Sham Shui Po

Sham Shui Po has Hong Kong's oldest housing stock, so the cheapest prices and the longest waits often go together. Emergency call-outs here are about dealing with old cast-iron pipes and re-wired flats. Sham Shui Po and Mei Foo concentrate the oldest pipework and wiring in the city, along with leaking window sills and balconies. The newer Mei Foo estates lean the other way, towards equipment replacement and full-flat inspections.
