What a toilet renovation involves
Most leaking toilets fail because old waterproofing was tiled over instead of redone. We strip back to the slab and rebuild the wet area the right way.
- Hacking and waterproofing: remove old tiles, apply a fresh waterproof membrane and water-test before tiling.
- Tiling: floor and wall tiling with correct drainage falls so water runs to the trap, not the doorway.
- Plumbing: relocate or replace concealed pipes, WC, basin, mixer and shower set.
- Electrical: water heater point, exhaust fan and lighting wired by an EMA-licensed electrician.
Bathroom renovation packages and cost
We offer fixed bathroom renovation packages so the price is set before tiling begins. Bathroom renovation cost in Singapore depends mainly on tile selection, whether pipes are being moved and the fixtures you choose. The quote is itemised, and our published price guide shows typical rates up front.
Common Singapore toilet problems we fix
If your bathroom shows any of these, it usually needs more than a cosmetic re-tile.
- Damp patches on the wall behind the toilet, a sign the membrane has failed.
- Pooling water that does not reach the floor trap, meaning the falls are wrong.
- Loose or hollow-sounding tiles that let water seep underneath.
Frequently asked questions
How much does bathroom renovation cost in Singapore?
A standard HDB toilet renovation typically runs in the mid four figures per toilet, more if pipes are relocated or premium fixtures are used. Tiling and waterproofing are the main cost drivers. We itemise every line so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Do you offer a toilet renovation package?
Yes. Our fixed toilet renovation packages cover hacking, waterproofing, tiling, plumbing and basic electrical, so you get one clear price for the whole wet area.
How long does a toilet renovation take?
A single HDB toilet takes about 1.5 to 2.5 weeks, including time for the waterproofing to cure and be water-tested before tiling. Rushing the cure is the main cause of future leaks, so we do not skip it.
Do I need to redo waterproofing during a bathroom renovation?
If you are hacking the floor or walls, yes. Tiling over old, failed membrane is the most common reason bathrooms leak again within a year. We always re-membrane and water-test.
