I would like to do some renovation inside my house like to lay floor tile at car porch, change existing parguet to tile (including hacking), to do plaster ceiling, wiring and counter top without any extension.

So, do I need to get approval from MPSA?

If I did not apply for permit and neighbour complain to MPSA, MPSA can summon me or not?

Awaiting for you all advise.

Thank you.

i don't think so lor...

Better check. You can sleep easy.
But from my experience, in MPSJ, no external structure change, no need.

If carrying out renovation work within your house and does not involve any extension of the building, then don't need the authority approval. If you happen to live in a G&G, then you may need to inform the management.
Having said that, if you work is dusty, as a good neighbour, you should reduce the dust by having a temporary protection using those plastic sheets.

Anything with major noise, you risk getting summon. And more obvious when you do it outdoor. Especially when Neighbor complain.

my suggestion:-

1- that is just minor renovate and just involving your internal part so dont need approval from MP
2-better u meet your nearest neighbour..the left one, the right one, infront and backyard..just inform that u are
about to do minor renovate...so little bit noise will araise...for the sake of semangat muhibah kejiranan...
3-but if u want feel secure more, visit MP and seek for their advice..IF IT REALLY need license, probably will be around RM300 (plus deposit) and the
deposit will refund once the reno works done..


all the best!

may sure your sand or brick any renovation item is inside the house not at outside...

Thanks for you all advise.

I've been MBSA this morning. According to MBSA officer, I don't need to apply permit to do the renovation because I didn't do any extension.

But, I need to avoid get complain from neighbour cause by sound pollution.

Besides, working hour must be within 8am to 6pm from Monday to Friday.

Are you sure about no working allowed on Saturdays? That means only working 5 days a week. Will take long time to finish the reno work

My work permit allow Sat except Sun and public holiday.

Yes. According to the officer.
