Dear PG neighbours,
Does anyone know what kind of defects owners will just have to accept ? (For example : Uneven colour among the floor tiles). Your input is much appreciated.

Hi Limay
I think the S&P agreement allows for a certain +/-percentage allowance when the actual unit is constructed. The Quantity Surveyor will be engaged to ascertain this. Therefore, if the differences fall within the specified allowance as stipulated in the S&P agreement, the developer will not refund the owner etc.

Hi Melodie/JM,
Congrats to your key collection! Btw, we didn't even check whether our floor area is smaller than what it shld be. If it's really smaller, dunno still can complain or not cos main con has officially handed over the key to us. FYI, it's a BIG key hor. You'll know what I meant when you see it

Hi,
Anyone here getting build-in oven?
Just wondering where is the best place to fit it - can it fit under the stove? Or is there a better place?
Hi Limay,
Do you have to change the "head" for the chandelier that you bought in the US? 'cause it is 110V. I don't mean the plug, I meant the "head" where you screw in the bulb.
Thanks

hey hey hey
I just collected my keys yesterday too. no time to take pictures, but promise will do so tomorrow (sorry to disappoint you Ah Eng). Overall, we are pretty much satisfied with the quality and workmanship of the apt, albeit the minor defects like scratches on the glass areas, tiny gaps here and there, nothing major though. though i'm pretty sure that with the 18 mths notice period, we'll uncover more and more defects. my unit's pretty squeezy like one or two of the folks mentioned earlier in this thread - dont think got space for queen bed and side tables in the master. to think i even considered a king bed. and our study...dont even know how i'm gonna squeeze a sofa bed, desk and tv console into one room, besides stacking them one on top of another.
have asked a reno contractor (an "ID") to looked at the place already, and am considering false ceiling for the living and dining, if the price is right. will also be constructing a false wall for a wall mounted plasma.
actually, that reminds me of something...anyone knows abt the current Samsung promo? buy a plasma at 5499, you can pick from either a mobile phone (i think the latest model), a 15-inch LCD, a 580 ltr fridge (which was told cost $1000+)or a videocam. at Best denki, they even throw in a home theartre system. Bought mine at Courts though, and asked for a $200 voucher instead, plus the fridge.

mobe540,
Congrats... me in blk 6, still waiting for my
turn to collect keys...
You mean you get the fridge from the Samsung Plasma TV promo? can fit in your kitchen or not.
That Fridge seems a big one.
Correct me if I am wrong.
You bought the samsung TV for $5499
with $200 courts voucher and the fridge?
The Best Denki one I asked was that they can
deduct $500 from the $5499 and give you
the home theatre system but no other gifts.

Hi PG neighbours,
Just been served with the Notice. Will be collecting keys next week. Unit 14 Blk 8. Looking forward to say Hello to you guys. ;-P
Just checking whether anyone here feel that the side walls in premise is a bit too low for security comfort ? That's what two of friends who will be moving into PG including my hubby felt.

Danny, measured the space for the fridge and it defintely fits.
I went best denki, and they did tell me abt the samsung promo with fridge, etc, as well as their in-house promo which gives away a home theatre. The salesman was not willing to give me a $x discount in place of the home theatre. that's why me went to Courts. Also, they have an instore promo - i took home a blender. you can get a digital safe if you wish.
pls note that anywhere you go, Samsung's offer of a fridge, etc will stand.

Hi All,
So many updates within 1 day, dunno which one to reply first. Anyway, Vera is right, my ID came down today and told me the 3700mm includes the thickness of the wall, i so blur.
Wah, super tired, cos me and hubby standing and walking aroung the house the whole day, sprawl on the floor to check defects, backache now. For those collecting keys, must bring stool or chair hor. Lucky my hubby tall enough, can switch on the button on the air con to test, if not must stand on chair liao. Today, we found more defects, some of our marble flooring tile edges are slightly lighter in colour than the tile causing the tiles to look outlined. There are some patched holes in the bedroom parquet. So we submitted another defects list. Anyway, the contractor said they'll see what they can do.
1 more thing, the lift is too small to bring in BIG piece of mirror, our ID said can most accomodate 2m X 1.68m mirror.
Oh yah, Fanta, key "pouch" super BIG ah, our jaws dropped when we saw it.
I think the tennis court got super defect, like cracks, so still not opened.
Anyway, will update more again tomorrow. Now must go rub my back.

Hi PGer,
1 major defect is the lighting point at the master bedroom which will be block when you open the cupboard top and you can't install any lighting. I believe quite alot of unit is affected, base on the floor plan. You might need to check if your unit is affected.

Hi all,
Just a question for those who have already have their units defects rectified by the developer....
I've have take possession of my unit and the contractor has noted down the defects when he and I did a visual inspection....how long does it take for the workers to come and rectify the faults as listed on the sheet....and also will the developer inform us when the defects in our unit has been rectified.....as for any subsequent defects noted, how long will they take to rectify it again?
Many thanks for your replies.

Hi JM,
Besides the big key pouch which hold so many keys, I'm referring to the actual key which all will receive once the main-con hand over the unit after changing the common lock. It's one of the biggest keys I ever seen leh.
Hi Betty,
We have to get permit & pay $200 deposit to the mgmt for moving in the bulky items. Apart fm this, need to pay deposit for reno ($600) & refuse disposal fee (after reno, ard $150).

Hey Samily - hubby says should not be a problem to modify the bulbs.
Main issue now is where to fit the other chandelier, since Felicia mentioned that one light point is near the cupboards! How silly...(Our floor plan indicates so too) - if we can't move the point, would have to put the chandelier in the bathroom!

Betty,
Deposits are refundable provided there's no damage to common property. Even booking of BBQ pit need to pay $100 deposit besides the booking fee
Limay,
I also feel that 1 lighting point at the centre shld be sufficient, dunno why they give us 2 & 1 so near the wardrobe. My ID will have to conceal 1 of them & install anor lighting point at the entrance of MBR which is quite dim.

Fanta - if some common area (like the lift landing) is damaged - how would they determine which unit is responsible? U said the deposit for moving bulky items is $200, but what if the next door neighbour's movers chipped off the paint at the corridor or something? How do we proof that its not us? Or would all the units shifting in on that floor then have the deposit forfeited?
How about the deposit for reno?
wow...$100 deposit to book the BBQ pit? Can buy the BBQ pit liao!

Ya, Limay has the point.I checked with my friend who stays in condo told me tt the security guard will check. As for the BBQ pit, a deposit is required but no fee charge. If u dirty the place, they will deduct some $$ fm yr deposit. Dont know whether PG works this way or not.
Yah. if any of u guys who have collected the keys have pix & the paper on the lighting/power points, can u load up for us (poor souls from block 2 & 6) to have a look? Pls also specify the unit size & type...
Then at least we can get a better idea of the layout etc and plan ahead. Thanks a gazillion!

wow - yah, $10 sounds expensive...i have my own portable BBQ pit, can i bring and just BBQ by the pool? haha...
Our cost price is lower, but they are sure making up in terms of maintenence fees & stuff like the BBQ fees...dont tell me we have to pay for tennis court bookings too?
