"We quoted for Fauzan's place from a referral in 2021. Although we were shortlisted for the project, we were not awarded. Fauzan still came back to us for his parent's place. And we were happy to have delivered up to their expectations. "
"Aidil and his team has been very professional and responsive throughout our engagement with them on our custom-made capentries. From the first consultation, 2nd site visit from his team and finally the installation of our carpentries has been smooth sailing. Without a doubt, I will definitely recommend Aidil and his team to my family and friends who is looking to custom-made capentry."
"Renovation of my 3 room resale flat consisted of full hacking (except walls), full tiling including kitchen wall tiles up to ceiling, re- wiring, new plumbing, new doors and complete. Renovation of 2 bathrooms and kitchen. Renovation went faster than expected, and we were able to move in, within 1 month. Cupboard installation and minor touch ups went for another 2 weeks with no disturbance to us living there. Mr. Aidil went beyond our expectations and he was willing to listen and adjust to our needs. What is remarkable is that he is true to his words, punctual and honest. Went though quotations of at least 5 other renovation companies and found this company to be of better value with no hidden or unnecessary charges. "
"First of all, thank you for taking us as your client to renovate our kitchen and some other stuff that we add in. Everything was done nicely. I cant deny there's some hiccups along the way, but that's normal. Just in time for us to celebrate raya with a new kitchen. Thank you Aidil and Renovation Contractor Singapore!"
"We happy to share our experience with RCS and their team, who recently completed our 4 room BTO renovation. We first found RCS through our family members & friend whom recommended them to us. We trusted their judgements and went ahead with RCS. The initial consultation was with Hussin followed by Aidil for execution. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, their professionalism and expertise were impressive. When we first met Aidil, we informed him that we hope to have our house ready by Hari Raya. However he exceeded our expectations by completing it just right before Chinese New Year, 1 month earlier. When we got our keys in Mid December, Aidil got his team started few days after and completed within a month by meeting our expectations of the house, budget and timeframe, despite all the delays due to end year holidays. RCS also uses Google Calendar to organize and manage the project which was seamless for us to track their works. Whenever we noticed issues such as leaking, missing item or even carpentry issues, Aidil was speedy in solving them. He would attend to it as soon as possible. Least to say, we do not have much issues with their workmanship. Aidil is accommodating and reliant. We are satisfied with the final results, and we would highly recommend RCS to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled renovation contractor that can meet your expectations within your budget and time. Aidil and team was diligent and efficient throughout the project. Thank you Aidil! Wishing you continued success and growth in your business! ✨"

"Ismail was moving over into a bigger place from his existing. And he is a family friend. His project was just after covid, where we were still in the midst of restrictions. Having a great team helps with delivering projects on time. "
"Newlyweds Kaysen & Nadia, had just bought their 3 room BTO resale, and we revamped the whole house for them. From hacking, combining their dining, kitchen and service yard. Tiling for their toilets and whole house vinyl flooring. This project was a little emotional for us as one of them had gone through a renovation nightmare before, when his parents renovated recently. We had assured him that we were not a fly by night contractor, and our Project Manager had personally committed to an undertaking to complete the project within the agreed timeline. "
"Khairil is an old friend. We've known each other since primary school. When he wanted to spruce up his place for last raya, he reached out to us for a quote. Initially he wanted to change to a new kitchen as well, but decided against it as it was too near to Raya. So we proceeded for hacking of existing laminate flooring for the whole house, painting, and herringbone vinyl flooring for the whole house. This was done while the place is full up to the brim with furniture. And we managed to pull this off in 1 week through a tightly managed project schedule. Reach out to us and see how you can benefit from our expertise. "
"Jolene's husband, Kumar had contacted us through Facebook. We discussed a little bit about their needed renovation, and arranged to meet at the unit to finalize the works. Kumar had put his trust in us since the beginning, as he had sensed we were sharing truthfully about the renovation even when the contract was not awarded to us yet. He appreciated us for this, and we completed his resale EA in Jurong West within the agreed timeline even though there were delays caused by their vanity supplier. They were a very pleasant couple to work with, and we are very happy to have helped them realise their dream home. "
"Lennie was a mentor when we joined BNI Champions. Coincidentally, his in laws needed to spruce up their unit for rental. We started by clearing the space out, revamping the whole kitchen, rewiring the unit and finishing it off with a fresh coat of paint. Happy and grateful that this had helped them get a very good price for their rental. Not forgetting of course, the agent that was tasked to find the perfect tenants did an amazing job marketing the unit."
"Puan Liza was helping her aunt to search for a renovation contractor. Her aunt needed to update her Ikea kitchen that is already failing. The project was nearing end of the year period, and we helped them to create the quote within 24hrs. They were decisive and we scheduled for the work. In the midst of the project, her aunt decided to also add flooring works for her kitchen. And everything was done within 1mth 1wk, with additional glass backing works as well. Another happy handover achieved. "

