Documents Required

  • Title deed (or tenancy contract plus landlord NOC)

  • Contractor documents

Key Technical Rules

  • Building NOC first: the building management or owners association approves the works.
  • Structure untouched without a check: columns, beams and structural walls are never altered without an engineer.
  • Balcony and facade changes: usually need developer approval.
  • Wet areas: waterproofing and drainage are protected during the works.
  • Authority permit: for structural or major works.

JBR Contractor Requirements — FAQs

Can I use any licensed contractor for JBR renovations?

Your contractor needs a valid trade license and insurance, plus registration with community management for JBR access.

What are typical approved working hours?

Working hours vary by community policy — we confirm current windows for your specific project.

What happens if my contractor works outside approved hours?

This can result in a stop-work notice and may affect your security deposit.

Do I need to register my contractor separately from the DHCM NOC application?

Yes — contractor access registration is typically a separate step from the renovation approval itself.

Can Structural Solutions provide a contractor familiar with JBR requirements?

Yes — we work with contractors experienced specifically in JBR community compliance.
