a noob question:

1)can we engage an ID if their company is not named under the HDB web of the Listing of Registered Renovation Contractors?

2) is the haulage fee fixed for all blk 79?

hi tension_z..for ur own safety, it's best to engage an ID or contractor who's licensed. and i believe the haulage fee is fixed for 4rm @ $900...if u laminate/parquet ur rooms, it will be abt $700..unless ur ID absorbs partial of the haulage cost, like Alister's..then it'll be cheaper.

fixed by town council..the contact persons list is pasted at Blk C lift lobby. sand price goes up, consumers blood pressure also go up.

it shld be stated in ur quotation, otherwise u pay to the haulage ppl separately cos the $$ doesn't go to ur ID. =)

SO, for Main Door, confirm no stopper, so it is not a defect.

Hahaha.. sekali, I sua ku, I report as a defect when it does not come with it.

how come for haulage fees...some cost $450, some $700, some $800, some $900 some up to $1100?

is it depending on the wetworks or hacking you do?

do we do to the main contractor by HDB for the haulage fee?

For me, only found one socket faceplate loose at kitchen and also the plastic cover cannot open fully. Anything else I should also take note ? I need to submit the defects to HDB tomorrow.

My ID told me he will touch up for me if there is minor problem during the renovation found later.

I saw a crack on the wall at almond_dust mbr wall and also the door to the storeroom couldn't close properly due to the rubber protection (or is it someone else ? can't really recall liao !! ).

My storeroom locks 45 deg up @ 2 o'clock so I think it's the design of the rods. If it locks at 12 o'clock, then the rods needs to be very long. Anyone thinks it's diff pls let me know.

Hi all,

Luckily for me, not much defect. If the door can totally lock, the handle should tilt to 12o'clock, normal when close should be 9o'clock.

Hi all,

Just wana check with all of you, do your MBR toilet have an additional light socket point around the basin area?

My contractor charge me for the installation of extra electric pt at the MBR toilet for light aove my mirror but i notice after installation the electric pt looks old and may have been install by HDB.

Hmm.. :jawdrop:
