Facade, Rebuild & Reconstruction in Penang
Rebuild. Restructure. Redefine.

We redesign homes and buildings from structure to styling. CIDB G5 authority for whole-house rebuilds, facade reconstruction and major structural alterations up to RM5 million.

Accredited

Accredited for structural complexity

Rebuilds and facade reconstruction are construction work, not decoration. These certifications are what legally and technically permit us to do it.

CIDB G5

Grade G5 contractor licence, authorising building and structural construction valued up to RM5,000,000.

ISO 9001:2015

Standardised engineering and inspection procedures across demolition, structure and finishing.

ISO 27001

Architectural drawings, structural calculations and site documentation held under audited information security.

The Legno Standard

We re-architect the bones, not just the surface

Others simply decorate. We re-architect. From an old house to a brand-new structure, we cover design, engineering, council submission and construction, so the building that comes back is genuinely different rather than resurfaced.

Structural authority, creative freedom

CIDB G5 certification legally and technically authorises us to undertake complex structural modifications, extensions and load-bearing alterations up to RM5 million in project value. For any project involving structural reconstruction, partial expansion or major architectural reconfiguration, engaging a G5 contractor is not optional.

Common Questions

Rebuild and reconstruction questions, answered

Licensing, approvals, scope and what structural work actually involves.

G5 authorises construction works valued up to RM5 million. Practically it means we can legally carry out load-bearing alterations, whole-house demolition and rebuilds, extensions and facade reconstruction. G1 to G3 contractors are capped far lower and are not appropriate for structural work.

Yes. We cover demolition, structural design, engineering, council submission and construction. Several completed projects started as an old house or empty land and finished as a new three-storey residence.

Yes. MBPP and MBSP submissions are prepared and managed in-house, including the drawings and structural documentation approvals require.

It depends on scope, approvals and structural complexity. A schedule is agreed at quotation stage and tracked through our ISO 9001 inspection framework. Council approval timelines are the most variable element and we flag them early.

No. Facade reconstruction typically involves structural reinforcement, new openings and weatherproofing as well as cladding and finishes, which is why it sits under our G5 licence rather than general renovation.
