sorry tumpang topic..

i installed polycarbonate skylight at my back yard, but result is not as expected. My back yard is 5 feet and the skylight is only 6 feet.. thus rain water comes in easily..

are there any solution for this? adding something like curtain? or I have to cover my grill with some plastic/glass? icon_question.gif

I just choose this type polycarbonate. Middle row from left 2nd grey color.

my contractor advise, don't choose light color. Reason - "bird shit" will turn from beautiful to ugly. unless you so hard working to climb up every day and wash. tongue.gif

that one future only think. Who's know?
by that time, all bird shit already full on top to add another layer.
I pity those that do glass. Look elegant and nice. But with bird shit...ewww.... (more cleaning)

You probably demolish and rebuild a new one. tongue.gifc

i just get this info from MPK (Klang). They told me, my house cannot do awning. Car porch almost reached to limit that allowed. If do, only can do 2f. So got extra 8f (that is limit). So it is pointless. If do, then it is consider illegal and can sue us.
Therefore , i advise that anyone want to do renovation , please check with your local Majlis Bandaran. This is what i have been told:
1. Yard - is empty by design. So you add grill, cement, skylight is also need permit. (No need if the kitchen door which by design. You can add grill only.
2. Car porch awning - need permit
3. Reallocate dustbin - need permit
I was shocked when i heard about it.

They will give you advise what need permit or need. They will check your floor plan and already visited the site. So i cannot say anything as he draw my whole house floor plan without i show them. Just tell them which area.

Well, now it look like i need to apply permit for my yard conversion.

This is the feedback that most people told me. Curve is better than flat coz reflect more heat. That's why most house in malaysia roof is not flat.
Not sure true or not?

Aiyo, why you go and ask??? Now they know you have been told and cannot do already! Over time just do it quietly, they dont come and kacau. If they want to sue there are so many to sue and make them not popular and if the news go out almost all house owners all over the country have to be sued.

Usually worst case you just pay a small fine and they will not ask you to tear it down.

well, it is better go and follow rules. (my style). My brother house(last 10 years, he did renovation and did not apply permit. Got fines RM500 (10 years ago fines) and need to go through a lot of process.

So better don't mess up. Anyway, it is up to individual preferences.

Well, i've ask my neighbour permission as well. I have managed to talk to my neighbour last sunday. Told them my plan, he is ok and signed the permission for mpk submission.

So at least now i'm know they are ok on my renovation plan. Dont want them to get angry as well

Sorry, probably i too followed according to the book. tongue.gif
