Handyman price list: only the bands already published
Permit-exempt handyman time is S$45 an hour. A single-task call-out is S$55. There is no fuel surcharge. Job bands still apply when a page already prices that fitting. If a job is missing, the line is quote on inspection.

How it works
- 1
Send one photo per task on WhatsApp, with the block and whether the home is HDB, condo, or landed.
- 2
We match each task to a published band, or we say quote on inspection.
- 3
You confirm the scope before anyone comes. Licensed work and permit work are named, not folded into the hour.
- 4
The fitting is repaired and tested. Parts that a row does not include stay off the invoice.
What this job actually is
People search for a handyman price list because a single WhatsApp reply of “from $80” does not say whether the tap, the drill bit, the disposal or the second hour is inside it. HomeySG already prints job bands on the page that owns the job. This page collects those bands so you can see the shape of the catalogue before you send photos. It is an index, not a new rate card. A figure that is not already on a service page, a guide or a calculator in this site is not added here to make the table look complete.
The door repair page is the owner of alignment and hinge tightening at S$60 to S$120, the HDB PD toilet-door pivot at S$120 to S$220, pocket rollers at S$180 to S$380, and condo balcony bogie rollers at S$220 to S$480. A surface-mounted drop seal on a fire door is S$180 to S$450, and the leaf is not cut. Digital-lock fitting, where the fire detail allows the holes, is S$188 to S$320 for a lock you bought and S$280 to S$450 supply and fit, on the digital-lock guide. Those rows are not re-priced on the long-tail door pages. Those pages tell you which row applies, then send you back.
Plumbing bands that already exist are narrower than “a plumber.” A bidet spray, hose and brass angle valve is S$110 to S$180. A toilet auger is S$120 to S$240. An exposed cistern siphon set is S$130 to S$240. A pan collar is S$260 to S$480. A WELS bowl supplied and set on the existing outlet is S$380 to S$550. A concealed-cistern diagnostic through the flush plate is S$80 to S$120, and a valve behind that plate is S$180 to S$350. A new water point, a moved waste, or a hacked chase is a PUB licensed plumber, and the hack is a renovation permit. Those are not handyman rows and they are not given a fresh number here.
Electrical bands are the same kind of boundary. One 30mA device is S$160 to S$280 on the DB page. A dedicated appliance circuit is S$220 to S$450. A ceiling fan on a sound slab point is S$120 to S$180. A power socket on an existing circuit is S$55. A light switch with no new cable is still quote on inspection. Calling that faceplate a “new circuit” would be using the wrong band. A whole-flat rewire is not priced on this site at all.
Heaters, tiles, silicone and small carpentry follow the pages that already own them. An instant heater like-for-like on a sound 20A point is S$180 to S$450. A 15 to 30 litre storage change is S$450 to S$900. A hairline crack or water-stain repaint after the leak is fixed is S$150 to S$400 on the ceiling page. A small hole patch is S$150 to S$280. A typical HDB bathroom regrout is S$400 to S$900. A mouldy silicone zone in the defect calculator is S$80 to S$150. A first grab bar you supply is S$65 to S$80. A dishwasher bay is S$350 to S$850. If your photo does not match the sentence beside the band, do not stretch the band to fit the photo.
The hour and the call-out are not a substitute for a job that already has a sentence. The move-house calculator prices a shelf take-down and refit at a second address at S$30 to S$55, and a TV bracket the same way at S$40 to S$70. That is a two-address transfer of a fitting you already own. It is not the price of a new floating shelf, a first TV mount, or an hour of drilling. Using it as the general handyman hour would misread the calculator. The general hour is S$45, and it is not stacked on top of a band unless the written scope says so.
Homey Furnishing Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 202018148K), 27 Mandai Estate, #06-10 Innovation Place, Singapore 729931, invoices the permit-exempt visit. V On Construction Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 201611708H), on the HDB Directory of Renovation Contractors, invoices hacking, a new layout, windows that are not exempt, and the household shelter. Homey Furnishing is not a MOM-licensed employment agency and does not place helpers, nannies or caregivers.
What to do first
Match the photo to a row before you compare two companies. A row is a scope, not a slogan. “From $60” on one site and “S$60 to S$120 for hinge tightening” on this one are not the same product.
- List each task in one line: what failed, which room, HDB or condo or landed.
- Open the page named in the “where it lives” column and read the inclusions.
