[h=1]What Bugs Me [/h] Posted on 30 Nov 2011 Renovation defects found in newly-built Punggol premium flats Residents were met with design faults and shoddy renovation works inside their newly-constructed flats in Punggol even though they paid a premium for it. According to STOMPer Punggol Arcadia, complaints to the Building Services Centre (BSC) were met with a foul attitude. The defects were varied -- ranging from stones inside the taps preventing water flow to 'blisters' on the finishes of sinks and also poor finishes on the parquet floooring. The STOMPer wrote: “The chief executive of HDB was quoted in a recent article, saying that residents could use good interior design and arrange their furniture to create better storage options that will give that feeling of space. “However, a lot of recently-completed BTO flats in Punggol have numerous design faults and very poor finishing even though residents were charged with high premiums. “The many defects, coupled with the bad service attitude of the staffs from the Building Services Centre, is making everyone feel dejected when we were initially looking forward to the keys collection “I hope this will get the attention of the relevant authority for their assistance in these issues.” Click on thumbnails for larger image |
