Reported 12 cracked toilet wall tiles in the 2 toilets to
HDB under its 1 year warranty period.
After site inspection by HDB engineer from the Building
Technology Department, it was mentioned that:
'...rectification will be carried out one toilet at a time so
that your family can still use the other toilet and the
rectification at each toilet to be completed within 5 working
days...'
It was also confirmed that someone must be at home when the
rectification work is carried out.
Do we need up to 5 workings days per toilet to change some
tiles?
Is it reasonable that someone has to take up to 10 days of leave
/ off from work just to replace 12 pieces of cracked tiles?
Within 5 working days mean that it will be done in 5 days
at
most. Usually such stuff shouldn't take more than 3
days though.
They might have to ( and probably will ) take down some of the
tiles around the 12 tiles, so it will take some time. Also, the 5
days will also include them having to come back to check if the new
tiles are properly in place or not.
Viciouskitty has given you a good idea, though you will also
need to lock up your valuables and not leave them around the
place.
