Parquet Sanding & Varnishing in Central Singapore

Full parquet polishing takes the floor back to bare timber. We sand off the old varnish, scratches and grey patches, fill gaps, then lay a sealer and two coats of polyurethane varnish. The result looks like a new floor, at a fraction of the cost of replacing it.

How a job works

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.

Aftercare

Sweep or vacuum daily, wipe with a damp (not wet) mop, and put felt pads under chair legs. Most floors need a light recoat every 3 to 5 years and a full sanding only when the varnish has worn through.

Frequently asked questions

How much does full sanding cost?

Full sanding is quoted after we inspect the floor, because it depends on condition, area and repairs. If your floor only needs a polish (buffing plus a fresh coat), that starts from $350 for a single bedroom.

How long does it take?

A single bedroom takes about a day. Three bedrooms usually take 2 days. You can walk on the floor in socks about 12 to 24 hours after the last coat.

Is sanding very dusty?

Our sanders are connected to dust extractors, and we vacuum between passes. Some fine dust is normal, so we tape off doors and cover built-in furniture.

Can you do only one room?

Yes. Polishing a single bedroom starts from $350.

Oil-based or water-based varnish?

Oil-based PU gives a warm amber tone and is very hard-wearing. Water-based PU stays clearer, smells much less and dries faster. See our guide comparing the two.
