bought the cheapest barn doors that are already falling apart to install as exterior doors-- unbelievable!
Not only that but he installed the door frames the wrong way around AND it was skew.. I couldnt believe it when I saw it.
He also messed up my electricals but didnt admit to it even though the wire was clearly cut by his guys.
He never came back to complete the job because apparently he under quoted me. When I asked for receipts of materials he sent me some old receipts that had nothing to do with my job.
Again Chris is not a bad guy, but he is in over his head and seriously should not be doing this type of work. He does not have an actual team. He goes running around for painters and tilers..
He truly is not good at his job and should find another profession to avoid costing people money.

Hi , firstly let me start by apologizing, I understand all this, at first when i came for Qoute, i told you all what i can be done, i then worked on all the prices ,and you said the price is very high, i tried all i can to come to terms with your budget, when i was running short of materials, i called you again ,i explained to you will give me extra funds to finish the job which then decided not to, However, with all this on my shoulders, i tried to work with the resources that i have, The only thing that you were not happy with was the door, i came back to the site to check the electric cable's, and i told you that you need to change the cables as there now exposed ,and that was not part of my co contract. You, kept the remaining money, and i understood, I sent to you all the invoices of the materials i bought, 4 months after the job,you then say i gave you the wrong invoices.

I contacted Chris about work to be done at my home. He visited my home and the same afternoon I received a quote for the repair work that is needed. Once the work started, it was done professionally with good communication. The staff are friendly and allowed us to provide on items that needed a little more work. Workmanship is really top notch and I highly recommend Chris and team for renovations in your home. More...

Chris was amazing, he responded quickly to my enquiry on Bark. He arranged a consultation at my house to see what it was I needed him to do. The next day Chris and the team were at my house and started work. All the work was done and even some extra plastering was done. Thank you so much Chris to you and the team for your quick response and great work. I would highly recommend Chris Modernizing Trading as a reliable company, great work ethos and great prices :-) More...

Lucinda
Painting & Decoration - Interior
Chris, you are such a liar. My bathroom walls are yellow I sent you pictures and begged you on text messages to ask when you are coming back. You came back one day with no paint and during loadshedding when your guy couldn’t see in the bathroom. You need to tell people how I paid you extra for the half job you did. I agree with the man that says stay away from working with you. More...
Reply from CHRIS MODERNIZING TRADING PVT (LTD)
Hi Lucinda, the paint we used there was a good quality paint, it means the bathrooms doesn't get more air for moisture to ease. However, I came to your house twice and we rectified the issue on the walls and the bath we did do as there was Loadsheding and even said to me , you will let us know which day will suit so we can come back when there are lights and also when you are home. All iam waiting for is to let me know when to come through, we gladly attend to client's concerns.

i have given this company waterproofing and a ceiling installation , i had to get them out numerous times a the leaks persisted , finally got another contractor to redo the work properly , the ceiling has now fallen down onto my cars , Chris promised to come repair the damage , never arrived on each time , now claims he has no money for material , he cant be trusted , claims he doesnt guarantee his work all of a sudden . would not recommend this company at all . Every job he did i had to have redone .........stay away . More...

If you are a women and need painting and tiling done…...Please don’t use this company. Chris came and did tiling and painting in my apartment in June everything looked amazing but then on the 27th June I asked Chris to come back and have a look at the painting on the walls.
And please note I paid him on the 20th June
The walls in the bathroom that was meant to be white are now yellow. My walls look like they have only had one coat of paint
I have been begging Chris to come and redo the painting. It’s the end of August and he hasn’t come. I have called and have sent text
The paint has chipped off on the walls already in some areas of my place
I have even sent him my banking details to give me my money back and nothing
His not a man of his word made promises to come back and paint and as of today 30 August. Nothing has been done

Hi ,Chrismodernizing Trading pvt Ltd, conducted work at at the house of the above client.However ,after a month he called to say ,the walls needs some touch ups , i went to the clients house and we walked through all that needed touching up ,the inspection was done twice.The paint on the barthrooms,is not yellow like what she mentioned, that's totally not true,i have to been to the house ,all that is vissible is the water marks ,that is caused by the steem. In our last conversations, i asked her to give us time and attend to the matter . Chrismodernizing trading pvt Ltd, have never,refused to attend to ,when the clients has issue with the work we have done.we will get in touch with the client and get the matter done .

Chris came through for the works needed to be done and gave options to use theirs or our preferred paint. And they went ahead with our choice of colour for the roof. Team was professional and work was done in two days ! also repaired the cracked tiles and sealed tiles which were causing blockage. Price was also competitive. Highly recommended More...

Chris and his team was the best decision I made to replace my bathroom ceiling, not only was their quote extremely reasonable, they were polite, professional and I can not fault their work. The follow up to find out if I was happy was an added bonus and double bonus when they left their work area clean. I highly recommend Chris and his team to anyone. Thanks gent's I will use you again.
