Today's the day for defects check for our home. We were actually supposed to begin the defects check after getting our keys about few months back but had been delaying it till now.
Armed with the most important tools, 2 SCREW DRIVERS!
You guessed it right, for the tapping of tiles to check for poor workmanship. Had a quick breakfast near our home before the tapping business and headed upstairs.
The most obvious defect before we even stepped inside our home was the wooden main door. Here! Take a look...
The crack is so bad that it appeared behind the door. Totally FAIL! MUST ask HDB to change the whole door man.
Next area we checked were the windows and hinges. A thorough check showed mouldy hinges, missing screws and loose window handles due to spoilt screw threads. Left out pictures for this area. We proceeded to check the bathrooms and their accessories. Most of the metal (Polished aluminum I believe) were mouldy and needed to be polished. Even the covers for the screws holding up the mirrors are mouldy, totally eye-sores to me.
Was out for about 1 and 1/2 hours for dinner and the time is now 9.04pm.
Back to where I left out earlier...
After checking the bathrooms, we proceeded with checks of the tiles and parquet flooring. Out came our handy SCREW DRIVERS and tapping we went.
A tap tap here, a tap tap there, here tap there tap, everywhere... Oops sorry, got carried away somehow. Anyway, we plastered all tiles and parquet flooring which "sounded suspicious". Below are some pics of these "precious finds"...
Other defects include an indent in the wall of the master bedroom, don't think I will put up the pic since it is not so obvious.
Basically, we finished around 12 plus in the noon and went for lunch after the defects check. Will be posting the pics of our home before any renovation. Here goes...
