1. Check their portfolio
- Look at completed projects similar to your home type (BTO, Condo, Resale, Landed).
2. Read customer reviews
- Check Google reviews, Facebook reviews, and real customer feedback.
3. Visit their showroom
- Seeing material samples, workmanship, and design concepts in person can help you make a better decision.
4. Compare quotations carefully
- Don’t just compare prices. Check what’s included, material specifications, warranty, and scope of work.
5. Verify licenses and permits
- Ensure they are familiar with HDB renovation guidelines and permit requirements.
6. Evaluate communication
- A good designer or contractor should listen to your needs, provide practical advice, and respond promptly.
7. Ask about project management
- Understand who will oversee the renovation and how progress updates will be communicated.
