🔹 Step 1: Assess Your Site and Intentions


  • Do you want to rebuild, extend, or A&A?

  • Check your site’s GFA, zoning, and URA envelope control

  • Common mistakes: ignore drainage reserve and AMSL levels



🔹 Step 2: Engage a Design & Build Team Early


  • Why separating designer and builder = risk of misalignment

  • Hitomo’s approach: Architect + Builder collaboration from Day 1

  • Avoid “rework” caused by impractical designs



🔹 Step 3: Submit for Authority Approvals


  • Who submits what: QP handles URA/BCA/SCDF/PUB

  • Typical submission timeline: 2–4 months

  • Don’t forget: drainage clearance, tree protection plans, ECM



🔹 Step 4: Demolition and Site Prep


  • Temporary power, water, hoarding, toilets

  • Hacking + haulage plan approval

  • Site marking for boundary, platform level



🔹 Step 5: Foundation & Structural Works


  • Soil investigation if needed

  • RC footing or pile foundation

  • BCA / RTO stage inspections



🔹 Step 6: Build-Up and Roof Works


  • Superstructure framing

  • M&E rough-in (conduits, plumbing, drainage)

  • Waterproofing critical checkpoints



🔹 Step 7: Internal Works & Finishing


  • Flooring, tiling, carpentry, windows, painting

  • Electrical/lighting fittings

  • What delays handover most: carpentry + door / window / glass orders



🔹 Step 8: TOP, CSC & Handover


  • URA approval

  • PUB drainage + sanitary approval

  • NParks / LTA / NEA approval

  • BCA As Built Structural + Barrier approval

  • BCA HS approval

  • BCA Overall TOP submission → move-in → CSC clearance
