What clients ask before starting
Send your floor plan and intended use if you need a project-specific answer. Commercial renovation requirements vary by premises.
Can UrbanCore handle both renovation works and submissions?
Yes. We manage the renovation and coordinate the relevant QP, PE, LEW and specialist contractors when your scope requires SCDF, JTC, electrical or other authority processes.
Does every commercial renovation require SCDF submission?
Not every project follows the same route. It depends on the existing approved plans, change of use, escape routes, fire compartments, fire protection systems and ventilation works. We review the scope and involve the appropriate QP where required.
Do you work in JTC factories and industrial buildings?
Yes. We undertake factory offices, light-industrial spaces and warehouse support areas, and coordinate fitting-out or plan consent requirements applicable to the premises.
Can you carry out LEW testing and electrical submissions?
We coordinate electrical works, testing and certification with a Licensed Electrical Worker of the appropriate class. The appointed LEW handles the regulated inspection and submission steps.
How quickly can you provide a quotation?
A preliminary discussion can start immediately. A reliable quotation normally follows a site survey and review of your floor plan, handover date, building rules and required scope.
What should I send for an initial assessment?
Send the unit address, floor plan, photos or video, intended business use, target opening or handover date, and any landlord renovation guide. WhatsApp is the fastest way to start.
