i believe this works the same for all local council, u need to engage with their panel architect for faster and hassle free approval..

@spreeeee,

Thanks for the reply. I just consulted a panel for mdks and he quoted me rm2500. Mentioned there might be a contra for what I already paid and just top up.

Just another question. I saw someone mentioned in early of the thread the height for the extension can only reach 10'? My original floor ceiling bind is at 13' and if I was to do flat surface, it will be around 12+'. Would I get penalised or any action should I do to get it approved? Thanks

i think u still can nego further on the price quoted. get few more panel architect to quote with best price (i was able to get good price at rm1900)

about the height, u can confirm with the architect u engaged with. but should not be an issue, i guess.

Hi, I am looking for someone to draw the architectural drawing and engineering plan for the house renovation in Klang for submission to Klang Town Council. Any good recommendation?

For architect fees i spend around 12k.. for house renovation is about 300k..

No they dont provide FOC, but they have panel vendors that you must use at least once to claim back your deposit. Must remember to keep the receipt for the claim later on.

whose receipt? the panel vendor? or u mean the MPS deposit receipt? i have deposit of rm500 with my local council - MPS.

I use MPS also. My house in Rawang. Both receipts, for sure you need the deposit receipt. But more importantly you need to keep your first tong receipt from panel vendor. When you apply your permit to reno, MPS give you some documents, read the red letter, yes its red in color, so you can't miss it. In there, they list down 3 or 4 panel vendor for the ro ro tongs, and also they state clearly you need to show receipt, proof that you at least use them once.

problem is, i don't have the red letter/paper showing tong roro vendor.. i actually have 2 pcs of this red paper, printed on 3 pages but one of the page is empty, i guess might be this page left out during they photocopy..

mind sharing here?

Bro pm me your mobile number. I whatsapp send you easier. Lazy upload and link.

thanks!

and for reference, i uploaded here:

Can I do extension if I live at ground unit of an apartment? I have 6-8 feet of space between my front door and the parking lot. I was thinking about adding a front porch. Is this legally allowed? Is there a basic building setback for apartment? tq

There are several units like mine had done extension without any issue from the management for years. I'm more concern with the local council.

Well, since several units had survived for years without issue with the local council so I guess they really did not come by that often.

I guess no need to apply for approval then since this type of reno for apartment is not permitted.

Thank you sifu
