Moving Into a New Home
More than 600 households a day take the keys to a home in Malaysia, and the same jobs come up in almost every move: window coverings for privacy and heat, a check for leaks before the first heavy rain, and a deep clean after renovation work.
Doing them before the furniture arrives is cheaper and quicker than doing them around it.
