Mine should be under MBPJ...what do you mean specific design? Thought whole idea is that we are renovating so can come up with our own design?

Sorry~ Newb here. First time renovating 😅

I plan to ask imam to quote once I get the keys. Sourcing around for other contractors too. How many did you speak to before you decided on imam?

I've recently engaged Imam as well. However Imam is not a CIDB certified contractor. In order for you to obtain the CCC aka Certificate of Fitness, your contractor needs to be registered with CIDB.

Hi Reubs, how is Imam's work? Price point? Attitude?
I know hard to achieve cheap / good / fast so I'm hoping for cheap and good. Can accept slow.

Would you recommend him?

Hi mrstohchu,

I've only been in contact with him. He's came over to my place once for a site visit. Friendly chap, reasonable as well in terms of pricing.

However as I've mentioned, I did not proceed with him because he isn't registered under CIDB. So there's no way the council will issue the CCC upon completion of my renovation.

Btw, anyone knows why there is that knob above the toilet???

Kinda weird to have something sticking out like that. What do you guys normally do to resolve this 'ugly look' issue?

I believe that's the water supply tap to your faucet / sink / shower.


You can always change the knob to something that suits your taste.

How about no knob  tongue.gif

Wondering why didn't they build it such that it is hidden under the sink. So meaning if i want to address the issue, i got to hack the wall, re-do the piping if i want to shift the supply tab to under the sink/cabinet to hide it?

Yes, you'd need to hack the wall depending on the position of the piping in the wall. The shutoff valve can be positioned below.

Normally CF will issue first only then we can collect the key from developer. At that time you collecting the key, you will also collecting the CF, this is happen to me.

But if you're going to be doing renovation works, once it's completed you would need the CCC / CF which your architect or draftsman will issue.
