mine is EA and i believe most of us are as well.

for me no choice mah. the only ones available at this peak period ;)

hi kayser,

i mean, are they friendly? helpful? ;)

Because rectification go through them, and forumers did advised before, if the TO is good, it does help alot.

I guess our TO would be pretty much the same person, so wonder how's your experience with them?

:help:

Me abit blur now.. is glass backsplash and glass backing for the kitchen the same?

Basically I'm refering to the frosted glass kind against the wall btw the worktop and the cabinet, giving the very modern look..

Could this coz more than $1k? Thot it is quite cheap...

Ya, got a quote which is abt $1.4k wor... i thot it is going to be very cheap,like few hundred at most.. then i read smwhere dat some ppl confuse backsplash and backing.. so dunno if I told the ID the right thing.. hahha..

I remember 1 ID said, if not too big, then can just give it for free, those frosted glass kind.. so i thot must be cheap..

Spend the whole of sat cleaning up my new place and inspection and came up with a whopping list of defects. Total 17 and when i submitted to HDB branch at Sembawang this morning, the lady was like jaw dropping. hahaha ... Hopefully you guys when u get your keys, you won't have so much defects to report.

whats this backsplash thing? anyone have pic to share or cn explain wad it is?

Actually I'm not sure if backsplash is the word for it coz i read smwhere dat it may mean different things. But the thing we r refering to is the piece of backing btw the worktop and the top cabinet. Usually either in s/steel or glass.. some ppl just put it near the cooker, whereas some the whole stretch of the kitchen cabinet.

I went to check it out on Sat oso.. i found afew defects but we haven't submit coz not sure how to check the tiles.

Ours defects dat we found, roughly, if i remember correctly :

- The locks, not sure what they r called. The one dat we push up or down to lock one side of the door or window. Afew of them, we can't push completely.

- Study room door magnetic not aligned, so it doesn't stick well when we close

- MBR toilet vanity top got some stains dat looks like paint surrounding the curve of the sink (do u have this problem?)

- All room doors, peeling slightly at the bottom

- Some room windows, the rubber came off

- Service balcony door can't lock

That's all I remember for now. Yrs similar?

We haven't check tiles. Did u check? How to know if tiles r hollow. My fren said use coin but dun hear any difference leh.. hahaha..

oh yah, the metal gate latch got similar problem also. push down but the latch too short and can't even lock into the floor tile hole. other problems like deep scratches and patch marks on vanity top, leaking WC, poo-stained WC, balcony door unable to slide open fully, rusty window hinges, black-stained floor tiles, rusty magnet door catch at common toilet, cracks on walls, etc .....

i would say it's a premium flat with sub-standard quality! :yamseng:

To check floor tiles, i use a pole to knock lor ... and hear for any hollow sound. so far all ok for mine
