About us

A Seremban contractor, run by the man who is on your site

Pretech Construction was registered in 2011 by Mr. Ashok to take on road, drainage and civil works in Negeri Sembilan. Fourteen years later the trades have widened, but the way of working has not.

Our story

Started on roads. Ended up building houses.

Pretech began with road works — resurfacing, new AC-DC carriageway and JKR-standard maintenance under main contractors around Seremban, Nilai and Port Dickson. Drainage came next, because on a road contract the drain is always part of the job, and because councils kept asking.

From there the work widened the way it does for a civil contractor who finishes what he starts: sewerage reticulation for housing schemes, retaining walls and slope repair, sheet piling along river banks, bridge maintenance for JPS — and then whole buildings. Terrace houses at Linggi. Staff quarters at Felda Sungai Lui. A Tamil school at Sungai Pelek. Today, a two-storey bungalow at Impian Golf in Kajang.

What has not changed is the size. Pretech is deliberately a small firm. Mr. Ashok prices the jobs, runs the sites and answers the phone — which is slower to scale, but it is the reason main contractors keep calling back and why a house owner gets a straight answer rather than a salesman's one.

The team

Who you will actually be dealing with

Plus our own general workers, machine operators and drivers, supplemented by long-standing subcontractors when a job calls for them.

Plant & equipment

We turn up with our own machines

Plant hire is where small contractors lose control of their programme — the machine you need arrives a week late, and the client pays for the wait. We own the core fleet, so a drain repair does not have to queue behind somebody else's booking.

FAQ

About the company

Is Pretech Construction registered?
Yes. The business is registered with SSM under 201103132542 (NS0085095-M), incorporated on 13 June 2011, and is a CIDB-registered contractor. We are happy to send the current certificates on WhatsApp before you commit to anything.
How big is the company?
Small and deliberately so — a director who runs the sites, a project manager, a site supervisor, admin, and our own general workers and machine operators, scaled up with trusted subcontractors when a job needs it. It means the person you speak to is the person responsible.
Do you own your machinery?
Yes — excavators, backhoe loaders, tipper lorries, rollers, a paver and the usual small plant. Owning them is why we can start a small job quickly and why our prices do not carry a hire margin.
What insurance and safety arrangements do you have?
Workmen's compensation and the insurances required by the contracts we work under, with the specific cover confirmed per project. On main contractor sites we work under their safety plan; on our own sites we run to CIDB safety requirements.
Can you provide a company profile for tendering?
Yes. Ask on WhatsApp and we will send the full company profile, registration certificates, project reference list and letters of award as a PDF.
