What condo renovation involves
Condo units are usually newer than resale flats, so the work leans toward finishes, built-ins and lighting rather than heavy structural change. But the building's rules shape the whole schedule.
- Carpentry and built-ins: wardrobes, TV consoles, feature walls and kitchen cabinetry sized to the unit.
- Tiling, flooring and false ceiling: tiles, vinyl or timber-look flooring plus cove and L-box ceilings for concealed lighting.
- Electrical and lighting: additional points, smart switches and downlights by an EMA-licensed electrician.
- Plumbing and wet works: kitchen and bathroom upgrades with proper waterproofing.
Working within MCST rules
Most condo delays come from management conditions, not the renovation itself. We plan around them from day one.
- Submit renovation applications and deposits to the MCST before works start.
- Protect lifts, lobbies and common corridors as the building requires.
- Keep to approved working hours and noise windows so works are not stopped midway.
Condo renovation packages and cost
We price condo renovation by line item and offer fixed packages for common scopes. Cost depends on unit size, the amount of carpentry and your finish level. You can compare our quote against the published price guide before committing, with no lump-sum guesswork.
