For a start the parquet flooring near the master bedroom window are warping and with rough edges and stains (could be water, not sure). There is a wide gap, about 1.5 cm, between the edges of the bathtub and the tiles. Flooring have scratches and stains almost 60% of the total area. I suspect outsiders, agents, etc are allowed in. Walls near the stairs are wavy with some having water marks. At one corner upstairs you can see very obvious water marks from the ceiling to the floor. Cracks on the common wall with my neighbour. The drains within my house and outside are clogged with sand/debris/cement.. I am now in a dilemma whether to renovate voiding the defects liability of MS or wait till defects are properly rectified.

I wouldnt know if my unit is the only one. Perhaps all owners in LYN compare notes?

Hi Greenstuff.. I thought of renovating now to move in time for the CNY..looks like it is a good idea to hang on till all the defects are rectified. I visited my unit a few times somewhere late July to early Aug this year ( before VP notification where only authorised ppl are allowed) and I have seen agents + clients in a few houses with their shoes on. Just imagine shoes + sand + dust + tile+ parquet flooring, resultant?? I told one of agents off and was rudely ignored by him. I did complain to MS people in the sales gallery office but I think no action has been taken because I still see the same thing happening on my subsequent visit.
I am comparing the SOP and security in MS with Kinrara (I&P) Qaseh which I have also bought (subsale). In Kinara no one is allowed in until VP. My agent has some "special arrangement" with the site supervisor to allow us in and even then this supervisor stayed with us to ensure we, amongst other things, dont have our shoes on in the house.
My cousin's unit in Evergreen has scratches on the tiles and worst on the parquet. Hopefully yours is spared.

Don't know about other projects but the Qaseh Kinrara unit that I bought has 0 defect. I don't mind the minor defects like broken tiles or scratches. It is the water marks that I am worried. The water from the pipes are not connected yet so these are rain water and rain water leaking and seeping through crevices and cracks is one BIG Headache and pain in the ***. I just hope and pray those defects in my unit is minor and can be rectified.

hi kipkip,

may i ask what type you bought subsale for kinrara qaseh and how much? qaseh is not vp yet, so you can't be sure it is 0 defect.

thanks.

Hi yunalesca ....24 x 80 at RM1.23m. I am quite confident because have check out my unit a few times the last being 5 days. You can visit your unit there if you have the know how and know who.

The water pressure in my unit was really pathetic. Almost like trickling. Was told by the Indon guy doing the defects rectification, that the pressure pump is ONLY for the showers and not connected to the rest and to have the pressure pump connected to the rest of the taps will cost about RM400. Anyone can confirm this?

Hi all, just joined this thread. Yes Kipkip, its true. That's what the Indon guy told me also. But he fell short of telling me the cost for him to do it. I thought this is not what the developer has promised to us which is CENTRALIZED water pump system in the brochuce, and not "Centralized water pump to all showers" which means differently.  Your unit is at Evergreen also?

Yes Iveco, my unit is evergreen 2SSD. I went to check on the defect rectification works today and was really pissed off with MS. I had earlier complained the water marks on the walls around the glass panels above the stairways. Anyone could guess that this is caused by water leakage. What MS did was just repainted the affected walls without checking the cause!!! And what really epitomized their insincerity is that they didnt bother to scrap the bloated area and peeled paint before repainting. Want to tipu, tipu smartly la!

Yes, water leakage is a big issue. Are you planning to move to GR since you also own a house in Kinrara? Or is it for investment only?
*
Have not decided which one to move in. Looking at the existing problem with MS, Qaseh(kinrara) would be a better choice. BTW Qaseh almost 0 defect if not for the chipped tile. I&P need not boast of any COnquas/ISO certification. MS? What is the purpose of highlighting these certs and write up in their Mcare brochure when they cant fulfill.

Mind to ask, how much did u spend for the whole house renovation?

Im still headache choosing the right ID as in matching my budget  rclxub.gif

Sorry for late response. Busy with my renovations and shifting in today. Shifting is the easiest part. ...just pay and the movers will do everything for you including packing my undies (lol).
I have spent about 70k and still counting. If you have time get all the contractors yourself. If you have budget get ID to do it. From experience & own stay I prefer the former bcoz you can ensure things are correctly done. I saved about 15k this time. Will post photos and my cost later when I m all settled down.

Nope...clubhouse/retail not my priority. but discovered good food around Dengkil/EquinePark/Kajang area.
member of a golf club which we go every weekend so doesn't matter clubhouse ready or not.
Love the location and tranquility/fresh air. 20 mins to my office in Bkt Jalil and 35 mins to my son's school. My former place in Bandar Puteri took me 35 mins to BJ and 50 mins to my son's school albeit nearer.
The one thing I dislike about BandarPuteri is the terrible and haphazard traffic condition as soon as you leave the house.

they calculate based on trip or distance? they packed all the things for you?

based on trip, distance, bulky/heavy stuff, condo to condo, condo to landed vice versa, etc, etc.

Mine was based on landed to landed, less than 6 bulky/heavy items, they packed everything....well almost, 2 trips on a 5 tonnes lorry and a family of 3.

...and I tip them RM50.00
