Renovating a home should be one of life’s most exciting journeys. For many Singapore homeowners, though, placing that first deposit often feels like the riskiest step. Stories of firms shutting down overnight or designers disappearing have made too many people wary of committing their hard-earned savings.
At SIXiDES, we believe peace of mind should be part of the package. Which is why we are preparing to launch the SIXiDES Preferred Partner Safeguard.
What is the SIXiDES Preferred Partner Safeguard?
The SIXiDES Preferred Partner Safeguard is a new homeowner protection initiative that will soon be available exclusively through SIXiDES Preferred Partners.
It is designed to give you greater confidence when placing your renovation deposit. In situations where a firm becomes uncontactable or is unable to continue with your project, the Safeguard is set to provide coverage on part of your initial payment, with protection of up to S$50,000.
While full details will be shared closer to launch, the aim is clear: when you choose a Preferred Partner through SIXiDES, your deposit comes with an added layer of assurance.
Why it matters
Placing a renovation deposit is often the most nerve-racking step for homeowners. It is a moment filled with excitement, but also with worry. What if the firm disappears before work even begins?
The SIXiDES Preferred Partner Safeguard is designed to ease that worry. By tying protection to the SIXiDES Preferred Partner network, it builds on a framework of trust we have already established through tools like EQuote and Find My ID.
Together, these measures turn renovation from a leap of faith into a journey supported by accountability.
How it may work
When the Safeguard is introduced, homeowners who engage a Preferred Partner through SIXiDES will be able to opt in before signing their renovation contract. Should unforeseen issues arise, homeowner can expect a process where claims are reviewed and deposits may be reimbursed, with coverage of up to 50% of the initial deposit, capped at S$50,000.
The goal is simple: to give homeowners the confidence that their money is protected as they take the first step into their renovation journey.
A step towards safer renovation
The Safeguard is part of a wider line-up of initiatives that place homeowners at the center of what we do. From H.I.V.E to ID Pop-Up, from Sixides Verified to the upcoming SIXiDES Preferred Partner Safeguard, every effort is built on the same belief: that renovating your home should feel inspiring, not intimidating.