A standard timeline for a HDB renovation will depend on the work needed.
For example, let’s take a simple BTO kitchen cabinet package
. After confirmation with your chosen renovation firm, you’ll need to choose the materials like laminate and quartz.
Depending on whether you already have something in mind or just going to think about it, this can take anywhere from:
Choosing of materials for kitchen cabinet
- 3 days to up to 2 weeks for fickle minded homeowners
While going through this process, homeowners can already send their chosen laminate designs to renovation firm for them to start the drawing. Some renovation firm provides the 3D rendering. You’ll need to confirm with yours about it.
The 3D rendering can take another:
3D rendering
- 3 days to 1 week.
If you need to change the laminate designs, this can take up more time deciding on the final design to be used for your kitchen cabinet. While the process is taking place, the base of the kitchen cabinet can already be constructed and electrical points extended.
For this to happen, decision on the layout of your kitchen cabinet would have been made.
Base construction takes only:
- 1 day
Electrical works should also take only
- 1 day
After this it’s the taking of measurements for your kitchen cabinet. Once measurements, finalizing the layout and choosing laminate designs are done, fabrication can take:
- 2 to 3 weeks
When fabrication is completed, delivery and installation can take another:
- 1 to 2 days
Followed by countertop measurement to installation another:
- 3 to 5 days
And finally its the installation of your electrical connections, switches and installation of your sink and tap. Considering that there is no glass backing for your kitchen cabinet. If there is the whole process will take longer.
For renovation works that requires other trades as well like hacking, masonry, plastering, rewiring and more. Please check with us again for the complete breakdown of the works and timeline.

A whole house renovation depends on the works needed and done for the whole unit.
It can be as straight forward as hacking, tiling, carpentry, rewiring and painting. Or as complex as adding customized niche for the house aesthetics, conceal wiring, plastering, ceiling works and very customized carpentry works for the whole house.
Let’s take a 5 room HDB resale unit as an example.
For the hacking and tiling of the whole house can cost about:
- $30,000 more or less, inclusive limited carpentry for the kitchen, painting and minor electrical works
When you add on rewiring which can cost about:
- $3500 minimum
Plastering:
- $3950 minimum
Windows and grilles estimated at 150 sqft:
- $2250 and $1500 respectively
Including Main door, bedroom doors and air con, this can add up to be a substantial amount. We have not gotten to the carpentry works for the other areas of the house yet.
It can be frightening when you add it all up. This is why majority of renovation firms bait you in with a cheap renovation package. They know add ons are inevitable. But you don’t. Agreeing to commit for a cheap package is easy. Only after you are halfway into it do you realize you need to spend more. And you cannot back out of it already. Now you are spending money that you did’nt want to and likely also spending money that you don’t have.
There is a way out of this if you are realistic from the start, and try to understand each quote that you get by scrutinizing the descriptions more closely.
After all this, you still need to have enough money for your kitchen equipment and home furnishings. This is why i would strongly recommend to choose a comprehensive renovation package that may have included sanitary fittings into it. This can greatly reduce your cost by a couple of thousand dollars.

After you have decided that you are going through with the renovation, the first thing would be deciding who you would like to work with for your project.
An architect, an interior designer or a contractor. I will try to explain the best I can for the different functions that they carry out.
The first will be an architect. Architects that do interior work are generally one of the priciest to engage. Why you may ask? They charge by a fee or by project value. Most in the industry charge by project value. Meaning that they charge a percentage amount on top of the total costs of the renovation. The value that they provide is huge. They are trained professionals, and will provide you detailed drawings for your proposed projects. And they will help you to get quotes for the project. In doing so, they do have main contractors that they prefer and have working experience with.
The second, will be an interior designer. Majority of these IDs are not trained in interior design. Although many have spent time in the industry and have huge industry knowledge in interior design and project management. Some top tier interior designers charge a design fee and will see to it that every picture frame, sofa and cushion that they propose are available in the market. And others do the project management on top of the designing work that they do, while not charging a design fee. There are also interior designers who just sit in the office and churn out drawings after drawings with no project knowledge at all.
Coming to the last one, we have the direct contractor and they fall into at least 3 different categories:
– First is the main contractor, who works with other sub-contractors to carry out the project.
– Second is the contractor who does most of the work themselves. For example:- hacking, electrical, plumbing etc. There is no one contractor who has in-house all the workers in the different trades. If they did say this, then they are lying.
– Last comes the sub-contractors who you will need to source out yourselves. Evaluate whether they are reliable. And manage each one of them yourselves.
The above are just some examples of who you can choose to work with. If you need further help in deciding and understanding more, reach out to us for our consultation service. It’s cheaper than making a mistake later on.
Here are some things that can be done.
After deciding on which area to renovate, and what you want done. You can start planning.
I will take a kitchen renovation as a guide for you.
While comparing quotes and contractors for your project, you can start to think about the new kitchen layout that you want.
- Sink and stove placement
- Fridge and washer area
- Tall unit for microwave and oven
Whether the layout is practical or not, the contractor that you choose will give you further advise later on.
After you have an idea for this, you start deciding on your colors. Once you have a firm idea on colors, it’s the sink tap hood and hob choices. Finally will be your lighting. Don’t forget about your electrical points as well and which areas you’ll need them the most. As this is a good time to get everything in your kitchen in order.
Now that you’ve gotten all this in straightened, you are ready to choose the right contractor to carry out the works.
Don’t worry if a contractor cannot give you proper advise. We are always here to help with a comprehensive quote, so that you will not go over budget.

There is no good time to start renovating.
Home owners buy and sell houses according to their specific need. And very dependant on what they are going through in the present.
You may not have control of when your house can suddenly become a good sell.
When you have the flexibility of time, you should avoid December and before Chinese New Year period. Especially when you have a tight deadline, with no other place to stay as back up.
Other months around the year don’t really have a peak like the year end.
Don’t forget to always have a plan, plan ahead and stick to your plan.
