Ya... originally say mid Mar...

now i dunno when can move in... When install the kitchen cabinet ytd, they accidentally drill a hole in my water pipe...

I WANNA CRY!!!! Call HDB, they say contractor to weld back the pipe, do water pressure test, observe for a week.

I ask my designer for some sort of compensation or warranty in a event that the water pipe burst after we move in...

SIAN SIAN SUPER SIAN!!!!

Ask your contractor to use a metal detector to detect the exact location of the pipe before they drill, the blue sticker is a good 10cm away from my actual pipe, I read HDB rules, the blue sticker is jus an indication, contractor have to verify the exact location themselves.

For the cement screed, you can go HDB cck, they will give u a form to fill up, you have to give them 1 of your padlock keys also, or if your designer already change to a number lock, u can give them the number lock password.

I have been holding back all my purchases as I cant guage a timeline for my reno.. Maybe after I got my keys next week, got a confirmation when is the cement screed, confirmation with my ID when he can start, then I dare to start buying all my stuff.. hee..

OMG..... :jawdrop: They drill into your water pipe!!

I will sure to inform my ID about this... But I believe the welding will stop the leaking.. Cos the water pressure is not too high... unless the contractor did a bad job in welding..

Thanks for the info on the cement screed!
