gaku70 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2009 Gaku, it is not the beam/structure wall. In fact, it is the one that we can hack...thats why it seems rather unreasonable to me when they need3 long weeks to get this approved! But good that uncle can re-deploy the workers to ur side and quickly finish yours. Yours is more urgent, mine can still wait a while... I do not know how fast they can do the job but uncle told me latest saturday can finish tiling. I was about to ask him for help to store my stuff and since he told me sure can finish, I held back my question. Think we both have our own commitments and I do hope both our houses can finish on time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suspended means lifted off floor for about 8-inch with lights underneath. My wife told me Uncle told us to go over to the Pasir Ris flat to see suspended cabinet.

My wife told me Uncle told us to go over to the Pasir Ris flat to see suspended cabinet. Initially yes...in the end uncle went ahead to build bases for me...cos he says my granite will be too heavy to hold the top. Guess it is not mine already...

familyof4 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2009 CONGRATSS!!! Finally! Uncle must have nag at the HDB officer this morning to make things move faster! Actually it's simple. It is not a beam or structural wall...and they took 3 long weeks. Whatever it is, uncle has settled it and we move on...so much for the HDB guy...making our busy uncle busier...

growler 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2009 You should write in to complain to HDB on their quality of service after your reno is complete. Do make sure they have an official reply back as they are ISO certified. Good that your reno is back on schedule Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
