| HDB Licensed Contractor in Singapore refers to renovation contractors officially listed in the Housing & Development Board (HDB)’s Directory of Renovation Contractors (DRC) under the Registered Renovation Contractor Scheme (RRCS). These contractors are authorized to perform renovation works in HDB flats, ensuring compliance with HDB’s strict guidelines to protect structural integrity, safety, and communal elements of public housing. Only DRC-listed contractors can legally handle renovations that require HDB permits (e.g., hacking walls, changing layouts, electrical/plumbing alterations), and homeowners must engage them for all HDB flat renovations.
Non-licensed contractors risk fines, stop-work orders, or mandatory reinstatement if caught performing unauthorized works.
