HDB renovation: pre-planning checklist for smooth execution (checklist)

Define your budget and financing options for the renovation project.

Verify the contractors license with the relevant authorities, such as the HDB directory of Registered Renovation Contractors.

Common permits include those for hacking walls, electrical work, and plumbing modifications.

Cover furniture with protective sheets or store it in a safe area to prevent damage from dust and debris.

The timeline varies based on the scope of work, but allow for contingencies and potential delays.

Inform neighbors in advance, adhere to permitted work hours, and maintain cleanliness in common areas.
