My Tampines Home

Recommended Posts

Hi Zhiz

Thanks for the PM. The walls in Tampines is really terrible, I used to stay at blk 867A and later blk 127 and both have the same problem, I plaster the whole house but after 2-3 years, the problem arise, complain to both HDB and town council and both play tai zi. Even approach MP also no use. Both HDB and Town council came my house checked and checked also can solve. First it might be upside water proofing no good, so they hack and I have to bear half the cost, still problem came back, then they think is the brick no good. inside the house side is handled by HDB and outside the house one is handled by town council...we are talking about the same piece of brick just different side...faint..in the end, they inject some chemical into the wall to harden the water (no sure what is that). after 1-2 months still came back, so my walls end up with many patches. They are hollow kind and if you hit on them, they fall off and the patch gets bigger and bigger, if you touch, they are ****. then they said could be sewage problem from all the floors upside...I nearly died....

wah sian!!!

yah you are right, the more you whack the bigger the hole.

we are staying on the top floor so i think when it pours, we going to have a swimming pool above our ceiling and may led to terrible bulging ceiling.

these few days rain a lot and its showing on our ceiling. jialat.

haiz plastering old tampines wall is like putting on make up on old lady face

One of the thing i know abt top floor is the phone line always affected after rain, not sure if it's true for all. but for my fiends flat got to call singtel every time after heavy rain.

My painted ceiling already has water mark after the big rain falls. The old tampines ceiling also cmi liao. Common toilet pipe is leaking at the ceiling, kitchen lights also affected. Masterbedroom ceiling also maybe. Pipe at recess area is rusty and leaking.

Contacted Tampines Town Council to get them to discuss with my ID.

Hope it can be resolved soon so my painting can carry on
