Raised Platform

Featured Replies

New to the forum. :)

Can I find out what is the cost I'm looking at if I wanna do a raised platform area at my dining area? I'm looking at laminates.

Is it permissible by HDB? What is the cost I should be budgeting for?

Raised platform at dining? woo~ you've got any dimensions you're looking at? Wellz it permissible by HDB but the cost will depend on the material you want to use and size of your platform :)

Take note whether the platform is near any windows. The platform cannot be less than 1m from top of platform to window sill. If the platform is not against windows, then no limit (although recommended in hdb website is 2.4m to the ceiling)

Big thanks for the replies!

Oops dear me. It's about 3.2m by 3.75m. And yes it's beside a corridor window. Which portion is the sill?

Any indicative cost? On a tight budget.. Will drop the idea if it's prohibitively expensive.

Just a visual example-

I don't mind using cheaper materials and a laminate!

A few ID quote me a simple raise platform, about 6 inches high, 8 by 9 feet. With laminates same as my flooring. Price ranges 750 to 900.

Dunno if it helps. But according to your picture, it sort of look similar.

as long you keep a safe height of 1m away from the window & not less than 2.4m from false ceiling is permitted by HDB. if not they will ask you to remove it.
