Flooring Cost FAQs – Hougang

What is the cheapest flooring option in Singapore?

Vinyl plank flooring is the most affordable option at SGD 3-8 per sqft installed. It is waterproof, easy to maintain, and can be overlaid on existing tiles without hacking.

Do I need to hack tiles before installing new flooring?

Not always. Overlay options like vinyl and laminate can be installed over existing tiles. However, for tile or marble flooring, hacking the old floor is usually necessary for a proper finish.

How long does flooring installation take?

Vinyl overlay takes 1-2 days for a standard HDB flat. Tile installation takes 3-5 days. If hacking is required, add 1-2 days for removal and levelling.

Is parquet flooring suitable for Singapore?

Engineered wood parquet performs well in Singapore's climate as it is more stable than solid wood in humid conditions. Proper acclimatisation before installation and regular maintenance are key to longevity.
