After hacking, I am thinking to put in a termite control system.
Is there any suggestions?

you got it right. Since you have removed all the flooring, better to put in termite treatment. For my house reno, I got the termite control people to drill and pump in the anti-termite stuff.
But you need to careful of the underground services before they start drilling...

Anti-termite treatment by drilling is much cheaper then having to use the other methods. Cost me abt RM1.2k. It depend on your ground floor built up area.
A peace of mind

Is this chemical deal with the ground only? How about the roof and the rest of the place? The termite can infect from your neighbour through the roof. That is 1 of my friend house kena.

When your roof is burning hot, the chemical will evaporate and release slowly out from the wood. Will the plaster ceiling absorb it and release down to the room? Or it become powder form stick to the wood. But slowly drop down to the ceiling.

If your stair Modify to direct down, will it save more space and look nicer?

Applying the permit got cheap and expensive? Or standard pricing?

Wah, like this, if don't no, anyhow the agent can say rm4k or rm10k.

Do they have warranty? Last time my home using rentokil termite spray. Have 10yrs warranty with cert. If between 10yrs got termite, can claim them.

They have Hitachi energy saving bulb? I m looking for this bulb. Quite difficult to find.

New taman, new house? Why the developer no hire security guard?

Most of this case happen in new taman. Which still not much ppl stay and easy target.

Streaming HD movie file? Specially bluray file. If you stream from your server somewhere to your media in the hall, I guess Cat6 is require.

Unifi also not fast enough to stream bluray.

I mean stream from your PC or NAS in your room to your big TV in the hall. That probaly require CAT6 cable.

I have some bluray file in my NAS. But my player can't play it. So I can't confirm it. But my stream equipment is just cat5 and N. Thaught cat6 should be ok.

Anyway I did try some movie file similiar to bluray which is 25-45gb also. Stream ok, but my player running at max with some jerk. Old player.

Yup. The old sigma chipset in the player can't handle it. Hope it spoll fast and can get a better 1. He...

So that is possible to stream a bluray/hd file from NAS/pc if some upgrade done.

Plaster ceiling drop down. how many inch woofer using?

We have to beware of you liau. mostly ppl here don't show where they stay. Just show the detail and overall renovation and design. And this renovation and design have hundred thousand of similar in Malaysia.

People here might use it to copy only. No others bad thinking hopefully. Sharing is caring.

It is worth if the location, environment stay and price + Reno is not big different.

New house does not guarantee you will have a good stay. While 2nd house will have a better guarantee good stay.

New house just give you the feeling of " New " sometime I feel it tricky.

If your new house facing an empty land or no house, you don't no what will the developer going to do with it. You may facing a apartment, flyover or a dumping ground.

New house can't see the defect which need time to surface.

New taman maybe longtime to get facility and probably don't have at all. The famous is fix phone line which you need for Internet.

In my taman, there is a case where the ground land move and cause few house structure defect. One house drag another house down cause it is double storey link house. It take 7-8yrs to happen. Take fews yrs to sue the developer. Only now the developer start to repair.

Better get authority approval and neighbor before you do this. My taman another area, the owner of the corner lot tear down the whole house and want to built again. Kena sue by the neighbour cause it effect their house structure. Guess 2yrs already and the land still empty. No house and can't built either. The neighbour sell the house too.

My new house developer have this kind of good service where they will call you ask how is your house condition and any problem or not. That time I feel strange cause never hear any this kind of service before. And they have 1year temporary guard at the main entrance road once the developer finish that housing area.

Later I found out that, the developer is applying for ISOXXXX. Which require some standard procedure.

That 1 Talam is legend bad developer. Try go in the bukit jalil side house and see. Even the semi banglo quality like shit.
