HDB home improvement programme (HIP)

Our block is due for the HIP. Just finished the voting and it will be carried out after CNY 2020. Will be pretty inconvenient for the 10 days without our toilets.

Updated Oct 2021: finally started on HIP

The HIP include:
  • Repair spalling concrete/ structural cracks
  • Replace waste / soil discharge stacks*
  • Replace pipe sockets with new clothes drying rack
  • Upgrade electrical load
Optional which we had opted in will be 
  • Package to upgrade existing toilet(s)/ bathroom(s)
  • New decorative door
  • New metal grille gate
Did not opt for the rubbish chute as we just upgraded ours.


Chosen the steel gate and veneer door.



Chosen the grey theme for the toilet but will like the contractor to just use white tile with no patterns on the wall (photoshopped) cos I don't like the patterned tiles

The optional items:



 Preferred some of the other scheme offered in other areas but were only offered the following 3. The blue floor tiles are nice and initially wanted that but the wall tiles look ugly... Son commented it looked like the swimming pool. The brown scheme is too dark.
