Demo Works
What Are Demo Works in Singapore?
Understand what demo works usually include, what JBC needs to review first, and why site condition and approvals matter before hacking or dismantling works begin.
Short answer
Demo works are the controlled removal and preparation works needed before the next trade can proceed. In Singapore, this may include dismantling cabinets, hacking selected finishes, removing fixtures, protecting floors and clearing debris.
JBC focuses on demo works, hacking works, dismantling works, site protection and site clearing. Structural removal is not treated as a normal service; wall type, management rules and required approvals must be checked before works proceed.

What clients should send by WhatsApp
Photos matter because demo works are site-specific. A short message is helpful, but wide photos, close-ups and access details allow JBC to understand the actual work area before advising the next step.

- Wide photos of the room or work area
- Close-up photos of what needs to be removed
- Photos of nearby floor, wall, door and access areas
- Lift, corridor or loading access if relevant
What affects scope, timing and cost
Demo works cost and timing can change depending on access, debris quantity, protection needs, work hours, management rules and whether approval or technical review is needed before hacking works.
Requirements depend on property type, wall type, site condition, management rules and required approvals where applicable. Where approval or technical review is required, the necessary checks should be completed before works proceed.
