QUOTE(propertyowner @ Jul 19 2020, 04:11 PM) Which house by any developer don't hav hairline cracks? There are plenty of reasons for the cracks, one of it is weather and another is shear force for building which has ntg to do with developer. Material & workmanship doesn't play a role? So during vp developer can just say its noting to with us, weather problem 😆. I’ve seen some without these cracks, some 10 year old property also dont have hairline cracks. But these showhousr are just built.. 6mo - 1yo?

QUOTE(Jenn77 @ Jul 19 2020, 11:16 AM) Guys.. went to Elemen show house. Saw alot of hairline cracks on both units. Sign of bad workmanship? Anything to be concerned of? Checked out Cheria too, don't like the layout. Dalia.. way off my budget. End up booked Elemen. Show house is an actual unit with actual material? Or just a unit which constructed with non actual material...later to demolish?

But these showhousr are just built.. 6mo - 1yo? As said there are many causes to it, however it is quite common even you spot any hence nothing to shout about. If you'd purchased new properties b4, and it's due to poor workmanship, you can immediately see it during VP and lodge defect report and developer will definitely fix it for you. More often those cracks might only appear after years. After all - the hairline cracks is something you cannot quantify or predict before getting the key. I don't think a house with 10 years old is with zero hairline cracks tho. This post has been edited by propertyowner: Jul 20 2020, 03:20 AM

I wish i could say Tropicana Aman's quality/material/design is top notch... Unfortunately compared to Gamuda, Tropicana is a joke... 100+ defects identified during VP and 200 days later still not rectified

My earlier post is based on your comments too..  "100+ defects identified during VP and 200 days later still not rectified". Btw.. i visited Cheria, the guards with no face mask and no proper checking of vehicle too. Worth to take note this kinda sloppy SOP. Fyi.

I checked mine.. its not working

I only noticed the communication panel to guard house in Cheria houses. Is there any general alarm included? Elemens definitely no. This post has been edited by Jenn77: Jul 20 2020, 02:44 PM

Alarm, probably can use an app.. with a panic button etc. As long as linked to the guard house should be good enough. DOnt need extra infrastructure.

The entrance to Elemen will look like this according to one of the videos on Tropicana's website. Looks fantastic!

Yeap, i was told it could be due to the material used when they plastering the wall.. Somehow this type cracks often happened to landed vs highrise... Maybe dev can try to cut down the units affected.. I also notice such cracks with EW showunit (an actual unit), but in hidden place near balcony...

Best entrance currently i feel is Dalia... Not that their entrance is nicer then others but for the fact that there is a roundabout RIGHT infront of the entrance, which made it look like the roundabout is part of the entrance making it very grand/nice

Prevent tailgate and illegal entrance. But design wise its nice and practical.

None of the tropicana Aman A B C D so far has 2 layer gates... i suppose its a low density strata, if there is any tail gating, the security can spot/go after them.

Yup noticed too. My Taman used to have 1 barrier but some visitors proved to be difficult hence 2 barriers was introduced. Let's see how it goes
