In 2015, Mr. Helmi, the founder of Tharwa quit his role as the CEO at Alloy Advertising Sdn Bhd as he was disappointed seeing Malaysian get duped by incompetent contractor and foreign workers in hope to get their dream houses. Engaging and working with many homeowners throughout the years, many of them were victims of a fraud contractor due to lack of research on the company. They were attracted by the affordable cost offered by these contractors.

The founder started with getting 2 years mentorship with his father-in-law who is a well-versed bungalow contractor that had built more than 50 bungalows. He then started to build his first 5 units of bungalow which were located in Desa Putra, Sungai Merab Bangi. Gradually, the renovation-refurbishment task became effortless when he mastered the art of constructing a bungalow from the essential.

He then established Tharwa Engineering alongside his partner Ir. Mohd Razmi. They initiated giving consultation and advisory works to government offices, GLC companies and private companies. Until now, they have managed more than 450 projects from numerous budgets. Many of their previous projects are successful and built with trendy designs.
