A frame we make is not a carton desk
Hairpin legs, a table frame or a bench base that we fabricate is quote on inspection. A motorised desk that arrives as a carton is S$140 to S$260 to assemble. Homey Furnishing is not a professional engineer. We do not publish a price per leg.

How it works
- 1
Send one photo of each piece, the block, and whether the home is HDB, condo or landed.
- 2
We match a band already printed on HomeySG, or we say quote on inspection.
- 3
A layout change, hacking, or a built-in strip-out is named as V On Construction. A truck is not included.
- 4
You confirm the scope before anyone comes. Curtains, blinds and roller shades stay off the booking.
What this job actually is
Furniture-leg searches return table shops and comfort brands. This page is the steel or aluminium we make for a top you already have, or a frame that is not in a carton. It is quote on inspection. We do not publish a price per leg, per metre of tube, or a “hairpin style” surcharge.
Cartons stay on their rows. A small item is S$50 to S$80. A wardrobe is S$100 to S$650. A motorised standing desk with monitor arms is S$140 to S$260. Moving that desk is S$180 to S$320 on the desk page. If you bought those, book assembly. If the top is a slab and the base does not exist, this is the quote. A generic hinge from S$38 is a cabinet door. It is not a leg.
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 frame that becomes a mezzanine, a loft bed that is really a new floor, or a rail people lean on is not a furniture leg. Those are the mezzanine, attic and stair pages, and a Qualified Person where the work is building work. We will not call a platform a table to avoid that question. HDB’s renovation page is the flat. A fine of up to $5,000 is HDB’s sentence when a renovation breaches those rules. V On Construction invoices an HDB permit when the work needs one. Homey Furnishing does not.
Anchors for a tall piece go to structure. A household shelter wall is refused. Clause 7.2 is the home rule. A hollow partition stops the visit. CNC cutting of a bracket is not a machine-hour we publish. The sheet-metal page already refuses a pierce rate. If the job is only a sheet bracket, use that page. If it is a furniture base, use this one.
Send the top’s length, depth and thickness, and how many people sit at it. We do not publish a safe span from a wood species we have not seen. Outdoor legs follow the materials note: no rust-proof claim, powder coat inside the quote if you ask for it, no micron price.
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.
What to do first
Look at the piece in the room. Do not drag a tall wardrobe across a wet floor to test it.
- Say carton or a base we must make.
- Measure the top.
- Do not send a hinge price as a leg price.
- Keep shelter walls clear.
- Expect a quote.
| What you see | Safe check | Stop |
|---|---|---|
| Motorised desk in a carton | Assembly | S$140 to S$260 |
| New steel legs or frame | This quote | quote on inspection |
| Cabinet door sags | Hinge | From S$38 |
| New floor or a loft that is a floor | Qualified Person | Not a furniture extra |
HDB, condo and landed
The building changes the permission and the disposal path. It does not invent a second price.
| Question | HDB | Condo | Landed |
|---|---|---|---|
| HDB | Assembly rows if it is a carton. | A new frame is a quote. | Shelter walls are refused. |
| Condo | MCST if it is noisy or fixed to structure they control. | Same quote. | The lift is your measuring problem. |
| Landed | A long table is still a quote. | A stair rail is the stair page. | We are not the Qualified Person. |
Tops we did not make
Stone, glass and a live-edge slab each need the thickness in the photo. We will not tap a thread into a top that chips. If the top is quartz, the stone page’s cutout row is S$250 to S$550 for a hob or sink opening, not for a table leg.
A reception counter that is a whole desk for a lobby is the reception page. A single bench in a flat is this page. Say which one.
How you're charged
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.
| Charge | What it covers | 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Published furniture band | The photo matches a row already on a furniture page | That row |
| Bed frame assembly | The bed row on the furniture assembly page | S$80 to S$150 |
| Wardrobe assembly | The wardrobe row, confirmed from photos | S$100 to S$650 |
| Cabinet door alignment | The hinge-adjustment visit on cabinet repair | S$50 to S$100 |
| Soft-close slides, 1 to 3 drawers | The drawer-runner page | S$110 to S$220 |
| Dining chair seats, 4 to 6 | Seat re-upholstery, not a new sofa | S$240 to S$480 |
| Custom carpentry, a truck, a full sofa re-cover, or rattan binding | No catalogue row for that product | quote on inspection |
Who may do the work
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
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.
- Put the top you already own in the photo, with a tape on the span.

Price, or quote on inspection
Carton assembly has rows. A frame we make does not.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much are custom metal table legs?
Quote on inspection. A carton desk is S$140 to S$260 only when that is the product you bought.
Are you a professional engineer?
No. Homey Furnishing is not a professional engineer and not a Qualified Person. A furniture frame is not a structural stamp.
Can you CNC the brackets?
We do not publish a machine hour. Sheet brackets are the sheet-metal page. A furniture base is this quote.
Will the legs rust outdoors?
We do not publish a never-rust claim. Coatings are inside the quote or they are the plant’s tariff.
Is a hinge the same fitting?
No. A generic hinge from S$38 is a cabinet door.
