dbkungfu 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 (edited) This small case liao....got come across need to stop work for 1 mth cos wife came back from operation need lots of rest....after that, complaint to HDB that one part of the cornice dropped down cos is due to the reno work, wall hairlines cracks due to the hacking and the best part is I only hack common bath flooring and they are staying on top. Whatever works going to do, need to inform them, may be it be painting, carpentry, lighting or plumbling. Need to update owner, also need to update the owner on top. hmmm this doesnt sound comforting to me ... mine downstair neighbor's baby seem to have medical condition also. Anyway, sound like HDB double standard really exist though permit mentioned 9-5pm weekdays. wow your owner must be screaming everyday Based on mutual agreement, my current buyer allow me to stay (rent) max 2 months after handover. But wanna to avoid doing that. chit-chat a bit, anyone know whether any hdb build with "vacum" or gap between floor. So that noise is reduce. I know condo have something like that. Nowaday, new high end/class hdb bto like in amk, tanjung pagar (duxton Pinnacle) cost around $700k+, so just wonder whether they come with such feature. But I know mine definitely dont have Edited May 22, 2010 by dbkungfu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dbkungfu 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2010 (edited) Day 5 (Thursday) - wet works & finalize on carpentry design Discussed with ID & carpenter on site on plan 3D design. Some minor change on my tv console design - scv, player, htpc compartment at middle of console to change to frosted glass (6mm thickness) as concern the IR signal may failed if using solid plywood though there are "holes". Glass should not have any problem. Didnt see much progress but ID reassure me that we are still on schedule. Luckily can speak Teo Chew, can discuss well with carpenter. Meeting end around 10pm. Common toilet - with water proofing is done (2 layer). Pipe to be boxup with water proofing as well Mbr toilet love this tiles - around $14 persqft, ID gave it free but just 2 rows.
