Two required fields. Tell us the flat and the timing, and the rest can come on the call.
What happens next
What you get back, and when
The short answer
You get a reply within one working day carrying two things: the questions we need answered before anyone can price the work, and an indicative cost band drawn from the dated sources on this site. The band is a range, never a quote.
One of us reads the enquiry, checks what your flat type and BTO project allow, and replies within one working day with two things: the questions we need answered before anyone can price the work, and an indicative cost band drawn from the dated sources on this site. That band is a range, not a quote. A quote needs a scope, and a scope needs the flat.
There is no phone number on this page on purpose. Renovation questions are answered badly in ninety seconds and well in writing, and an enquiry we can read is one we can price.
Before you send
Three things worth knowing first
The short answer
Nothing structural starts without a written HDB permit, restricted works run Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm only, and a new block must be finished within 3 months of the permit being granted. Each of those is linked to the HDB page it came from.

After you send
What we do, in order
-
Scope and measure
We walk the flat after key collection, measure every run, and write down what you want changed and what HDB will let you change.
-
Permit and drawings
Your contractor files the electronic application. Wall demolition needs the flat’s floor plan submitted with it.
-
Hacking and wet works
Demolition, tiling and anything touching the bathroom happen first, inside the restricted-hours window.
-
Carpentry and finish
Kitchen and wardrobe carpentry is fabricated to a fixed specification, then installed, then painted.
Privacy
What we do with your details
The short answer
Your details are used to answer this enquiry and nothing else. They are not sold, and they are not added to a mailing list.
We use what you send to answer this enquiry and for nothing else. We do not sell your details and we do not pass them to a mailing list. The full record of what is collected and how long it is kept is on the privacy policy, and it is generated from the form itself rather than written by hand, so it cannot drift out of date. If you would rather email, write to hello@btorenovation.sg.
