vineyard 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Is he talking about me? Hehe...no lah, mine was delayed due to fengshui.Actually was the ID's fault; he planned the hacking of walls without consulting me, and only told me like a few days before. So I rushed to see the FS master whether can dong tu or not, but alas, the dong tu date was a few days after the planned hacking date. Accordingly, for my case, got a big group who want to see the hacking; HDB, town council, structural engineer, etc. So it was very difficult to get them together again, and that's why delay until 12 jun'07.If not because of this, my hacking of wall would have been approved long time ago. You can check the approval status on MyHDBPage.ahh, maybe he is really referring to you. which contractor you engaged? Wah so many people need to see your hacking, HDB, town council, structural engineer, ID and yourself. How about the MP, PM SM ? congratulations guys!mine took bout 2 weeks to approve if the PE dont screw up and give everything in proper.thanks! for the PE not to screw up, that is beyond our control liao... Btw, will any of you guys be around tonight? feels like viewing your renovation process if convenient (paisey paisey )? I will be visiting the contractor tonight on the 10th floor to finalise the quotation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zirhk3355 1 Report post Posted June 7, 2007 you hacking kitchen only right? if that's its fine confirm approve. toilet wall think cannot hack 1.Ya the kitchen wall, but that's the one causing alot of problems because there is a structural overhung above and about five concealed switches, including the doorbell.I am also hacking away the door of my MBR and re-built another wall, but that was approved on the spot.

Edwin Yap 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2007 Went to our new flat immediately yday after key collections and what a tiny flat we got.Parents were like asking me, R u sure u applied for a 4rm flat instead of a 3rm flat?However its really a nice view from our unit. Can see Holland Village from our living area and Orchard from our MBR.Btw zirhk3355, the solid surface sink in your MBR toilet is given by HDB rite? Tot our floorplan so similar, I was expecting the same too but got a normal white basin instead. Haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
