A Shah Alam contractor you can hold to paper.
Everyone searching for a renovation contractor in Shah Alam is really searching for the same thing: someone registered, someone whose quote means what it says, and someone who will still answer the phone in month three.
The checks you should run on any Shah Alam contractor
Before you hire anyone, including us, three checks: a real CIDB registration you can verify, a registered company rather than a personal bank account, and completed work you can see photographed as built, not rendered. Duotone's answers are on the table: CIDB registration 0120190531-SL027880, Duotone Design & Build Sdn. Bhd. (202601013575 / 1675673-U), and three completed Shah Alam homes on this site, every photo taken after handover.
The fourth check is quieter but matters most: how the quote is written. A single lump-sum line is a blank cheque for disputes. Every Duotone quotation is itemised and explained line by line, and the scope is settled in writing before demolition starts, including what happens if we open a wall and find something unexpected.
A contractor that also designs
Duotone is a design and build company, which changes what "contractor" means for you. The usual arrangement puts a designer's drawing in one hand and a builder's interpretation in the other, with you refereeing the gap. Here the same team draws and builds, so site decisions in Shah Alam are made by people who understood the intent from day one. When you want a contractor for work already designed elsewhere, we can price that too; we will tell you honestly whether the drawings are buildable as they stand.
What we build in Shah Alam
- Home renovation. Kitchens, bathrooms, whole homes; by property type, see terrace house and condo renovation.
- House extensions. Rear, side and kitchen extensions, engineered and approved through MBSA properly.
- Kitchen renovation. Cabinetry, worktops and the plumbing, gas and electrical behind them, under one warranty.
- Design and build. The full journey under one accountable team, from first sketch to keys.
Permits and submission plans are managed end-to-end, including coordination with third-party architect consultants where Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam requires an endorsed drawing. An unapproved extension is only cheaper until the stop-work order.

Fair questions, straight answers.
The same answers we give in person, written down so you can hold us to them later.
Are you a registered renovation contractor in Shah Alam?
Yes. Duotone is CIDB registered under registration number 0120190531-SL027880 and operates as Duotone Design & Build Sdn. Bhd. (202601013575 / 1675673-U), based nearby in Subang Jaya and working in Shah Alam regularly. A registered company with a registered team, not a middleman passing your job to whoever is free.
Do you handle MBSA permits and extensions?
Yes, we manage the process end-to-end, including working permits, submission plans, and coordination with third-party architect consultants where Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam requires an endorsed drawing for an extension or structural change.
Do you give itemised quotations?
Always. Every quotation is itemised and explained line by line before you approve it, and the scope is settled in writing before construction starts. That is how hidden costs are prevented: not by promises, by paperwork you can read.
Have you completed renovations in Shah Alam?
Yes, three: a family terrace in Seksyen 18 and two homes in Bukit Jelutong, including a bungalow. All three are photographed on this site as delivered, not as renders.
