A steel arch is a quote. Flowers are not

Last updated 31 October 2026.

Wedding-arch searches return stylists, florists and marketplaces. “How much does a wedding arch cost” comes with questions about a whole wedding budget and flowers for a hundred guests. We do not publish those numbers. We do not know them. The only sentence we can stand behind is that a frame we make, to dimensions, is quote on inspection. A backdrop structure that is really a stage is the stage page, also quote on inspection, and that page does not rent truss.

If the arch is a steel rectangle or a curve with no flowers, say steel. If it is flowers on a rented frame, the stylist and the rental company are the vendors. The rental guide says we do not rent furniture. An arch is the same refusal. We will not price a “standard 2 m arch” because a blog used that height. Send the opening you have, and the venue rule for how it may stand.

Photo walls are often a frame plus a print. The frame can be the props page. The print is the printer’s rate, which we do not copy. Fabric curtains, blinds and roller shades are not the wall. A rigid panel is. A metal shopfront shutter is a shop repair, not a wedding backdrop.

Homey Furnishing Pte. Ltd. is not a professional engineer, not an architect, and not a Qualified Person. BCA’s page on works that do not need plan approval says a Qualified Person is an architect registered with the Board of Architects, or a professional engineer registered with the Professional Engineers Board, holding a valid practising certificate. We do not sign a structural calculation and we do not decide that a frame is exempt. If the work is building work, the owner asks that person. We quote the metal after the answer is clear, or we stop. A ballroom, a garden and a void deck are three permissions. The hotel or the restaurant sets weight on their floor and what may be rigged. We do not publish a point load. A void deck is the town council, and the roadshow page is the nearer fit for a tented fair. HDB’s renovation page is a flat, not a hall. A fine of up to $5,000 is HDB’s sentence when a renovation breaches those rules. It is not an exhibition overtime fee, and we do not publish one. An HDB function room is not a hall at Expo. Do not mix the manuals.

SCDF says proposed fire safety works are submitted by Qualified Persons. An arch that blocks an exit or a fire door is refused even if the photo looked symmetrical. We do not sign that plan. Outdoor wind is a reason to ask how the frame is weighted. We will not invent a wind speed it “survives”.

A small plinth that is a carton is S$50 to S$80 only when it is small. A welcome sign that is only a mounted panel is the signage pages if it is a shop-style mount, or quote on inspection if we are making the stand. Do not fold the arch, the flowers and the sign into one number and call it décor.

Suntec and the exhibition halls are the wrong manual for a dinner, unless the dinner is inside that hall. If it is, send that manual. Suntec’s floor plans are not a licence to screw an arch to a ballroom floor.

Weight is the part couples forget. A frame that stands because a person holds it during photos will not stand during dinner. Say whether it is weighted, clamped to a stage that already exists, or fixed to a floor the venue has allowed. A stage that already exists is the stage page. We will not add a hidden base that the venue has not seen. Send a photo of the floor: tile, timber, grass, or a deck. Grass changes the foot. A deck changes who owns the screw. The quote names the foot. It does not name a flower.

Homey Furnishing Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 202018148K), 27 Mandai Estate, #06-10 Innovation Place, Singapore 729931, invoices permit-exempt furniture assembly and repair. V On Construction Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 201611708H), on the HDB Directory of Renovation Contractors, invoices an HDB renovation permit when the work is a new layout, hacking, or a built-in strip-out. Homey Furnishing is not a removal company and does not publish a truck rate.

Curtains, blinds and roller shades are not part of this booking. Fabric window treatments are a different product, and these pages do not quote them.

Look at the piece in the room. Do not drag a tall wardrobe across a wet floor to test it.

1. Say steel frame, not “the wedding”.
2. Ask the venue what may be fixed or only weighted.
3. Keep flowers off the quote.
4. Mark exits.
5. Expect a quote. No standard height.

The building changes the permission and the disposal path. It does not invent a second price.

A search that asks for the typical wedding budget, the flowers for a hundred guests, or how big an arch should be is a planning question for the couple and the stylist. We will not invent those figures to look helpful. Send the frame size you have already agreed with the venue.

Reuse next month is the storage note. We do not keep the arch unless that was written, and we do not publish a storage fee.

How you're charged

A furniture job that already has a sentence on HomeySG uses that sentence. Nothing in this table is a fuel surcharge, and the handyman hour is not added on top of a band unless the written scope says so. IKEA publishes its own checkout fee. That percentage is not a HomeySG band.

Who is allowed to do the work

The permit guide on this site already splits hardware from a renovation. A cabinet hinge, a gas strut and a drawer runner do not need an HDB renovation permit when the layout stays. A new kitchen or bathroom layout, hacking, or removing a wall does. Fines for unauthorised work are already written there as up to S$5,000. Homey Furnishing does not sign the permit invoice.

• Flat-pack assembly uses the furniture assembly catalogue. Tall units are wall-anchored on that visit. A separate anti-tip price is not printed, except the child-gate and anti-tip bundle at S$180 to S$420 when that bundle is the job.
• A built-in that has to come off the wall can become a strip-out. That is V On Construction if the flat is HDB and the work needs a permit. A loose shelf inside a carcass is not a strip-out.
• Town councils collect some bulky loose items on their own rules. We are not the collector, and we do not publish their fee.
• A new cable inside a wardrobe is an electrician. Assembly does not include a new circuit.
• Do not anchor into a household shelter wall. The permit guide already keeps TV brackets and shelves off that wall.
• A hollow partition or a false ceiling is a poor anchor for a tall wardrobe. If the fixing cannot reach structure, the visit stops.
• Active termites are not painted over. Skirting and door-frame replacement after damage uses the termite page bands. We do not claim to be the pest-control operator.
• Curtains, blinds and roller shades are not quoted here.

Ways to keep the bill smaller

• Photograph every piece before a carpenter is booked. A hinge visit is not a new kitchen.
• Put the flat-pack in the room where it will stand. Carrying a built wardrobe down an HDB corridor is a second job.
• If the drawer only sticks, use the published slide row. A new carcass is the cabinet page, and only when the board is swollen.
• Book the town council bulky slot before you pay anyone to truck a loose sofa. Many councils collect a limited number of loose items. Built-ins are usually excluded.
• Ask the venue what may be weighted or screwed before you design an arch that only stands if it is screwed.

The frame is quote on inspection. Flowers, budgets and rental arches are not rows.

Anything not in that table is quote on inspection.

WhatsApp the photos to +65 8561 0630. The reply uses a band already printed on HomeySG, or it says quote on inspection.
