How long does it take HDB to approve renovation permit?

My contractor says it takes 10 days.

We've the key to our new house now, but contractor has not submitted the form to HDB yet.

We're urgent but he's taking his own sweet time.

Is it normal for all contractors to be like tat?

Anything that hdb will worry that you will cause damage to their structure, I supposed. Did your id say anything about need special chop? For example, I got a special kerb between kitchen and service balcony that will cost me $600 to remove cos need to get approval. $600 for that chop! Got those metal strips inside. My id say that one take 10 days. Dunno real or not. I left that alone.

Depends. Normal hacking of flooring and retiling...3 days

If more complicated like hack wall, tilt door, hack door frame...it is 5-10 days depending on their workload
