QUOTE(yktan83 @ Aug 17 2024, 10:31 PM) Hi, referring to the pictures, there is a sinkhole behind my house. It either the developer poorly constructed the area / not properly compacted the soil or there is a soil movement underground water causes the cavity. Need advice if there is any expert here, what caused the sinkhole? What should I do? Who can I engage to repair the sinkhole urgently? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Your house new or old ? Still can ask the developer to rectify if within can’t remember think within 6 years or so … falls under latent defect …structure defect you can’t see after DLP period ended… If not can try ask your majlis /council and make a report if you think that area is within the council jurisdiction. Hope this help Cheers mate izwan Www.archidstudio.com |
