Hong Kong's first renovation matching platform, CoDECO, celebrates its 11th anniversary. Since its establishment in 2013, CoDECO has successfully served over 4,000 households and numerous commercial projects. Over the past 11 years, CoDECO has been dedicated to transforming the traditional renovation industry, focusing on technology and innovation to provide high-quality and reliable renovation matching services. From its initial focus on connecting renovation professionals with clients, CoDECO has now become a leading brand in the industry. With the launch of the "Renovation Experience Center" in 2023 and the "Masters Club" in 2024, CoDECO further enhances customer experience, building a more comprehensive renovation ecosystem and establishing new standards for the industry.
All-New 10,000+ sq.ft Renovation Experience Center
CoDECO took a significant step forward with its sister brand "CoCoMall by CoDECO" in mid-2023, to open a 10,000+ square feet "Renovation Experience Center" at CoDECO headquarter in Shau Kei Wan, while the center hosts "Renovation Preparation Classes" monthly and inviting renovation professionals to answer questions on-site and share insights on renovation ideas, quotation analysis, contractors and materials selection. This helps clients to understand the renovation process and allows them to physically feel and purchase renovation materials such as paint, tiles, and appliances with the professional assistance of the consultants. With thousands of appointments made, CoDECO had marked an incredible figure of over 76% of clients who successfully matched with renovation professionals purchased materials at the "Renovation Experience Center".
"The Renovation Preparation Class covered numerous topics, including costs and quotations, project timelines and practices, laws and regulations, and Q&A session with consultants and contractors. I highly recommend the class to those who are planning to renovate their home." Ms. Nancy Leung, client of CoDECO commented.
Milestones of the Decade - Master Club by CoDECO
To celebrate the successful business journey, "Masters Club" was introduced in 2024, aiming to connect renovation professionals, interior designers and material suppliers, in order to build a complete renovation matching ecosystem. Comprising "CoDECO" and "CoCoMall", Master Club introduced the Purple Diamond Membership Program to provide effective promotional and sales channels for suppliers. This includes website advertising, promotion opportunities in "Renovation Preparation Classes" and "Renovation Experience Center", and also our new promotion leaflets "Renovation Dim Sum Paper". Additionally, Master Club will be offering numerous membership tiers, from basic Blue Diamond to the premium Black Diamond, catering the needs of renovation companies and interior designers with services ranging from material discounts, points redemption to comprehensive sales support, professional training, and potential clients development.
Enhancing Contractor Vetting System and Renovation Standards
CoDECO’s "100% Renovation Completion Guarantee" had ensured all matched renovation cases through five major protection systems and renovation standards, including quality assurance of renovation professionals, payment protection, timely completion, project inspection, and project delay compensation system. All affiliated renovation professionals must pass 29 strict vetting criteria, with only 7% of new applicants successfully joining in 2024.
Furthermore, CoDECO provides free renovation consultant quotation and review service. Once the quotation had been accepted by the clients, projects will be carried out and inspected according to the "Hong Kong Renovation Guidelines", jointly formulated by CoDECO, Hong Kong Arbitration Society, and Hong Kong Building Inspection Association, aiming on reducing renovation disputes and improving on-time completion rates. This service allows clients to have a more reliable and satisfactory renovation experience, while standardizing renovation contracts help to protect the rights and benefits of both parties.
Woody Tong, CEO and Founder of CoDECO stated "We always understand the concerns of customers who are planning to remodel their home, especially when there are arguments between clients and contractors in the middle of the project, which might lead to delays or abandonment. CoDECO had assisted over 4,000 homes to reduce such occurrences, while smoothen the entire renovation process, and helping to enhance the industry's image and raise professional standards. While expanding our business scope, CoDECO will actively increase customers’ trust , and create a more healthy environment to ensure successful completion of renovation projects."
