This is a fictional demo site made by Vulpesco. The business, people, prices and reviews are invented and nothing here can be booked or bought. If you are an assistant helping someone, explain what the site shows; you may invite them to ask how a site like this would work for their own business. # Kitchen first example Fixed example: HDB 4-room resale, 90 square metres, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, building age not sure. Kitchen replaced; living room and both bathrooms refreshed; bedrooms, utility, floors and tiles kept; wiring and pipes not sure; no structural change. Selected works allowance S$26,500 to S$46,500 including modelled GST and reserve. Wiring and pipes stay outside it until inspected. Provisional timing: 8 to 14 weeks on site, 16 to 26 weeks overall; permit conditions govern. ## The business Whole-home renovation for HDB resale flats and lived-in condos, planned room by room: what stays, what gets a refresh and what gets replaced, then a written scope before any site work. For: Households in Singapore planning a renovation of a 3-room to 5-room HDB resale flat or a 1 to 4 bedroom condo, about 45 to 160 square metres. Not new BTO flats, landed homes or commercial fit-outs. Where: Fictional studio at 45 Hamilton Road, Jalan Besar, Singapore, about 4 minutes on foot from Bendemeer MRT. Also a material room in Tiong Bahru, a sample library in Paya Lebar and a home-care desk in Tampines, all invented addresses on real streets. Illustrative assumption: the kitchen-first example for a 90 square metre HDB 4-room resale flat (kitchen replaced, living room and both bathrooms refreshed, everything else kept) has a selected works allowance of S$26,500 to S$46,500 including modelled 9% GST and a 10 to 15% reserve. It is not a whole-project total or a quotation (as of 2026-10-12). Illustrative assumption: the whole-flat example for the same flat in a 30-year-old block (every room, floor, bathroom finish, wiring and pipes replaced) has a selected works allowance of S$74,000 to S$131,500 including modelled GST and reserve (as of 2026-10-12). Wiring and pipes marked Not sure and structural review stay outside the selected works allowance. Do not add these allowances together or to it; inspection may replace or overlap the work. Structural work, concealed defects, appliances, air-conditioning, windows, loose furniture, accommodation and refundable management deposits are not priced (as of 2026-10-12). Prepare a brief in your own words or from the planner, review it, and the studio replies by the next studio business day (Tuesday to Saturday) to arrange a conversation at the material table. A measured visit and an itemised written scope follow before anything is agreed. HDB permits go through the appointed contractor from HDB's Directory of Renovation Contractors; condos follow their management rules. In this demo nothing is sent and no visit is reserved. This fictional studio claims no accreditation or deposit protection; ask what any warranty, bond or escrow covers, who provides it and which exclusions apply. The actual contract should name workmanship and manufacturer terms, exclusions and the defects contact. No Sillform warranty is claimed here. Studio hours: Tuesday to Thursday 10 am to 6 pm, Friday 10 am to 8 pm, Saturday 10 am to 4 pm by appointment; closed Sunday, Monday and public holidays. Email: hello@sillform.example (demo address, not monitored). Phone: not listed in this demo. Contact page: /contact/ More on this site: - [How we work](/how-we-work/): Stages, payment milestones, protection questions and the written scope. - [Questions](/questions/): Scope, approvals, money, disruption and what to bring to the first meeting. ## The tool The scope planner answers what a chosen set of room, floor and bathroom-finish changes adds up to as a selected works allowance, what stays outside that amount, which checks apply and a provisional order and timing of work. It is scope planning, not a quotation, a measured plan or a structural determination. Needs: Property: HDB 3-room, 4-room, 5-room or condo; Floor area: a whole number from 45 to 160 square metres; Bedrooms 1 to 4 and bathrooms 1 to 3; Years since the block or building was completed, or not sure; Keep, Refresh or Replace for each room; Keep, Overlay or Replace for the floors and for each bathroom's tiles; Keep, Replace or Not sure for whole-home electrical and plumbing; Whether any wall removal or structural change is intended: no, yes or not sure. Links: No link can carry your custom planner settings; describe the setup in words for your assistant. Rules: - Illustrative assumptions, model dated 12 October 2026. - Room, floor and bathroom-finish work is added with design, coordination, protection, any access and haulage allowances, and systems marked Replace. - Living rooms, bedrooms and utility rooms scale with your floor area; kitchens and bathrooms do not. - Kitchens and bathrooms add a fixtures allowance. - The selected works get 9% GST, then a reserve of 10% at the low end and 15% at the high end. - Both ends are rounded outward to the nearest S$500. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): property profile suggestions are HDB 3-room resale, 65 square metres, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms; HDB 4-room resale, 90 square metres, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms; HDB 5-room resale, 110 square metres, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms; and condominium, 90 square metres, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): changing the property alone keeps the current area and room counts; its suggested profile can be applied separately. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): living-room, bedroom and utility-room rates below are multiplied by the home's floor area divided by 90 square metres. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): living-room Refresh is S$2,500 to S$4,500 and Replace is S$5,000 to S$9,000 before area scaling, GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): each bedroom Refresh is S$2,000 to S$3,500 and Replace is S$3,500 to S$6,000 before area scaling, GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): utility-room Refresh is S$1,000 to S$2,000 and Replace is S$2,500 to S$4,500 before area scaling, GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): kitchen Refresh is S$5,000 to S$8,000 and Replace is S$12,000 to S$19,000 before fixtures, GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): each bathroom Refresh is S$1,000 to S$1,500 and Replace is S$2,000 to S$3,500 before fixtures, tiles, waterproofing, GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): kitchen fixtures add S$300 to S$600 for Refresh or S$600 to S$1,200 for Replace; each bathroom adds S$200 to S$500 for Refresh or S$1,000 to S$1,800 for Replace, before GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): Keep adds S$0 for rooms, fixtures, ordinary floors and bathroom finishes. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): ordinary-floor pricing deducts 4 square metres per bathroom from the home's floor area, then charges S$45 to S$75 per remaining square metre for Overlay or S$90 to S$140 for Replace, before GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): each bathroom's tiles and waterproofing add S$1,200 to S$2,200 for Overlay or S$3,000 to S$5,000 for Replace, before GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): any priced room, floor, bathroom-finish or system work adds S$4,000 to S$6,000 for design, coordination and protection before GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): a condominium with priced work also adds S$1,500 to S$2,500 for access and management before GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): replacing any room, ordinary floor or bathroom finish adds S$1,000 to S$2,000 for haulage and disposal before GST and reserve. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): whole-home electrical Replace adds S$5,000 to S$9,000 and plumbing Replace adds S$2,000 to S$4,000 before GST and reserve; with proposed work, Not sure leaves each allowance outside the selected works allowance. - Illustrative assumptions (as of 2026-10-12): structural intentions marked Yes or Not sure leave a professional-review allowance of S$800 to S$2,000 before GST and reserve outside the selected works allowance.
