growler 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2009 If you have an opening where the plumber can open and check the pipes, I believe it's ok. If it's a total box-up where there's no way to open to check, I think HDB will not approve. There are some of Uncle's works where the pipes are concealed in a cabinet and can be opened.

mrspiglet 2 Report post Posted May 11, 2009 Mimi Yaya, i think box up of those big big pipes or straight lined pipes is ok. As long as its not behind concrete and tiles. I think its becos those bathroom pipes got a lot of twist and joints so there's a higher chance of leakage? pinkpetter u not at work ah? How come can online at this hour? poseidon_gal U mean the false wall? Its 5.5ft tall. My tv is also not wall mounted leh, its resting on the tv console. i tot for wall mounted TV will need a taller wall? growler Eh, mine cannot 'open' one leh. Its just normal boxup. So anything wrong, i'll just have to hack it away. Big sewage pipes dun leak that easily ba? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can also store brooms, mops, etc. They don't leak but if your neighbour do some works, etc, there could be a possibility of damaging the pipes, thus causing a leak.

In fact, the moment the bidet spray was turned on it was spoiled. the close up of your MBR curtain looks good. Actually it is not true that top floor water pressure no good. Top floor is usually serve by the roof top water tank and it is just directly above u, so pressure should be good. Unless your block is serve by direct supply, meaning direct from PUB mains and no water tank at the top then the higher floors will experience lower pressure. ur bidet spoil liao ahh?? then how?? replacing new?
