About us
Direct contractor for hacking, demolition & renovation support
SB Hacking and Painting is a Singapore renovation contractor specialising in the messy middle of a remodel—controlled hacking and selective demolition, coordinated haulage, reinstatement where leases require make-good, and substrate preparation that keeps painting and finishes on track. Homeowners, interior firms, and main contractors rely on us when permits, protection, and disposal discipline matter as much as speed.
Registered with BCA and approved to carry out HDB hacking works (ref. HB-02-5913Z), we programme strip-outs around your renovation sequence, building rules, and neighbour impact. From a single wet-room breakout to phased commercial strip-back, we aim for predictable edges, clearer sites, and communication you can follow on the ground.

Company overview
What we focus on
Our scope centres on physical breakout and removal work: wall and floor tile hacking, kitchen and bathroom strip-outs, partition and fixture dismantling, and rubble handling through to approved disposal. We align to approved drawings and typical HDB, condo MCST, or landlord requirements so the next trade inherits a site that is safe to build on—not a surprise list of snags.
- Wall & floor hacking
- Selective demolition
- Debris haulage
- Reinstatement
- Painting prep
Registration & licensing
We maintain BCA contractor registration and remain listed for HDB hacking works (HB-02-5913Z). That matters for flat owners planning resale or resale-after-reno workflows, designers who need permit-aware execution, and commercial teams with landlord checklists. Always confirm our current status on HDB’s official contractor listings alongside our details.
Who we work with
We collaborate with homeowners upgrading HDB BTOs and resale flats, condominium residents under MCST renovation rules, landed property owners opening up spaces, and commercial tenants reinstating or refreshing offices and retail units. Interior designers and main contractors use us when they need a hacking and disposal partner who reads drawings, respects sequencing, and keeps the corridor or loading route under control.

Where we operate
Based in Serangoon, we travel island-wide for site assessments, hacking, demolition, and haulage. Whether your site is an HDB block, a high-rise condo with service-lift constraints, a landed compound, or a business park unit with after-hours access, we plan protection and disposal routes for that building—not a generic template.

Compact principles for predictable renovation sites
- 01
Clarity before crowbars
Scopes and risks are discussed upfront so hacking zones, haulage assumptions, and handover expectations match your renovation programme.
- 02
Compliance as standard
Permit conditions, structural boundaries, and estate rules inform how we sequence work—so authorities, management, and neighbours see controlled execution.
- 03
Handover you can inspect
We target clean edges, cleared debris, and a walkable site so tilers, carpenters, or reinstatement teams can start without hidden rework.
On-site discipline, start to finish
Strip-outs run cleaner when protection, noise windows, and disposal routes are agreed before tools start. That mindset carries through every SB Hacking and Painting job in Singapore—whether it is a single bathroom or a phased commercial handback.
Work process
From first look to cleared site
Four practical stages SB Hacking and Painting follows for hacking and demolition in Singapore—so permits, execution, and disposal stay aligned with your renovation timeline.
Step 01
Inspection & planning
Share photos, floor plans, and your timeline. We assess scope for hacking, interior demolition, disposal, reinstatement, or painting—access, protection, and sequencing—so the quotation matches the real site.
Step 02
Permit alignment
Where HDB renovation permits, MCST approvals, or landlord checklists apply, we align the programme to those conditions before tools start. You get clear guidance on what we can execute within the approved scope.
Step 03
Controlled execution
The same direct crew that quoted arrives with protection for corridors and lifts, dust control, and disciplined work methods—whether the day is a wall strip-out, make-good reinstatement, or prep-first painting.
Step 04
Clearance & handover
Debris is staged and hauled to NEA-approved facilities so the next trade is not blocked. You receive a swept, documented handover—ready for tiling, carpentry, landlord inspection, or the final coat of paint.
