Commercial Renovation

Office, retail and F&B renovation in Singapore, from fit-out and carpentry to electrical, flooring and store fixtures.

A commercial renovation has to look good, work hard and finish on time, because every day of disruption affects your business. Reno Guys renovates offices, shops, F&B outlets and showrooms across Singapore, with carpentry built in our own workshop in Woodlands.

Commercial Spaces We Renovate

Offices: workstations, meeting rooms, partitions, pantries, reception counters and storage.
Retail shops: display shelving, counters, fitting rooms and feature walls. See our store fixtures.
F&B outlets: cafés, restaurants and kiosks, including counters, seating and back-of-house areas. See our restaurant fit-outs.

Approvals and Compliance

Commercial works in Singapore often need approvals that home renovations don’t. Which ones apply depends on your premises and what you are changing:

Landlord or building management: most malls, office buildings and industrial landlords need to approve your fit-out plans and set rules on work hours, noisy works, deliveries and protection of common areas.
Fire safety: works that affect escape routes, fire doors, sprinklers, fire alarms or ventilation generally need SCDF plan approval before they start. Minor works may qualify for a simpler lodgement route.
Building and structural works: building works that need approval require plans submitted to BCA by a Qualified Person (a registered architect or professional engineer).
Change of use: if you are turning a space into a different use, such as a shop into an eating place, planning permission from URA may be needed.
Licensed trades: electrical work must be done by an EMA-licensed electrical worker, and plumbing by a PUB-licensed plumber. F&B businesses also need the right food shop licence from SFA.

We work with your Qualified Person and building management so the works match the approved plans. Check early which approvals your project needs, because they affect the timeline.

Built Around Your Business

Every day your premises are closed costs you money. We plan commercial renovations so the work fits your business: carpentry is built off-site while the site is prepared, noisy work is scheduled when the building allows it, and larger jobs can be phased so part of the space stays open.

Less Downtime

We plan and phase the works around your opening hours and your building's rules.

Our Own Workshop

Counters, fixtures, booths and office carpentry are built in our Woodlands workshop.

One Point of Contact

Carpentry, electrical, flooring, painting and aircon are coordinated by one team.

From Bare Unit to Opening Day

Whether you are taking over a bare unit, refreshing a shop between tenancies or reconfiguring an office for a growing team, we handle the build from site survey to handover. We work alongside your landlord, building management and Qualified Person so approvals and works stay on track.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about this service and how we can assist you.

Do I need approval to renovate my office or shop?

Usually yes. Most landlords and building managers must approve your fit-out plans first. Works that affect fire safety, such as escape routes, sprinklers or fire doors, generally need SCDF approval, and a change of use may need URA approval. Your Qualified Person can confirm what applies.

Can you work outside our business hours?

Yes, where the building allows it. Many malls and office buildings require noisy works to be done after hours. We plan the schedule around your operating hours and the building’s rules, and can phase larger jobs so part of your space stays open.

How long does a commercial renovation take?

It depends on the size of the space, the scope of work and the approvals needed. A simple office refresh is much quicker than a full fit-out of a bare unit with new M&E works. Authority and landlord approvals can add time, so it helps to start them early. We give you a schedule with your quotation.

What should I prepare before asking for a quote?

Share the unit’s floor plan or address, your landlord’s fit-out guidelines if you have them, the number of staff or seats you need, your brand colours or reference photos, and your target opening date. With these, we can survey the site and give you a more accurate itemised quotation.

Can you make custom counters and fixtures for our shop?

Yes. Counters, display shelving, cabinets and booths are designed to your brand and built in our Woodlands workshop, then installed on site. Building off-site keeps dust and noise in your unit to a minimum.
