Licences and permits
There is no single roofer licence. Workers need a Work-at-Height certificate approved by the Ministry of Manpower, and a company doing building work needs a builder's licence from the Building and Construction Authority. Licence classes have minimum paid-up capital, for example S$25,000 for a specialist builder licence. Some roofing projects also need BCA approval, depending on the scope of work, so ask who applies for any permit and what it costs.
Season and weather
Singapore is tropical: hot all year, with a wet and a dry season instead of winter and summer. Heavy rain stops roof work and shows leaks, so book a leak repair as soon as you see water, and plan a replacement for a drier spell. Work at height is slower in rain, so ask the crew how they handle wet weather.
What to put in the request
Name the property type, such as a landed house, the site address and the roofing material you have or want. Describe the work: repair, replacement or extension, and its scope. State the employment type you want, the pay or budget, and any accommodation needs if the job requires workers to stay on site. Say whether the work is at height.
BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the job in your own words in the chat and add a photo of the roof if you have one. The AI asks for missing details, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Singapore, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, and your contacts stay hidden. See construction and finishing works or create a request.
