We design
condos that
feel like home

Condominium renovation in Singapore typically ranges from $35,000 for a studio/1-bedroom to $120,000+ for a 4-bedroom or penthouse. The final cost depends on design complexity, material selections, the extent of hacking and structural work, and whether you're doing a partial or full renovation. At MET Interior, every renovation package quotation is fully itemized with no hidden costs.

Our condo renovation packages include a free design consultation, 3D photorealistic renders, detailed floor plans, project management, custom carpentry, electrical rewiring, plumbing works, flooring, painting, and a workmanship warranty. Material selection and sourcing is handled by our in-house design company team.

Yes. We offer a structured progress payment plan tied to renovation milestones — typically 10% upon confirmation, 30% at carpentry stage, 30% at installation, and the remaining 30% upon handover. We can also work with renovation loans from major banks.

Condo renovations typically cost 20–40% more than comparable HDB renovations due to higher MCST requirements, premium material expectations, more complex layouts, and additional logistics (loading bay access, lift bookings, working hour restrictions). However, the finish quality and design possibilities are significantly elevated.

Absolutely. We manage the entire MCST process on your behalf — submitting renovation plans, coordinating the renovation deposit (typically $5,000–$10,000), arranging contractor insurance documentation, and ensuring all permits are approved before work begins. You never need to deal with your management committee.

Most condominiums in Singapore restrict renovation works to Monday–Friday 9:00am–5:00pm and Saturday 9:00am–1:00pm. No renovation work is permitted on Sundays and public holidays. Some condos have stricter rules. We plan our schedule meticulously around these hours to avoid penalties.

MCST renovation deposits in Singapore typically range from $5,000 to $10,000, depending on the condominium. This deposit is refundable upon satisfactory completion of renovation works and inspection by the management. We help you navigate the deposit process and ensure smooth recovery after handover.

Non-structural partition walls can generally be hacked or relocated in condos. However, structural walls, columns, and beams cannot be modified. Our team includes structural engineers who assess your unit's floor plan to determine exactly which walls can be removed for open-concept layouts — before any work begins.

Condo renovations require MCST approval, which includes submitting renovation plans, proof of contractor insurance, and a renovation deposit. For works involving structural changes, a Professional Engineer's (PE) endorsement may be required. Wet area waterproofing must meet BCA standards. We handle all permit requirements as part of our service.

For compact condos, we recommend minimalist, Scandinavian, or Japandi styles that emphasize clean lines, light colors, and multifunctional furniture. Key strategies include built-in storage, mirror accents to create visual depth, open-concept layouts, and furniture that serves double duty. We've designed over 200 compact units across Singapore.

Yes — open-concept layouts are one of our specialties. We can remove non-structural walls to merge the kitchen, dining, and living areas into a seamless flow. Our engineers verify wall types before any hacking begins. For condos with structural walls that can't be removed, we design creative pass-throughs, partial walls, or strategic furniture placement to achieve the same open feel.

Yes. Every project includes photorealistic 3D renders of every room so you can see exactly what your finished home will look like before a single wall is touched. We also provide detailed material boards with actual samples. Most clients tell us the final result matches the render with 95%+ accuracy.

Our approach combines spatial planning with smart design: platform beds with hidden storage, full-height built-in wardrobes, sliding/pocket doors instead of swing doors, console-turned-dining tables, compact but functional kitchens with pull-out systems, and visual tricks like continuous flooring and minimized visual clutter.

A typical full condo renovation takes 10–16 weeks from design confirmation to handover. This includes 2–4 weeks for design development, 1–2 weeks for MCST approval, and 8–12 weeks for renovation works. Partial renovations (kitchen or bathroom only) can be completed in 4–6 weeks.

Yes, but we recommend it only for partial renovations (one room at a time). For full renovations, we strongly recommend moving out temporarily for safety, dust control, and to allow our team to work most efficiently. We can phase the work if needed, completing one zone at a time so you can occupy the rest.

Ideally, begin planning 3–4 months before your desired move-in date. This allows time for design development, MCST approval (which can take 2–4 weeks), material ordering, and the renovation itself. For new-launch condos, we recommend engaging us 6 months before TOP to have designs finalized and permits ready.

While we pride ourselves on on-time delivery, unforeseen issues (structural surprises, material delays) can occasionally extend timelines. We communicate proactively — you'll receive weekly updates and immediate notification of any schedule changes. Our project managers work to minimize disruption and recover lost time wherever possible.

Yes. MET Interior is CaseTrust accredited, which means we adhere to industry best practices for fair pricing, transparent contracts, and consumer protection. We're also HDB-registered, BCA-licensed, RCMA members, and BizSafe 3 certified.

No. While we're well-known for our BTO and HDB work, we design and renovate condominiums, penthouses, landed homes, and commercial spaces across Singapore. Our portfolio includes projects from studio apartments to multi-level penthouses in developments like Reflections at Keppel Bay, Marina One, and Parc Clematis.

We provide a comprehensive workmanship warranty covering all renovation works. Carpentry and built-in items are covered for defects in materials and workmanship. Specific warranty terms are detailed in your renovation contract. We also assist with any post-renovation issues even beyond the warranty period.

We have two studios in Singapore: our main studio at 65 Ubi Road 1, Oxley Bizhub 1, #01-62 (Singapore 408729) near Ubi MRT, and our second studio at 8 Boon Lay Way, Tradehub 21, #02-14 (Singapore 609964) near Boon Lay MRT. Both are open for walk-ins and appointments.
