Reinstatement work in Singapore involves restoring a property, office, commercial, residential, or industrial, to its original condition as specified in the lease agreement or by the landlord.
This typically includes dismantling partitions, removing fixtures, repairing flooring and ceilings, repainting, and ensuring full compliance with building management reinstatement guidelines.

Ideally, you should begin planning at least 2 to 3 months before your lease ends.
This gives ample time for site surveys, quotation approvals, permit applications, and the actual execution, avoiding unnecessary penalties for late handovers.

Reinstatement timelines depend on the size and complexity of the space:

• Small offices or retail units: 5–10 working days

• Medium to large offices or showrooms: 10–20 working days

• Warehouses and industrial spaces: 15–30 working days

We provide a detailed reinstatement project schedule during quotation so you always know what to expect.

Several factors influence reinstatement costs:

• Size of the property

• Complexity of dismantling works

• Special materials (e.g., marble floors, custom fixtures)

• Location and building reinstatement compliance requirements

• Permit and waste disposal fees

At 18CD, we offer transparent, itemised quotations so you see exactly where your investment goes.

Yes.
We manage all necessary approvals, including:

• RAMS (Risk Assessment & Method Statement) submissions

• Noise and dust control plans

• Work permits from building management reinstatement offices

This ensures smooth project execution without administrative headaches for you.

Absolutely.
Many landlords, especially in commercial or CBD reinstatement projects, restrict noisy works to off-peak hours (evenings, weekends, or public holidays).
Our team is fully equipped to accommodate these schedules to ensure compliance and minimise disruption.

While minor cosmetic touch-ups might seem manageable, full reinstatement typically requires:

• Compliance with strict landlord reinstatement guidelines Singapore

• Safe dismantling of electrical, mechanical, and plumbing systems

• Proper waste disposal via NEA-approved reinstatement channels

A DIY approach often results in failed inspections, withheld deposits, or additional costs.
Hiring a professional reinstatement contractor like 18CD saves you time, money, and risk.

If reinstatement work does not meet the lease's handover conditions, you risk:

• Losing part or all of your security deposit

• Being charged for additional remedial works

• Facing legal disputes with the landlord

At 18CD, we conduct internal QA inspections before formal landlord inspections to ensure it full compliance and a smooth handover compliance.

Yes, and we prioritise it.
All waste materials (e.g., fixtures, fittings, construction debris) are sorted, recycled, or responsibly disposed of through NEA-licensed reinstatement waste vendors.
Choosing 18CD means your reinstatement project supports environmental responsibility while meeting all legal requirements.
