I could email you the pdf. PM me your email address.

Anyone aware if we could perform renovation (i.e. kitchen extension)? MPK says 5 years they wont approve any renovation request. However such T&C is not stated anywhere in our S&P nor any signed agreement so far.

I don't know how to PM. You have submit your renovation drawing to MPK ? They said won't approve it ? Why ? During purchase, the sales person & brochure did mention can do renovation.
*
I'll try to attach the file here (did not realised I was able to attach a pdf). Called MPK @ 03-33757806 and spoke to Mr. Hafiz who is a chief architect. You can call and reconfirm. True, even the manual states that renovation is possible (subject to MPK approval tho).

Thank you so much ! The manual have Guideline of renovation and application of standard plan plus did mention extension/renovation of lower floor or lower and upper floor fee that mean sure can do extension. If just do back kitchen extension should be no problem. If extension too much maybe hard to get MPK approval. etc, master bedroom extension till end of car porch, build 3rd floor ...

You're welcome. Let's hope so. As it is now, cooking probably have to be done in the utility room tongue.gif

What you ask the MPK chef architect and what he said ? Did you tell him extension at back kitchen ?
*
Yes, I've asked whether extension for kitchen area is possible or not. He replied that since this is a PR1MA related house, any renovation works is not possible within 5 years lockdown period. I guess it is best to have more people to call in and confirm.

For the time being I'm going to get defects rectified. Make sure you properly inspect the unit after receiving the keys.

Good morning all. For your reference. I've not checked the switches yet and have not thoroughly go through the house for waterproofing defects. All these I've compiled is what I feel as superficial/surface defects. Feel free to give some comments, would appreciate that.

Got few quotation from nearby shops/seller around Setia Alam/BBR. For mild steel, powder coat, simple single bar design (cheapest) the pricing is from RM11.50 to RM 12 for window. For door it is between RM 16.50 to RM18

Total cost varies depending whether you want to put grill on kitchen window and door (option A) or choose to grill the whole tiled yard area (washing machine area, option B). Option A is cheaper

Estimated total area and cost for option A
- Door - 106 sqf x 17 = RM1802
- Window 121 sqf x 12 = RM 1452
- Total around RM 3.5K with GST

Estimated total area and cost for option B
- Doors 85 sqf x 17 = RM1445
- Window 105 sqf x 12= RM1260
- Yard grill 75 sqf x 17 = RM 1275
- Total around 4.3K with GST

There is also additional cost for plating (RM 80-100) and grill handle (RM 100-RM120).

Please take note that these are calculated cost. Vendor may give extra discount or add extra charges. Please share if you get any other quotation (hopefully cheaper).
*
Bro, what kind of plating they provide? Nickel-chromium?
Have you asked for pricing of stainless steel? I would estimate about 4-5x more compared to mild steel.

Hopefully it is not the same for you. Glancing over to my neighbours I did not notice much (can only see outside & backyard lar..). Not all houses were built the same.

Thanks. I took reference from aaronpang https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/385900

If Saron of course less superior than Nobat in terms of quality. One is rumah mampu milik and one is for normal public.

Or are they the same quality?
*
That is quite wrong. Why should they be any less superior in terms of quality? Remember, the total built-up size is not the same. If one were to fully extend Saron to double storey at the back, the cost of renovation itself would perhaps match Saron to Nobat . Mampu milik isn't an excuse to neglect finishings & quality. Seem quite criminal to me. It is rather dissapointing for them hide under the facade of "mampu milik". Just my opinion.

Hi all.
Just to inform you guys (probably I am the first) MY MASTER BEDROOM BATHROOM IS NOT WATERPROOF. 😠😠😠

I went for a followup visit today to start to list the defects and sadly the first thing I saw was the water stain mark near the staircase.
So guys, do check your unit properly. Take the taikos advice and flood your bathroom a bit. Then if theres no watermark during your later visits, you are safe.

P.S finishing is bad, thats why they give you 2 years to complain. If you dont complain, its your fault. Thats the same with every other house too. Not just Saron. 😊😊😊

Hi Peter, have you got your leaking problem rectified? What is their solution?

Anybody else facing the same issue and got it solved already?

Bro, fill in the DRF (Defect Rectification Form) and submit to their office in Sales Gallery. If anything is not done within 30 days you can then engage your own contractor and claim from Sime Darby the charges.

(RM 11/sqft)

2 ) Powder Coated Plain Colour ( Smooth Surface ) for Mild Steel Window Grille

Hi pkypky. This quotation looks familiar. Although I chose Round tube instead of SHS. You'll be doing only window or will include door and the backyard area as well? When you'll be placing the grill?

I only do for upper floor grille, ground floor door and window not yet include as need to do extension later.

I'd assume they shall require the grills to be transported at the same time for the additional discounts. Let me know. I'll not be installing the grill so soon, currently still in wet works stage.

I'll also be installing the main gate from them.

Yup. So how was their workmanship?
