Amoyz 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2007 wah chim lehhh.. i dunno what can cause sha qi what can rid of it one. but if your bedroom window face carpark directly, better have some sound proof thing. cos where i'm staying currently , my bro's room also faces carpark and sometimes in the morning quite noisy when ppl start engine wor.your FS master nv advise you what to do for reno? how come must revise again one.i think because of our area the blocks are very near each other, sun can only shine till mostly half the living room only so gererally most of the units will be dark. I think should be ok ba, if u leave the windows open should dry quite fast lor. nowadays sun v strong in the morning also.when u all planning to move in ah? we haven't look for any ID yet , my hubby say maybe want to just find some sample designs and contact contractors directly wor but i got no confidence. :|I plan to move end Jan...Need close monitoring if contact contractor directly lor... just a matter of need more time and effort. To me ID is only one point of contact for all the works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spinball 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2007 Hi Missysg, so far still ok lor and is good in condition.... we are quite happy, though our house is quite dusty and dirty... so we spent the public holiday on Thursday cleaning and mopping the floor... We did our defect inspection it takes time especially on inspecting the tiles.. Missysg, think I saw you in your unit yesterday Thursday ar.... !! Btw, you going to make a door for your Kitchen? I can't do it cos left side will be cabinet and right side got socket. How many defects u find?Dun think you guys need to close all windows since it is best to leave open the top row windows abit...yoz...i so tired wor. Did my initial door opening on yesterday as my bf last minutes got things to do so did my opening at 3plus instead of 1pm. Aiyo was raining heavily wor and now my bedroom flooring all wet wet le. i had tried to mop the flooring, use clothes to wipe the water again and also use fan to dry it still no use lei. the flooring still wet wet. sigh.Overall my unit still ok la..but FS master said is abit dark cos no sunshine. So suggest me to put a water feature at my lucky spot so as to make the QI flow smoothly. my bedroom window facing the carpark so got sha qi. so FS master teach me how to block the sha qi away. overall he said the unit is ok. but need to do cleansing anot...got to revised again after my reno. so spinball, hows yr unit?

missysg 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2007 (edited) ckoonyin ~ if just house consultation plus auspicious date for an chuan, dong tu, initital dr opening I spent like $480 after $120 discount. The master quite good lor..at least he think of some logical and pratical way in avoiding the sha qi blah blah blah. u know hor one of my bedroom when i look out from the window i saw the shelter of the pathway. Thought is nothing right but when look carefully...it looks like a "wu gong" the top of the shelter design looks like the leg of the wu gong and it pass thru the pavilion...and symbolise "wu gong chu xue" aiya dunno how to explain la. anyway if yr unit can see the shelter then look carefully and u know what i meant. but not very bad la cos luckily the wu gong "head" did not face my unit or that bedroom. (Too bad it faces my neighbour unit. Hope he got see feng shui lor)aforahma - think light ba. cos FS master told me that i near carpark so when they park the car sure gt the reverse light shine thru my window that is sha qi. although is a short while still not gd got to tackle it. Use the car blind spot mirror to tackle it. by the way, come out with yr own design then get contractor to do lor. can be done la since ours is a premium flat cooridnation will not be as tidious as standard. if u need help let me know i try to give u contacts of what i have. amoyz ~ i hope yr electrcian close for u.seriously i try to use fan to dry up the flooring, use micro fibre clothes to wipe still no use. still wet wet. but i think because of the salt on the floor la. (we throw rice and salt when doing initial opening then kenna rain somemore thats y make the flooring so wet until no matter how i try to dry it also no use? ) spinball ~ wow u already finish cleaning le wor? i haven. cos FS master said must leave the salt and rice + the tea leave in the house for a few days before we clear away. so might be going back there tonight to clean up my bedroom first. if not will be tomorrow le lor. ya i was there the whole day yesterday (thur). u saw me in my unit? u mean u drop my unit yesterday huh? y dun knock on my door aiya can invite u in ma although still dirty dirty. Ermmm i din rem seeing anyone yesterday leii. (lolx maybe i too tired liao din notice)Going to look for defects after my cleaning tomorrow. By the way if u intend to do a door for yr kitchen can ask them to move yr socket position lor. Edited December 21, 2007 by missysg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
