Self renovation of own house?

My contractor and myself discussed. dont care just proceed.

Just go ahead.

If dont go ahead, I got no house to live end of this month. There is no bank moratorium, I dont want to pay rental and instalment.

If someone come kacau, I will ask him roof pecah how to live in this house? Window no grill, main door belum pasang, how to live inside without being paranoid of breakin?

I have sumilar situation like you...

I have no choice.

Contractors also have to pay salary. Their workers also need to eat, got wife and children at home everyday waiting for food. Money don't drop down from the sky if they don't work.

I have to take the risk even if gomen say it is disallowed.

During MCO 1.0, the authority did raid on the house renovation sites.
My renovation contractor was scared by his friends' cases.
He stopped work at my site and went through the official procedures before resuming works.

If anyone insists of continue the renovation, please pray for luck.
If the contactor is caught, the cost will be higher and completion date will be longer.

Risk has to be taken. Me and my contractors are both on the same page.

Cannot wait for death.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

I have gotten approval from MITI. Please write to covid19hotline@miti.gov.my & ask them. Each of us are different situation.

just applied at MITI..
same time proceed as usual...
approval might be slow... so if anyone ask.. just say waiting for MITI/already apply... so they won't disturb for now... later would come & check again... so show them your approvals...

renovation for condo or landed?

Just say if reno dont continue/complete, u got no house to stay, u ask them critical or not.

for most people is the loan + rental has to go on at the same time and with continuous delay, huge impact

Check at miti registration. Allow for 90% completion renovation works

I wrote house / rumah

There is a new updated SOP issued for renovation for strata property, is allowed now just cant do hacking work and must be vacant unit

from what i notice, most business operate as usual, i m only the shop in my industri that really close for mco

This MCO is really pointless as just register in MITI, some of my plumber/installer register and got approved a.s.a.p. So just apply miti, can work d. what is the point of MCO? Anyway, ask contractor apply, got letter d, can work in peace.

Good also also like this, if really total lockdown, cant reno, susah also. Almost can move in new house kena mco, luckily got miti approval then can do

However, need to check with management, many condo & landed with guard house do not allow reno

6. Adakah pengubahsuaian rumah (renovation) di skim strata dibenarkan dalam tempoh ini?
Ya. Urusan pengubahsuaian dibenarkan di unit/petak yang tidak dihuni (vacant unit). Kerja pengubahsuaian yang dibenarkan adalah seperti pemasangan aircond, kitchen cabinet, wardrobe, jeriji besi (grille) dan pendawaian. Walau bagaimanapun, kerja-kerja hacking yang melibatkan bunyi bising berterusan seperti pemasangan tiles tidak dibenarkan bagi kediaman strata bertingkat
