All Tanglin Halt Road Neighbours! Report In Here!

My unit facing same direction also, finally getting keys next monday.

For those who got their keys, any major defects so far? Or any particular things to take note when checking for defects?

Hihi, had the keys for more than a week already. Not much defects but we found the maindoor latch was not aligned to the hole in the floor. And also the household shelter had its paint chipped off.

1 big thing I did not like was that there was no magnetic thingy to hold the main door open.... sigh...

Other than the above, its FANTASTIC! wonderful views.... but expect some flying insects

hello

i've PM you dude. the floor tiles if kena you can buy from the contractor downstairs to replace. due to structural issue, need to hack all and rebuild.

hacking definitely need PE endorse.

Hi Sake Sushi

So did the PE approve your hacking for the toilet wall already? That is what I wanted to do also but worried that they wun approve since they say cannot touch the toilet wall tiles

Finally got my keys and love the view from my MBR.

What about kitchen floor tiles? Any problem to hack and relay?

When I collect keys, only signed the letter of undertaking not to remove toilet wall and tiles, no mention of kitchen wall and tiles. I assume kitchen no restriction, just need the proper approval?

Hi,

Can check, for those who have done your flooring. Is there a need to shorten the base of the door ?

No need, its just nice for the standard flooring height, which is 40mm. Any marble/homo/ceramic/timber/laminate flooring should be able to adhere to this standard flooring height.

Erm if your ID tells you that you need to shorten the base of your doors, I bet he had done the flooring wrongly liao...too high...

I see, my ID told me no need. But I want to double confirm. Thanks!
