A lobby counter is quote on inspection

Reception-counter searches return office-furniture dealers and fit-out firms. This page is the counter we fabricate for a lobby that already exists: the carcass, the top and the metal frame if the drawing has one. It is quote on inspection. We do not publish a price per metre or a “organic curve” rate.

A workstation you bought in a carton is not this counter. Assembly of a motorised desk is S$140 to S$260. Ten to thirty of them are S$580 to S$1,800 on the desk page when that rollout matches. A single metal leg set is the leg page. A shop gondola is the shop shelving page. Say lobby counter if that is the piece.

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 counter that hides an exit, blocks a fire door, or becomes a room is refused. SCDF says proposed fire safety works are submitted by Qualified Persons. We do not file that plan. 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. An office in a condo or a shophouse still needs the landlord’s consent. We do not apply for a change of use.

The logo on the front is not a structural frame. Wayfinding and reception signs are the sign page. A lightbox frame we have to make is the frame page. Power for a logo light is an electrician. A socket on an existing circuit is S$55. A dedicated circuit is S$220 to S$450 when that sentence matches. Neither is the joinery.

Send the lobby width, the door swings, the ceiling height if a feature rises, and whether visitors stand or sit. We do not publish an accessible counter height as a design we stamp. If a drawing from your designer already has a height, send it. We build to that drawing or we say we cannot. Access after hours in a managed office is arranged with the building. It is not a hidden night rate. The mall overnight row is for a shop, S$380 to S$650 for one fix, and is not a lobby build.

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. Photograph both door swings.
2. Separate the sign from the counter.
3. Send power as its own line.
4. Do not block an exit.
5. Expect a quote.

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

A monitor, a card reader and a cable hole are cut only when you have measured the devices. We do not publish a grommet price as a product line. Cable management for a carton desk stays on the assembly pages.

Stone tops use the stone page when the top is quartz or sintered, not when it is a timber top on a steel frame. Say which top you mean.

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.
• Mark the door swing on a photo. A counter that hits it is the wrong length.

The counter is quote on inspection. Cartons and circuits have their own 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.
