yup ok, infact I calculated and think I need 12K + 9k + 9k. Will confirm with them again. Thanks bro!

U mean the voucher is for the regular aircon maintenance service? How many vouchers do they give for the servicing? I may be going down tomorrow to confirm my aircon installation with Hong Tar tomorrow.

Hi to all Hong Tar customers, may i know what voucher is that? And how fast (how many days later) can they come down after confirmation to do the first installation?

U can ask them what they are going to do about the holes created by the injection. For my case, I asked them to retile and they refused. They said they could only inject. So I asked how are they going to deal with the holes and they said they'll revarnish. Val, u can try bsc again and if they do not budge, use this link and "complaint" aka sound unhappy. I'm sure hdb can do a better job than bsc. I have a feeling the earlier batch of complainees managed to get most rectifications done professionally while bsc seemed to treat the later batch with a little bochupness.

Nice bro. Thanks! Will show my wife and see if she still wants it. I feel it's good to have it because can make full use of the limited space in the toilet. As for the rubber piece, u can try those shops that sell shower glass or glass doors (eg, Besglas).

yo bro, I haven't bathed in the MBR yet. I also didn't notice if there's a deliberate opening below the glass door but I will go check mine. If the opening is default, then I think water coming out of the gap is inevitable because of the "action" when bathing For DIY, I think outside got sell the rubber piece. U know the vertical rubber that is used on the glass door to join the fixed glass when the door is closed? Yah that piece hor, maybe can buy and put below the glass door. oh yah, noticed that u made a cupboard under the vanity top in MBR. May I know how much does it cost? The vanity corner is rounded, did ur cupboard corner blend together? Maybe can post a pic and see?

Hi, Try and find hollow parquet and mark them for BSC to fill it up. After they'd injected glue into the parquet, they'll have to polish and varnish it for u. My bedrooms were handled this way. But of course it'll be better if u can get them to re-tile ur parquet which some of the forumers managed to do so. I couldn't get them to reparquet even though there were more than 50 marked parquet tiles in every room

Hi shootmie, too much ah? I only agak-agak: 2 x 20 L litex for 2 layers for the entire house walls including ceiling 1 x 1 L for door frame The rest are 5 L of various shades for 2 layers for the entire house walls and ceiling Hi teodami, yes I will be painting it myself. Will probably rope in friends too. The contractor did offer the paint job for about $900 but I don't know what kind of paint they will be using since the paint already cost me $600+. Moreover, i intend to paint 2 layers of litex before the actual colors. That is to ensure better effects when the actual colors are applied. I think the contractor will probably jump straight to the actual colors.

I haven't been doing anything to my house because I've been too busy over the past few weeks (plus 2 weeks of ICT) so today, I finally decided to settle as many things as possible! Bought 13 cans of paint, ordered my kitchen sink, hob, hood, storage heater. As I drop by to put the paint, noted that the kitchen cabinet base has been laid. Can't wait for the next phase.

Ok hope they'll hack it off for u because they have alot of excuses for not doing it. Try to get HDB to press them abit.

Yah they'll polish it till it becomes flat. That's what they did to my cracked parquet and those with footprint stains. After a revarnish, it'll become less obvious. What u can do is to submit a "defects report" online via HDB website. The HDB officer will attend to it and the response time is definitely faster than BSC.

Rose, feedback to HDB (not BSC), they will go dwn take a look and advise u. If necessary, they will request BSC to fix it. shutiao, bsc oso tore out my masking tape w/o rectifying my defects. A mail to HDB got them solved within a week. As im on ICT, the HDB guy went dwn to settle it for me.

Saw some road works from thurs onwards at the cross junction at Ave 4. Cant be so fast right? *keeping fingers crossed*

HDB called me and said my pending defects have been rectified except the main door and windows. I'll be going down to take a look and if it's ok, I'll take over liao. !! Hope to start reno soon!

My dad also mentioned that his quote is cheaper than what an ID quoted my bro's flat some years back. That was why he contacted the contractor for me. I haven't bought any lights yet. Will update when I've made the purchases !!

I was quoted $900 for living room Lbox and dining room false ceiling. Workmanship is good as he'd done up my parent's home and bro's home. He also offered to paint the house for $900. Not sure if the painting is cheap for non-ID recommended painters because an ID quoted me $1500.

HDB called me today after I submitted another online defects report stating all the pending and unsatisfactory rectifications. They will go down and look at my unit and get back to me. Hopefully something will be done soon.

Thanks for the verification!

Hi! Welcome. Do check out the Defects thread here to see what are the common defects to look out for.

Thanks for the heads up. I must say the price you got is very good. !!

Hi bro, Where did u buy the reel and how much did it cost u? And u mentioned that u bought the AMP crimper for $80? Solid anot? Are there cheaper crimpers?

no problem bro. For the benefit of all residents. I typed and talked only. No need to dig

Thanks! I will take a look at my house tomorrow as I have informed the foreman yesterday of some of the unsatisfactory rectifications. If the repairs are still not done properly, I will call HDB. And I think BSC will remember me for this.

Oh ok. I thought BSC and HDB were the same channels. Thanks for the headsup. shutiao06, maybe you can do the same.

Finally found this post... I feedbacked to LTA regarding the opening of gaps / Putting up U-turn signs on Jurong West St 64 / Opening another entrance along Jurong West Ave 4. Yesterday I received a call from them and they will be looking into it (with HDB?). Hope we get good news and a safer road!
