In 2026, a full HDB renovation in Singapore typically costs between S$40,000 and S$80,000, depending on flat size and scope. A 4-room BTO averages around S$45,000–65,000, a resale flat costs 20–40% more (due to hacking and overhaul), and condominium renovations range from S$50,000 to S$150,000+. Commercial and F&B fit-outs start from around S$30,000. Below is a full breakdown by property type, by room, and the factors that move the price.
New BTO flats need less structural work, so costs are lower than resale. These ranges cover a full-home renovation including carpentry, flooring, painting, electrical and basic built-ins.
| Flat Type | Basic Reno | Mid-Range | Premium |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Room BTO | S$30,000 | S$40,000 | S$55,000 |
| 4-Room BTO | S$38,000 | S$50,000 | S$68,000 |
| 5-Room BTO | S$45,000 | S$60,000 | S$85,000 |
| Executive / Jumbo | S$55,000 | S$75,000 | S$100,000+ |
Resale flats usually cost 20–40% more than a comparable BTO because of hacking, rewiring, replacing old plumbing and overhauling worn finishes.
| Flat Type | Light Update | Full Overhaul |
|---|---|---|
| 3-Room Resale | S$25,000 | S$55,000 |
| 4-Room Resale | S$35,000 | S$70,000 |
| 5-Room / Executive Resale | S$45,000 | S$90,000+ |
Condo renovations vary widely with size, material grade and the extent of custom work. Landed homes typically start where condos end.
| Property | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Condo (partial / cosmetic) | S$30,000 – S$60,000 |
| Condo (full renovation) | S$60,000 – S$150,000 |
| Landed / Bungalow | S$150,000 – S$500,000+ |

| Flooring (whole home) | S$6,000 – S$18,000 |
| Painting (whole home) | S$1,800 – S$4,500 |
Commercial fit-outs are priced per square foot and by fit-out complexity. F&B and clinics cost more due to M&E, ventilation and compliance.
| Space Type | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Office / Retail fit-out | S$30,000 – S$120,000 |
| F&B / Café / Restaurant | S$50,000 – S$200,000+ |

A full 4-room HDB renovation in 2026 typically costs between S$38,000 and S$68,000. A new BTO is at the lower end, while a resale flat requiring hacking and rewiring costs 20–40% more.
Condominium renovations range from about S$30,000 for cosmetic updates to S$60,000–S$150,000 for a full renovation, depending on size, material grade and the amount of custom carpentry.
Carpentry and custom built-ins (kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, feature walls) are usually the single largest cost, often 40–50% of a residential budget.
A single-room refresh takes 3–6 weeks, while a full HDB or condo renovation typically runs 8–16 weeks from design sign-off to handover.
