You can see the beam on top.. too bad it cannot be hacked.. It splits the ceiling into 2 and requires 2 separate L-Box for the expanded living room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rover 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2012 Yes. Advisable to change the pipes to PVC. Esp so if ur block hv yet to undergo upgrading. During upgrading, inspection will be done by the HDB contractors and they'll check ur toilet water-proofing as well as all the pipes. If discovered to be iron, u'll need to change it (regardless whether u are accepting the upgrading works anot). The contractor will dismantle watever boxing u hv used to conceal the pipes and reassemble back the boxing (BUT with no guarantee that the reassembly works will be nicely done).
