Experience is key.
Renovating a landed home is worlds away from renovating an HDB flat or condo. While owning a plot of land gives you the freedom to revamp your home’s layout to your liking, there are also a series of rules and regulations – like building codes – as well as works that require permission from the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA).
To minimise any hiccups during the renovation process, you’ll need a seasoned architect or interior designer that knows the ins-and-outs of a landed home renovation – and these are some of the best ones:
