Dracula 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2008 Tks Drac, read your reno blog and am really looking forward to getting our own reno started. Ours is on the upper floors...could have got a #37 at 79A but missed out by 1 queue number. Nonetheless, very happy w what we got. Now looking forward to next Tues. Maybe can have a free showcase of your unit someday? Yeah sure! Next week will only have ceilings and floorings.... so nothing much to see yet. Got to wait till 3rd week of june then the carpentry starts to come in... hopefully Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

groovygenie 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2008 We had that too, Vlanze, so was quite surprised. Apparently they turn on the day before you receive your keys for 'your convenience'. Good for us too, can straight away check the electricity points and water supply. Tks babymaro2003 for the welcome...

babymaro2003 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2008 Tks babymaro2003 for the welcome... Btw just a newbie questions, do u guys get to have water and electricity supply on the day u get the hse keys? Hi Vlanze, We got our water supply one week before we start the reno. Once you register, they will fix appointment date for the man to come down to turn on the water and electrcity supply. For official turn on of water and electrcity, you need to register at the counter. You can go to register at the same day you collect your key, there is a counter at HDB hub 2nd level. If you choose to pay your water and electrcity bill by giro, deposit $70. If by cash, despoit will be $100. Neighbours, please correct me if i am wrong. Baymaro2003 ey.. where is the dog now?? For me, I will bring it home, and post ads in dog forum see who lost the dog... if after a while, no one claim, then i will look for a foster family for the dog... haha u not old la... u just happen to be slightly "older" than me.. hahahaha... u are a goood big sister la... helpful.. no sad.. and u no need sleep de ar!! 4am!!! Hi meowie49, I dont mind to be the foster family for the dog. But must have a liking for that dog loh. Next time you see me, must call me Jie Jie. hahaha. But no ' Ang bao ' for you. I went giant and ikea tampines buy things and grocery. Came back quite late last night. Babymaro2003 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
