This depends on the size of your office and other specific requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are other contractors like electrical contractors and plumbing contractors who charge a fixed fee for every hour of work and the going rate for a service like that is about $60 an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t want your cost to increase, just get the details from the contractor early on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Costs_you_will_encounter_during_an_office_Renovation\"><\/span><strong>Costs you will encounter during an office Renovation <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Material Costs <\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the biggest cost and the amount you spend totally depends on you. The cost of material can truly vary. From the type of carpet you use to the quality of wood, all of these can add up. You need to figure out what needs to be high quality, and what aspect of your office refurbishment can be a lower budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expensive materials will add to your costs. When you speak to your contractor, always ask them for the cheapest and most expensive offering. A lot of contractors do promote materials where they can get a cut off. Ask them if you can check out the cheapest priced material. Cheapest doesn\u2019t always mean bad quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Labour Costs <\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Labour costs also depend on the type of the material you use. Labour costs can go up if you have custom requirements, custom modeling. This is the second biggest cost after the material cost. So if you want to keep the cost to a minimum, then you need to ensure that there isn&#8217;t any work that requires too much customization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also for projects where the labour cost is hourly and for each person individually, then you need to ensure if so much labour is required and what their tasks will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Specific Costs <\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>There are always additional costs that depend on your situation. The Air Condition unit in your office might be different or it might be difficult to do flooring work in certain parts of your office and so on. Always consider these factors as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cheap Office Renovation in Singapore <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of people are scared to look for office renovation services in Singapore because they are scared that they won\u2019t be able to pay the exorbitant amounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there are commercial office renovators who don\u2019t break the bank. But before getting to that, you need to understand the types of office renovation services in Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Office_Renovation_Services_in_Singapore\"><\/span><strong>Office Renovation Services in Singapore<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/office-renovation-cost-singapore.jpg\" alt=\"office renovation singapore cost\" class=\"wp-image-140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/office-renovation-cost-singapore.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/office-renovation-cost-singapore-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/office-renovation-cost-singapore-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/office-renovation-cost-singapore-405x270.jpg 405w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Most office renovation contractors offer these services in Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Electrical and Electronic fittings and repair and relaying and installation<\/li><li>Plumbing change, fitting, reinstatement<\/li><li>Wall construction, wall gypsum construction<\/li><li>Interior design work<\/li><li>Ceiling addition, false ceiling installation, removal of false ceiling<\/li><li>Carpentry, custom woodwork, custom tables<\/li><li>Office painting, painting of walls<\/li><li>Curtain installation, blinds installation<\/li><li>Installing carpets, floor covering with vinyl<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_hire_an_office_renovation_contractor_in_Singapore\"><\/span><strong>How to hire an office renovation contractor in Singapore <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Commercial office renovation can cost you a bomb if you aren\u2019t careful. The bills add up and the project goes over your budget and you will be standing there having spent more than twice your budget and with an office that is half done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You do not want to encounter this. So here are some tips on how to have a good office renovation experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Find a skilled contractor with experience <\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are office contractors who are good at one task such as plumbing and electricals or some who have a team of experts for various tasks. Depending on your requirement, find the right office contractor by asking for references. Once you have a list of contractors, find out their past work and see if you can talk to somebody like an office manager at those offices to see if this contractor has done a good job. You will need to go through at least 7 to 8 contractors and check their quotes and rates before you finalize one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Address the biggest issues in the office <\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to reduce the costs of office renovation, then the first step is to address the biggest problems in the office. You can choose a piecemeal strategy to address your office renovation issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means if the biggest problem is plumbing, you address that, fix it and move on to the next problem at a later date. A piecemeal approach is a great way to fix office renovation issues when your office is already functional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Get a quote for every individual renovation task <\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where most office managers or decision makers get it wrong when they renovate their office and subscribe to all the services. A lot of contractors, just give a single bulk amount with a massive premium that the decision maker isn\u2019t aware of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to get a breakup of all the costs before you engage a contractor. This way you know what you are paying for and can keep your costs down and can also ensure that you are not being overcharged for something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Talk about hidden costs <\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Costs tend to add up and like they say, when it rains, it pours and you\u2019ll be drenched with a long bill in your hands. To avoid this, speak to the contractor about extra costs. Tell them that any costs that are out of the contract will not be borne by you or the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask the contractor to do their due diligence and check the quality of the fittings and fixtures before they get to their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is important to ensure that your office renovation job does not exceed the budget!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Get a timeline for every task <\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes contractors reduce their overheads, they employ lesser people, which takes too much time. You don\u2019t want a renovation team sitting for months on end trying to renovate your workspace. Get a fixed timeline before you sign a contract with the office renovation company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read also:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/reinstatement-services-singapore\/\">Reinstatement Services Singapore<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Partition Contractor Services in Singapore (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/dry-wall-partition-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\">Partition Contractor Services in Singapore<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/getcontractor.sg\/commercial-industrial-aircon-services-in-singapore\/\">Commercial and Industrial Aircon Services Singapore<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These days if your office isn\u2019t in tip top condition, you\u2019ll find it very hard to attract top talent.
