Singapore HDB Renovation Journey | Plumbing, Electrical Works & Window Replacement Begin
Our 4-room Singapore HDB has officially moved on to the next stage after demolition : plumbing, electrical works, air-conditioning installation, and window replacement.
This project feels especially meaningful to me.
In the past, I was usually the one standing on site, helping clients review designs and overseeing the renovation process. But this time, I find myself constantly thinking:
"Will this be convenient for me and my family in the future?"
Where should the power points go?
Will the lighting be too bright?
How should the air-conditioning piping be routed?
Will the storage be practical enough?
These are the little details that may not seem obvious when the renovation is first completed, but they make a huge difference once you start living in the space every day.
Since we adjusted the layout, some of the plumbing and electrical points had to be replanned as well.
The bathrooms have now entered the waterproofing stage, and a water ponding test will be carried out afterwards.
At the same time, electrical wiring works have begun. The locations of the switches, sockets, lighting, and network points are all planned based on our actual daily lifestyle.
Air-conditioning piping is also being installed, ensuring a cleaner and more seamless finish once the ceiling works are completed.
Another thing many people overlook is HDB window replacement.
In Singapore, replacing windows requires prior approval, as it involves the building façade. It's not something that can simply be done without permission. I previously shared a separate video about this topic, so feel free to check it out if you're interested.
Although we're still in the construction phase, the space is slowly starting to feel like home. 🌿
For this project, I have chosen TUBAO Singapore to handle the entire renovation process, including plumbing, electrical works, interior finishes, and custom carpentry.
After all, this isn't just another project -it's a home we're preparing for many years to come. 🏡✨
