Hacking is the noisy first step of most renovations: tiles, walls and old carpentry come out before anything new goes in. Some contractors do only this work, while others offer it alongside renovation or repairs. This guide covers nine Singapore companies whose own websites list hacking, demolition, dismantling or reinstatement for homes and shops. Each entry sums up the work the company says it does, the property types it names and how to ask for a quote. Claims about licences and approvals are the companies' own statements, so compare two or three written quotes and ask for paperwork before work starts.

1. Hackaton

Hackaton presents itself as a hacking, demolition and reinstatement contractor for residential and commercial projects, and its home page invites visitors to WhatsApp for a site assessment. The services it lists are hacking of walls, tiles, flooring and built-in structures, dismantling of wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, doors and sanitary ware, and office or shop reinstatement so premises can be handed back to a landlord. Its enquiry form asks you to say whether the site is an HDB flat, condominium, landed home or commercial unit. Testimonials on the site mention a hostel hacking job and a commercial renovation with a short timeline. Enquiries go through WhatsApp, email or the form on its website. Its pitch stresses fast quotations and debris disposal, as the site describes it.

2. Prime Hackers

Prime Hackers describes itself as a specialist hacking and demolition contractor, and its site says it has operated since 2015. It lists hacking, reinstatement, dismantling and disposal, demolition, coring works, and plastering and painting, and says it takes jobs from small HDB hacking to larger office reinstatement. Its FAQ states that it helps obtain permits and approvals from building management and authorities before work begins, and that it is an HDB licensed renovation contractor and BCA approved demolition contractor, which are the company's own statements. Reinstatement for retail and commercial units ahead of handover has its own service page, so shop tenants may find it a useful starting point. The site is short and clear, with a contact form and chat button for enquiries.

3. Singapore Demolition Hackers N Removals

Singapore Demolition Hackers N Removals markets building demolition and reinstatement services, with a free on-site quotation offered through its website. The service list on its home page covers hacking, dismantling, disposal, touch-up and painting works, general cleaning, hoarding board installation, PE endorsement and reinstatement contracting. The company says it holds bizSAFE Level 3, BCA and Singapore Contractors Association certifications, which are its own statements and worth confirming at quotation stage. The site describes serving commercial and industrial clients, so it suits shop owners, offices and landlords needing end-of-lease clearance. Contact details, a quick enquiry form and a past-projects page are published on the site. Its blog and past-projects pages show the sort of work it takes on.

4. Leong Yik Engineering & Contractor

Leong Yik is a general building and renovation contractor, and its demolition, hacking, dismantling and disposal page is one of several service pages alongside screeding, floor tiling, roof leakage repair and minor works. The page lists wall hacking for reconfiguring a space, dismantling of kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, false ceilings and partitions, full or partial demolition, and debris removal. The company calls itself an HDB-approved hacking contractor with bizSAFE Star accreditation, which are its own statements and should be verified. It says it handles both residential and commercial work, and mentions industrial dismantling. A site quote is requested through the contact page or WhatsApp link on its website. Its home page also lists screeding, tiling and MEP services, useful if follow-on works are planned.

5. Si Empowers

Si Empowers is a handyman and renovation company, and its hacking and demolition page covers hacking, demolition, dismantling, disposal and reinstatement for HDB flats, condominiums, landed houses, offices, retail shops and shophouses. The page describes kitchen cabinet hacking, false ceiling removal, partition wall demolition, tile and floor hacking, bathroom strip-out, built-in carpentry removal and office reinstatement. It says debris disposal is included and that site surveys can usually be scheduled within the same week, which is the company's own claim. Because it also lists painting, repairs and other renovation services, it may suit owners who want hacking and follow-on works handled by one team. Quotes are requested by WhatsApp or phone, and an email address is also listed.

6. RS Aluminium & Glassdoor

RS Aluminium & Glassdoor is an aluminium and glass company that also runs a hacking, demolition and reinstatement service through its rsdemolition.com site. That site lists kitchen cabinet, countertop and sink hacking, bathroom strip-out, wall and floor tile removal, parquet and vinyl stripping, false ceiling and partition removal, and full-unit hacking for HDB flats, condominiums, landed homes, offices, shops and F&B units. It states that every job begins with a free site survey, that debris is disposed of at NEA-licensed sites, and that it submits HDB permits on the customer's behalf; these are the company's own statements. Enquiries are taken by WhatsApp, phone or email. The site presents hacking as its own service, with process, permits and FAQ sections.

7. SG Demolition Contractor

SG Demolition Contractor runs a dedicated site for demolition and hacking, with separate pages for demolition and hacking, minor hacking, haulage and disposal, and reinstatement. It describes wall and floor hacking, kitchen cabinet and wardrobe dismantling, and strip-outs for HDB, condominium, landed and commercial units, and says it checks whether a wall is load-bearing before hacking. For landed and structural work it says it coordinates with the customer's engineer. The site says it is BCA-registered with NEA-licensed disposal and has more than 25 years in business; these are the company's own statements. A free on-site assessment can be requested by phone, WhatsApp or email. Floor hacking is described as taking tiles and screed down to the level new flooring needs.

8. 9 Reno

9 Reno calls itself a repair specialist contractor, and its hacking page covers a range of work for offices, shops and houses. It lists dismantling or relocation of drywall partitions, hacking of non-structural block walls with an option to include PE submission and endorsement, removal of floor and wall tiles, and removal of built-in fixtures from walls or ceilings. It also mentions cutting and removal of metal structure and heavy lifting. A separate reinstatement section covers office and retail shop handback work for landlords. The site says enquiries are answered within two working days and publishes a company email, phone numbers and a Pioneer-area office address. It suits tenants and owners with larger or more technical clearance jobs.

9. Speedy Decor

Speedy Decor is a renovation and interior company with a service page for hacking contractors, aimed at owners reconfiguring a home or office. The page says it can hack down old toilets, kitchens and carpentry in a flat being sold or fully renovated, and take out non-load-bearing walls, flooring and wall tiles to open up a layout or let in more light. It says waste is taken to approved dumping grounds after the job. As the company also sells renovation services and runs a project-start flow on its site, it may appeal to people who want hacking arranged as the first stage of a larger renovation. Contact options include email and several phone lines listed on the site.

How to choose

  • Ask each company to confirm in writing what the quote covers: which walls, floors and fixtures come out, whether debris removal and lorry trips are included, and who clears lifts and corridors afterwards. Vague scopes are the most common reason final bills differ from quotes.
  • Keep wall removal and structural changes separate from simple tile and carpentry removal. For anything beyond non-structural work, ask what approvals the company holds for the job, request the paperwork, and check who submits it and how long that takes. Do not assume a quote covers permits unless it says so.
  • Request a site visit before accepting a figure. Access, floor level, the lift, tile type, wall thickness and the amount of debris all change the work, so a quote given without seeing the unit may not hold once the team arrives. If you cannot be present, send photos and measurements.
  • Shops and offices handing back premises should send the tenancy reinstatement clause to the contractor. Ask whether the company has done similar landlord handovers, how it handles building management rules on working hours, and who protects common areas. Ask for a written handover checklist so you know what restoration the landlord expects.
  • Compare two or three written quotes on scope rather than the headline number, and ask about dust, noise and neighbour notice arrangements. Check recent reviews and photos of past work, and keep a record of messages in case a dispute arises. Written cancellation and rescheduling terms are also worth asking about.
