Parquet Repair in Central Singapore (Loose, Hollow & Popped Pieces)

Older parquet is laid on adhesive over a cement screed. Over decades, that glue lets go, so pieces sound hollow, lift at the edges or pop up after rain. We lift the loose pieces, clean the base, re-glue them and replace any that are cracked or rotten.

How a job works

  1. WhatsApp us 3 or 4 photos of the floor, including a close-up and any damaged spots, plus your block or condo and the rooms you want done.
  2. Get a price. We reply with an estimate the same day, or visit within 1 to 3 days to measure and tap-test.
  3. Book a date. Jobs usually start 3 to 7 days after you confirm.
  4. We sand, fill and varnish, with dust extraction and doors taped off.
  5. Inspect together and pay by PayNow or bank transfer once you're happy.

Before we arrive

  • Clear small items, rugs and anything fragile from the rooms.
  • Tell us if you need help moving beds or wardrobes.
  • Let us know about any leaks, termite history or areas that sound hollow.
  • Check your condo's renovation rules: permit, lift booking and working hours.
  • Keep pets and children out of the rooms during sanding and drying.

Aftercare

Repaired pieces will look cleaner than the rest of the floor until the whole room is sanded and varnished. Many customers book repair and polishing together.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my parquet popping up?

Usually the adhesive has aged, or moisture has got under the floor from a leak, a window or the bathroom. Timber swells when wet and pushes pieces up.

Can you match my old parquet?

We carry common species such as teak, nyatoh and merbau. For rare or very old timber we try to salvage pieces from inside wardrobes or under fixed furniture.

Do I need to polish after repair?

It's optional, but polishing the room afterwards makes the repaired pieces blend in.
