Just have my free time and finally I sit down to write this thread to share out my new house journey. Seriously, I am glad that lowyat members over here all are willing to share. You all really shared a lot of info about house reno thing, where to buy cheap staff, what to do and etc...

Special thanks to aaronpang for the Home Defect Rectification Post! it really help a lot especially for newbie like me Really learnt a lot over there. Thanks to bro weikee and zheilwane who shared a lot of info over this forum too!

It is a big time for me during the defect rectification, especially on the hollow tiles checking, I will op for checking it by using coin as the hollow tiles will be very significant if you know it by using coin/hard object. Other than that, before getting key, should always go to have a look especially during raining as that is the best way to detect roof leakage.

Here are some rectified defects:

















Will update more after this, Happy CNY to all!

from which developer is this house?

'top' as in their price... so much more expensive than others and i do not think their workmanship is better...

Good sharing, will keep that in mind next time before i get the key.

Did the developer say anything about those defect?

leeyung do you know if wires is not color coded is defect, as in using 3 same color wires. thanks

where is ur house leeyung? im oso buying a house @ melaka. true, teobros is the most expensive developer @ melaka

Wow, you're a detailed person indeed! I had my major defects rectified, and couldn't notice the minor defects until the wet works started.

Well done!

Sometime too detail make you cannot sleep. I learn during renovation, perfection is an expensive things.

teobros. yea. the workmanship getting lousier. wondering because of they has lots of projects to do...so cincai do.. 
mine too...submitted the complaint letter before cny. dont know if they already rectified or not as i also dont chase them. 

where is your location ?? i see teobros nowadays punya design is all the same for few location. hahaha..
i am now also planning for renovation....but not extensive one la. interior structure will remain the same.  just still figuring out how to do for my backyard as i have 15'' empty "land" at the back..want to extend full....no money pulak 

Near bukit katil Yeah, I heard TeoBros is good but now can felt the bad, however, all depends on luck la, according to the developer fella, my row the subcon is malay and the workmanship not so good. However, I compared my house with other developer one (like metacorp) I can see the differences, at least Teobros one they do not have a silly defect like your house out of shape, the wall is not perpendicular, the gaps between tiles more than 3mm etc, but at least teobros giving out good things like the tiles, and also the gate is much better than other developer, so overall considered ok, but the workmanship still sux LoL they are top among sux perhaps.

where is ur location hellokitty82? I also thinking to do extension and end up give up because of budget issue and also land structure, I prefer to have some land behind my house

mine at taman merbok. hehe.. now i see teladan setia one also not bad and also giving good quality material, my fren bought a house from teladan setia, location cheng setia. she only do simple renovation and maintain most of the thing. even the room door is better than teobros. 
i have 15'' empty "land" at the back. it is too big for me. thought of extend a bit for wet kitchen maybe. as the kitchen inside the house not that big. 

so you have started planning your renovation, looking for suppliers, etc??? after i read people here giving comments, only I know planning renovation also needs so much knowledge and time.  maybe will just look for one person to handle the whole process, so anything go wrong...can held him responsible 

so we are considering as "neighbor" also ma, same area haha, yours is the one 2 storey then at the back kitchen, got a slot one if view from outside? cheng and krubong area are nono for me due to high air pollution issue and also very far Actually my reno about 90% finish, pending KC now, now baru got free time to post, so I slowly post one by one, My given kitchen also quite small but enough for me ATM, extension maybe for future ba, not necessary at this moment. I dont give one person to handle all as the parang is ready to samurai (based on my fren's previous reno) so I find all separated one
