Renovating in Hougang

What flats in Hougang typically need

Hougang has mostly 4- and 5-room flats, with the older Hougang and Kovan blocks sitting alongside newer developments toward Buangkok.

Hougang jobs range from full resale renovations in the older Upper Serangoon blocks — rewiring, re-piping, hacking — to lighter carpentry-and-finishes packages in the newer flats near Buangkok.

Getting there is straightforward: Hougang is served by the North East Line (Hougang, Kovan) and the Hougang LRT, so booking a site visit and running the works day to day is easy for our team. We cover Hougang Central, Kovan, Upper Serangoon and Buangkok, and also work in nearby Sengkang, Serangoon, Ang Mo Kio and Punggol.
