Just when she thought the ordeal was over, a home owner was upset to learn that the renovation of her new neighbour's unit will be extended until Nov 27.

"It was a nightmare from day one," she recounted. "I returned home at around 3pm to loud sounds of banging and drilling. I could even feel the tremor from the floor.""Items like my cosmetics and some decorations had dropped onto the floor. And when I went to the toilet, the mirror that was hanging on the wall had also dislodged and dropped off," she said. "I even cut myself while I was cleaning up the debris.

"I could only endure it since it was a legitimate application," said Madam Chen. "For a whole month, I tolerated the noise. The workers were at it six days a week, from 9am to 6pm."She added: "Sometimes, they would carry on until 8pm, beyond the permitted hours. There were several times when I had to approach the workers to get them to stop.""I recently found out through the OneService app that the end date would now be Nov 27.