- If the task is in the unpriced table, expect quote on inspection rather than a guessed band.
- Send one photo per task. A wide shot and a close shot are enough for most fittings.
- Keep licensed work separate: new cables, new water points, gas, and hacking.
| What you see | Safe check | Stop |
|---|---|---|
| You were quoted one hourly rate for five different trades | Ask which published row each task uses | Do not accept a single hour that hides a plumber or an electrician |
| The quote is far below every band on this page | Check whether parts, access and disposal are excluded | A fire door or a concealed cistern is not a cheap hour |
| The job is a shelf, a drill-only visit or a closer | Those scopes are not in the catalogues below | Quote on inspection. Do not borrow the hinge band |
| Someone offers a night surcharge with no written band | This site does not publish a night fee for homes | Life safety is 995, not a surcharge |
HDB, condo and landed
The same band is not a different price because the flat is in Tampines or Woodlands. What changes is permission and access. HDB noisy work is planned on weekday daytime hours, the pattern the permit guide describes as about 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday. A condo by-law may ban Saturday noise and may hold a deposit. A landed house does not use an HDB permit, but a new sewer or a structural opening is still not a handyman visit.
Read the town council or the MCST for the block you actually live in. The Town Councils (Declaration) Order 2025 redrew several towns. Your S&CC bill is the document that names the council. This price list does not add a travel surcharge for any town.
| Question | HDB | Condo | Landed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who approves | Town Council for noisy hours. An HDB permit only if the layout or a hack changes. | MCST by-laws, lift protection, and a deposit if the by-law asks. | No HDB permit. A new sewer or a structural chase is still PUB or BCA. |
| This task | Use the row that matches the fitting. A permit is only for hacking or a layout change. | The same row. Add the MCST form if the by-law asks, not a new dollar figure. | The same row. Roof access or a scaffold is a different job and is not invented here. |
| Invoice | Permit-exempt lines stay on the Homey Furnishing invoice. | The same split. The MCST may also want the contractor named on the form. | The same split. Access equipment is not a new price unless a page already prints one. |
How you're charged
How you're charged
These four lines are the published handyman charges. A job that already has its own band uses that band. The hour is not added on top of a band unless the written scope says so. There is no fuel surcharge.
| Charge | What it covers | 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Per hour | Permit-exempt handyman time | S$45/hr |
| Minimum charge | One task on one visit | S$55 |
| Call-out | The same single-task visit. No separate trip fee | S$55 |
| Materials | Parts, unless a job row says they are included | quote on inspection |
Small, medium, and large visits
Times are planning estimates for the work itself. They are not a promise of when someone arrives.
| Size | Example tasks | Planning time |
|---|---|---|
| Small | One generic hinge, tap labour on the existing outlet, or a socket on an existing circuit | Often under an hour |
| Medium | An exposed cistern siphon, one silicone zone, or two or three small tasks on the same visit | About 1 to 3 hours |
| Large | A typical HDB bathroom regrout, a dishwasher bay, or an exposed storage-heater labour visit | Half a day or longer |
Ways to keep the bill smaller
Ways to keep the bill smaller
- Put several tasks on one visit. The S$55 call-out is one task. Extra permit-exempt time is S$45 an hour, not a second trip.
- Buy the part when the row is labour only. Tap labour is S$55. Toilet-bowl labour is S$168. Instant-heater labour is S$108 to S$260. Exposed storage-heater labour is S$188 to S$380.
- Send the photos first, so the reply can use a published band instead of a vague hour.
WhatsApp the photos to +65 8561 0630.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a handyman hourly rate on this list?
Permit-exempt handyman time is S$45 an hour. A single-task call-out is S$55. There is no fuel surcharge. A fitting that already has a job band uses that band. If none matches, the line is quote on inspection.
Why is a tap not listed at one number?
A spray, hose and brass angle valve is S$110 to S$180 on the angle-valve page. A dropped undermount sink re-mount is S$220 to S$450. A bare tap swap with no matching sentence in those pages is quote on inspection.
Which door price should I use?
Start at door repair. Hinge tightening is S$60 to S$120. Pocket, PD and balcony rollers have their own rows. A closer, a knob or a new bedroom leaf is not those rows.
Does Homey place a helper or a handyman employee for me to hire?

What if the job is not in the price table?
It is quote on inspection. Send photos. The reply will not invent a dollar figure that this site has not already published.
How do I pay?
