Elevate your condominium living space with Renobros Interior. We specialise in navigating MCST regulations, maximising layouts, and delivering premium finishes that match the quality your condo deserves.
Condo renovation in Singapore is fundamentally different from renovating an HDB flat. Condominiums are governed by the Management Corporation Strata Title (MCST), which imposes its own set of rules on top of building regulations. From restricted working hours to mandatory renovation deposits and material transport requirements, the process demands a contractor who knows how to navigate these complexities efficiently.
At Renobros Interior, we have extensive experience working with MCSTs across Singapore. We handle permit applications, coordinate material deliveries during approved hours, ensure proper protection of common areas, and manage the renovation deposit process. Our team understands that every condominium development has its own by-laws, and we adapt our project management approach accordingly.
As a BCA-registered contractor with bizSAFE Level 3 certification, we meet the professional standards that most MCSTs require. Our CaseTrust accreditation further assures you of transparent pricing and ethical business practices throughout your renovation journey.
We prepare and submit all required documents to your condo management, handling approvals so you do not have to chase paperwork.
Our designers create sophisticated interiors with materials and finishes that complement the premium nature of condominium living.
Strict adherence to approved plans, proper site protection, and minimal disruption to your neighbours and common areas.
Before any renovation work can begin in a condominium, you need approval from the MCST or managing agent. Each development may have slightly different by-laws, but here are the common requirements you should be aware of.
Most condominiums restrict noisy renovation works to weekdays between 9am and 5pm, with some allowing Saturday mornings until 1pm. No work is permitted on Sundays and public holidays. Some newer developments have even tighter restrictions, limiting noisy works to specific blocks of time. Renobros Interior plans every project schedule around your specific condo's permitted hours to avoid penalties and maintain good relations with the management.
MCSTs typically require a refundable renovation deposit ranging from $2,000 to $10,000 depending on the development. This deposit covers potential damage to common areas during the renovation. We take extensive precautions to protect lifts, corridors, and shared spaces, helping ensure your deposit is returned in full upon completion.
Bulky materials must be transported via the service lift and through designated loading areas. Delivery times are usually restricted to specific windows. Our project managers coordinate all deliveries to comply with your condo's logistic requirements, minimising delays and disruption.
From the initial MCST application to the final deposit refund, our project management team takes care of every administrative detail. We coordinate with your condo management throughout the renovation so you can focus on the exciting parts, choosing your designs and watching your new home come to life.
Our condo renovation service covers everything from minor cosmetic updates to complete gut renovations. Here is what we typically handle for condo homeowners.
Bathroom renovations are among the most popular condo upgrades. We handle complete overhauls including re-tiling, waterproofing, new sanitary ware installation, vanity cabinetry, shower screen installation, and plumbing rerouting where needed. Proper waterproofing is critical in condos to prevent leaks to lower floors, and our team follows strict protocols with water ponding tests before proceeding.
Many condo kitchens benefit from layout optimisation to improve storage and workflow. We design and build custom kitchen cabinetry, install premium countertops, and can reconfigure plumbing to accommodate layout changes. Whether you have a closed kitchen, open concept, or wet-and-dry kitchen arrangement, we tailor the design to your cooking habits and lifestyle.
From feature walls and built-in storage to flooring replacement and lighting design, we transform living areas into spaces that reflect your personal style. Our designers pay special attention to spatial flow, ensuring each room feels proportionate and purposeful.
Our in-house carpentry workshop produces wardrobes, TV consoles, shoe cabinets, study desks, and storage systems precisely fitted to your condo's dimensions. Factory-built carpentry ensures superior quality and faster installation times compared to on-site fabrication.

Removing existing finishes, tiles, and built-in furniture adds significant cost. New condos with developer finishes may require less demolition.
Choices like marble versus porcelain tiles, solid surface versus quartz countertops, and laminate versus veneer carpentry dramatically affect the budget.
Moving walls, plumbing points, or electrical panels adds complexity and cost. Open concept conversions require careful structural assessment.
Built-in wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, TV feature walls, and storage units are typically the largest cost component in condo renovations.
Singapore condominiums come in a wide range of layouts, and each presents unique design opportunities. Our designers are experienced with the most common configurations found across developments island-wide.
Many modern condos feature combined living and dining areas. We use zoning techniques such as different flooring materials, ceiling treatments, and strategic furniture placement to create distinct functional zones within the open plan. This approach maintains the spacious feel while giving each area its own identity.
Smaller units under 600 square feet require creative solutions to maximise every inch. Multi-functional furniture, hidden storage, and visual tricks like mirrors and consistent colour palettes help these spaces feel larger than they are. Our portfolio includes numerous compact condo projects where smart design delivered impressive results.
Dual-key condos require careful planning to ensure both units function independently while sharing the overall aesthetic. We design each section with its own complete set of amenities while maintaining design cohesion across the property.
Balconies in Singapore condos offer valuable additional space. We can help integrate balconies as extensions of the living area with weatherproof finishes, outdoor-rated lighting, and built-in seating or planters. Proper drainage and material selection are essential for these semi-outdoor spaces.
