Commando 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2008 Hi fellow neighbours, it's been a long time since I posted. Would like to bring to your attention regarding crack tiles in your kitchen or toilets. When I first reported the cracked tiles in my kitchen, the hdb-appointed contractors hacked off and replaced the tiles. After they'd hacked off the tiles, I noticed that the cement wall (screed) behind the tiles also had cracks. The contractors did not mend the cracked screed and simply replaced the tiles. Now I noticed fine cracks on my kitchen tiles again. Will feedback to HDB and see what they can do. If you'd previously reported such cracked tiles, please do take a closer look at the replaced tiles and see if the cracks have returned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
henrywoo1978 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2008 Hi Commando, Really long time no see you around here. Hope everythings fine for you. Well think will post some pics for other forumers here to just in case they don't understand what you mean. Well for me, the main problem is that my main door starts to crack again, but when we tried to go into the HDB website to try to resubmit the defects list again, think the link is taken off. So how do you resubmit the defect list? Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

esther ng 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2008 WOW. my kit tiles have a long crack across many affected tiles. I dunno whether they do something to the cement behind or simply replace the tiles. Must monitor closely. My cracks on the living room wall was rectified but the cracks returned even before we start reno. the hdb guy says is cos the new cement and the old cement expand/contract differently, resulting the cracks to RE-appear. =X For our hse, do we get vertical or horizontal storage heater? I dun see any red/blue sticker in the bathroom which the storage heater seller told us to look out for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
henrywoo1978 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2008 Hi Esther, Well not sure if what the contractor mentioned is true or not, but for my case, so far the tiles so far are all ok. As for the monitoring, all I did was to ensure that all the tiles are not hollow. As for the water piping, think was mentioned earlier in the forumer, we have to refer to the maps to see how the different pipes runs in the walls. As for whether to get vertical or horizontal storage heater, don;t really think that matters. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

risis 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2008 hihi, anyone overlay their toilets here? i was told by one ID that there are problems with overlaying, as the toilet is pre fabricated, tiles are hollow, may not be durable enough to hold on to the overlay tiles...
