Does anyone know if a 1.5 ft platform by the window is allowed by HDB? All the IDs that I approached told me that it's not approved, but this ID told me that it's ok... Dunno who to believe.....

May i know who is ur ID?

Just PMed you my ID...

you sure you need 22x downlights?

oil is rising like crazy - electricity will follow.

can PM your ID contact too . tks

Hi Apprye,

With regards to your question on raised platform, not sure if this is applicable here, but you may wanna take a look at

http://www.hdb.gov.sg/fi10/fi10205p.nsf/WP...ed?OpenDocument

Under their examples, one of them says,

"Raising of floor level exceeding the allowable thickness of 50mm (inclusive of floor tiles) using concrete"

Or go thru' this?

http://www.hdb.gov.sg/fi10/fi10205p.nsf/WP...Menu=Guidebooks

Btw, why do you need such a high 1.5ft platform (~45cm) by the window? Are you using it as your bed frame or it's going to be a bench with cushions?

I'm sure you would have gotten quite a number of quotations right? So, is this the cheapest?

Btw, can you PM me who is the contractor that provides you with this quotation?

Regards.

IF ur budget is only $12K, why r u still doing LBox? just doing the kitchen cabinets and masterroom wardrobe and bomb shelter + 2vanity cabinets for ur toilets will be ard $12K liao. provided u do the painting of the hse by urself. if u wan everything listed in ur quote it can never be $12K.

frm wat i see, they are like giving u many items FOC, it looks quite worth the price.

but i feel tere are many tings u can cut down on, like the L box and shoe rack thing, but it's up to individual needs la.
