物管答疑:施工拙劣

问:如果业主不满意建筑物的施工品质,管理机构(Management Corporation)可以向哪一个机构投诉? 如果是分层房产的公共财产,管理机构可以向分层管理仲裁庭投诉。管理机构也可以将有关投诉带到地方政府或民事法庭。切记要准备好充分的证明文件和证据。   问:我们的公寓才建好五年,油漆就已经开始剥落,这算是施工拙劣吗?为什么会发生这样的情况,我们能够怎样防止情况发生? 一个涂抹在没有裂缝和渗水墙面上的优质外墙涂料,在五年后的情况应该还是尚好的。 在五年内发生油漆剥落的情况,可能是因为当初在油漆前没有对墙壁表面做好准备功夫,因此导致如今出现油漆粘合力消失的问题。 导致油漆过早损坏的常见因素,也包括油漆当中有掺杂了其他填料,还有墙面出现渗水、霉菌、藻类、裂痕和空洞等问题。而墙面褪色和出现风化现象,就是油漆过早损坏的的预兆。   Anthony Lee是Architect Centre培训员兼顾问、2019年EdgeProp大马最佳产业管理大奖评委(Best Managed Property Awards)与2019年EdgeProp.
