Renovation is the highest-stakes home services category in Singapore — a 4-room HDB reno costs S$35,000-130,000, and the difference between hiring an HDB Registered Renovation Contractor (RRC) and a fly-by-night outfit can mean a functional home or a two-year legal battle. HDB's RRC list is the non-negotiable check, and payment staging (not upfront) is what separates legitimate contractors from deposit-collection scams. KakiList connects you with 211 verified Renovation providers serving the Ang Mo Kio area. Our listed providers maintain an average rating of 4.7★ based on Google reviews.

For any HDB renovation, the contractor must be on HDB's Registered Renovation Contractors (RRC) list. This is enforced — homeowners using unregistered contractors face permit rejection and may have to undo work. Verify the RRC number on HDB's website before signing. For condo work, equivalent check is BCA registration.
HDB 4-room light package: S\$35,000-55,000. Mid-range (quartz counters, wardrobes, appliances): S\$55,000-85,000. High-end: S\$85,000-130,000. Condo 3-bedroom: S\$60,000-250,000+. Landed structural A&A: S\$350,000-900,000+. Budget 10-14 weeks from hacking to handover for HDB; 18-36+ months for landed A&A.
Staged: typically 10-20% on signing, 30% at hacking completion, 30% at carpentry/fit-out, 20% at handover. Any contractor demanding 50%+ upfront is the classic Singapore "disappearing contractor" pattern. Legitimate contractors manage cash flow through progress payments — large upfront demands are a red flag.
HDB permits (Certificate of Approval or COP) are needed for floor tile hacking, common wall work, window changes, and toilet modifications. A contractor saying "no need permit" is planning illegal work. For condo renovations, MCST approval, a security deposit (S\$1,000-3,000 refundable), and work hour restrictions apply — your contractor should handle coordination.
10-14 weeks is standard for a full 4-room HDB reno: 1-2 weeks hacking, 2-3 weeks masonry and carpentry, 3-4 weeks fit-out, 1-2 weeks finishing and handover. Contractors promising 6-week full renovations are either over-promising or cutting corners. Delays of 2-4 weeks are common due to material delivery, HDB inspections, and coordination issues.
