Defect Checklist

[evisu 0]

Haloz,

I need some suggestion...I've not decided on my ID thus cant bring any professional up to help me with the defect list. As this is my first house, i've totally no clue what i should look out for.

Can someone share their defect list with me? I need to report by 6 Nov...

Advance thanks...

welcome to renotalk and compassvale

there are a number of things that should be checked

1. all wall and floor tiles for cracks, hollowness or other defects (anything that you feel is unacceptable)

2. all taps and fixtures for signs of rust, corrosion

3. all walls for cracks, holes and uneven-ness

4. all switches for ease of switching on

5. all electrical sockets for electricity supply - bring a small portable electrical item to test

6. all doors can be opened, closed and locked with ease, and no sign of rust/corrosion on the knobs

that's all i can think of right now

others will definitely add on to the list

btw, which cluster did you book?

is it the compassvale green cluster?

Hi.. me living at compassvale road EA.. we have the below defects

i) tiles uneven and stained at the toilet (they did not do much abt it)

ii) toilet bowl was not sit properly on the floor (they redo the sitting)

iii) common toilet door cannot close properly and with stain (they change the whole door for us)

iv) balcony sliding door difficult to slide (they change the roller)

v) stain and dirty scv/power/tel point (they change for us)

vi) main door knob got problem (they change the door knob)

vii) windows diff to open

Just to add on..

1) Pour water in the toilet to make sure the water flow to the pipe hole smoothly.

2) Pour water into the water pipe hole to make sure the pipe hole are not stuck

3) we even knock the toilet tiles one by one to make sure no hollow tiles.

4) Open all the windows and door to make sure can open and close easily

5) test all the keys provided to make sure can use

this is all i can remember as tat was ard 1 yr back...

hi evisu,

great to see another compassvale neighbour.

Think get your family to go round the rooms with you. Parents may be more observant than us, who may be a little slipshot or chin chye....

then just bring a digicam to take some pics to feedback to your HDB technical officer in charge of your block.

Wow..thanks for the quick response..

All of e defect list are excellent and i've a pretty good idea how to check the defect list.

Applefreak- Erh, wat do u mean by which cluster? I've no clue.. mine is @ 299B ..urs?

Josfoo, Compassvale- Do ur develop the defect pictures to show e technical officer OR i can juz show him my camera pics?

i still feel that 1 week deadline is kinda of rush for everything..

you should put aside three months for the rectification process

mine took longer and they still 'owe' me two toilets i.e. the defects in the toilets are still outstanding
