Noob Question: Do You Need A Permit To Lay Tiles For Bto?

Featured Replies

Hi all,

I have gotten my keys and will be starting renovation soon.

As I was looking at HDB website under renovation works and I saw this:

Laying of floor finishes on bare (rough) concrete surface provided by HDB.

No permit required.

Floor finishes must be laid on bare (rough) concrete surface provided by HDB

There must not have an existing cement screed originally provided by HDB

Total thickness of floor finishes and screed must not exceed 50 mm.

Does that mean that I do not need a permit to start laying my tiles? I did not opt for any flooring for my flat.

Many thanks!

Lay yourself no need, if no one complaint. The lift swee swee, floor clean clean, etc.

If by contractor, he sure advise to get one.
