RUBBISH CHUTE REPAIR & REPLACEMENT

Experts for HDB, Condo

RUBBISH CHUTE REPAIR & REPLACEMENT

Before centralised rubbish chutes were built in the 90s for HDB flats, each Condo and HDB unit had their own trash chute. Now only a common sight in Condos and older HDB flats, these individual garbage chutes come with its own setbacks despite their convenience. One of the main issues with having a garbage chute installed in your HDB or Condo is the increased risk of pest problems. If your rubbish chute is not well maintained or sealed, cockroaches, rats, and even unwanted odours may cause a hassle in your home. Therefore, it is important to constantly service and repair your rubbish chute to cockroach proof it and prevent the invasion of pests. The same applies to maintaining the function of your rubbish chute hopper – if its quality is compromised, the proper replacement is necessary so that it effectively prevents the entry of fumigation gases and pests such as cockroaches.

Why Cockroach Proof Your Rubbish Chute?

To ensure that roaches do not invade your homes, the National Environmental Agency (NEA) and the Housing & Development Board (HDB) in Singapore conduct fogging and fumigation works. However, these are rarely conducted and are not effective in maintaining the sanitation of the bins. Therefore, hiring professional rubbish chute contractors to cockroach proof your HDB or Condo garbage chute with a properly sealed bin is important to:

  • Keep your home clean and healthy
  • Reduce the risk of allergens and harmful bacteria being spread in your home
  • Disinfect internal walls so that breeding grounds are completely removed

How to seal rubbish chute or fix it when the door is stuck?

If your rubbish chute door is stuck or the seal is worn out, it’s best not to force it open. Over time, wear and tear can cause the silicon seal to lose its airtight fit, letting in smells and pests. The best solution is to replace the door or seal with help from a professional rubbish chute contractor.
