Hi all, I have just placed a booking in Spira and I have requested the vendor to rectify some major defects before the SPA is signed. I noticed that some of the houses are having cracks on the pillar at the car porch area, some having big crack and some having small crack, may I know is this a sign of sinking? Anything else should I take note before I sign the SPA? This is my first time buying a sub sale property for own stay, hope you all could advise and help. Thanks

Vendor?

Do you have photo? Depend where and how the crack take place? Some cracks are a result of poor workmanship or poor weather, some could be cause by soil settlement, etc.

Ask the existing house owner to get NAza to repair all these before handling over to you.

first i susgest u to identify the pillar cracks are structural cracks or plaster cracks

if not mistaken, the slab soffit, beam, column & wall are skim coat furnished for Spira; is there any forummer can confirm this?

Hi Crystal, welcome to our neighborhood.

You may get some tips from this link to know what/how to check.

This is the crack on the unit that i booked, considered the smallest cracks among other houses that we viewed. The unit i booked is having leaking problem as well, but it can be rectified so i'm not so concerned about it..

hi all,

just to add to my wife's comments:
the house is up for about a year at least already..soil settlement issue should be vague and clearer by now..if im not wrong..kindly advice..anybody having issues of the porch area sinking?i have checked with a neighbor regarding the crack and they said that it hasnt gotten any worse..

Seems that delay is caused by your lawyer. My lawyer is superb fast.

In my case, the previous owner (is actually the developer) refused to pay the 5% tax and ask his bank to loan it.
So, his bank has not released the money to my bank.

I have checked with my banker last night, last week my bank have issued the letter to him. Should be settled by this week.
Luckily, I no need to start paying the installment for the house loan yet.

I think I have a problem uploading the photo, will try to upload later tonight.

Reduce the photo size 1st

during my visit to Spira's Show Unit back to mid 2010, i did notice many houses having leaking problem with rain water seep through windows

this leaking problem been there for more than a year plus, but yet rectified by the previous owner; so don't expect this can be easily resolved

Hi Crystal,

Welcome to the Spira Neighbourhoop!

Which unit u have bought? What is the price? Can share with us or PM me. Just curious how the price going. I'm one of the Spira owner too.

i believe they set the pressure higher for new phase usage... thus, i only open the valve half just to prevent sudden pressure from the main source....
Jonas how's ur kitchen cabinet? kena or not?

Luckily my cabinet not kena cos the lower part is made by acrylic and concrete. they had removed the tiles and concrete and will tiles back again this weekend.
I think i have to turn the valve half also once they finish the tiles work. Thanks for advise

Any update regarding Unifi?? Saw TM contractor working with cable near 2nd roundbout last 3 days.

Tried called Naza rep, all busy with Viola handing over key

Hi, I am viola owner and newbie here. Last Sunday I went to check my house and there was a heavy downpour. It was found that there is a design problem for gap between the car porches of me and my neighbor’s house. My main door that located directly below the gaps received direct water splashing during heavy downpour. Rain water was flown into the foyer. Just wish to check if anybody facing the same problem?

It might be a problem for the owners as filling the gaps will need to be done by both neighboring owner. It will look awkward if each one did their own awning or other kind of solution. Think this should be addressed to the developer and they should take action to fill up the gap. Else they will need to replace the main door throughout the whole DLP for every owner.
