Floor and wall tiling, tile overlay, hollow and cracked tile replacement and re-grouting. Level surfaces, even joints and wet areas that drain the right way.
Tiling is where poor workmanship shows the fastest. Uneven edges catch your foot, hollow tiles crack after a few months, and a bathroom floor that slopes the wrong way leaves water standing by the door. Because tiles are meant to last for many years, getting the base and the layout right at the start matters far more than the tile itself. MK Renovation lays floor and wall tiles in kitchens, bathrooms, living areas, bedrooms, balconies and commercial spaces across Singapore. We work in HDB flats, condominiums, landed homes and offices, and we plan each job around the rules and working hours of your building so neighbours and management are not caught by surprise. On every job we prepare the base properly, set out the layout so cut tiles fall in sensible places, use levelling clips for large-format tiles and check the gradient in wet areas before grouting. Small steps like these are what separate a floor that looks good on day one from a floor that still looks good years later. We also handle tile overlay on existing floors, replacement of hollow or cracked tiles, and re-grouting to refresh tired, stained joints. If you are not sure which option suits your home, send us photos and we will explain the choices honestly, including when a smaller repair is enough. You can supply your own tiles or ask us to source them. Either way, we confirm quantities, layout and finishing details with you before work starts, protect the surrounding areas during the job and clean up before handover.

Floor tiling
New floor tiles for living rooms, bedrooms, corridors and commercial spaces. We level the base first so the finished floor is flat and comfortable to walk on.
Wall tiling
Kitchen backsplashes, bathroom walls and feature walls laid straight and plumb. Cuts around switches, pipes and windows are planned so they look neat.
Bathroom floor and wall
Complete bathroom tiling with the floor sloped correctly to the floor trap. We coordinate with waterproofing so the wet area stays dry underneath.
Tile overlay
New tiles laid over firmly bonded existing tiles, with less hacking, noise and debris. We check door clearances and floor levels before recommending it.
Hollow and cracked tile repair
Popped, loose or cracked tiles removed and replaced in a full bed of adhesive. We help you find the closest matching tile if you have no spares.
Re-grouting
Old, stained or mouldy grout raked out and renewed. It is a simple way to make a kitchen or bathroom look fresh without changing the tiles.
Balcony and outdoor tiling
Slip-resistant tiles for balconies, yards and other areas that get wet. Floors are laid with a gentle fall so rainwater runs off instead of pooling.
Skirting and edge trims
Tile skirting, edge trims and transition strips for a clean finish where floors meet walls, doors and other rooms. Exposed tile edges are protected from chipping.
The details we check on every job
We set out the tiles from the centre of the room so cut pieces end up at the edges, not in the middle where everyone sees them. Doorways, cabinets and focal walls are taken into account before the first tile goes down.
Each tile gets proper adhesive coverage underneath, with back-buttering for larger tiles. This is the main defence against hollow spots, cracking and tiles that pop up later.
Spacers and levelling clips keep grout lines straight and tile edges flush with each other. You get a floor that looks tidy and does not catch your toes or feet.
Bathroom, kitchen and balcony floors are sloped towards the floor trap so water drains away. We check the gradient before grouting, when it can still be corrected.
Freshly laid tiles are covered and kept free from foot traffic until the adhesive and grout have set. We also protect nearby fittings, cabinets and flooring during the work.
Grout haze and adhesive marks are cleaned off before we leave. We walk through the finished area with you so any small touch-ups are handled on the spot.
Not every tiling job needs the old tiles hacked out. The right method depends on the condition of the existing floor, how much floor height you can afford to lose, your building's rules and your budget. We look at the tiles, tap for hollow spots and check the levels before suggesting an approach, so you pay for the work your home actually needs.
When existing tiles are hollow, cracked in many places or the floor is uneven, the best result comes from hacking the old tiles, preparing a new screed and tiling from scratch. It takes longer and creates more noise and debris, so in HDB flats and condos we plan the hacking within permitted hours. The big advantage is a fresh, sound base. It is also the right time to fix gradients in bathrooms, renew waterproofing and reroute pipes if needed. For older homes with many problem tiles, this is usually the most reliable long-term choice.
If the existing tiles are firmly bonded and the floor is level, new tiles can be laid directly over them. Overlay saves time, cuts noise and debris, and usually costs less than full re-tiling. It does raise the floor slightly, so we check door clearances, the main door, kitchen cabinets and transitions to other rooms before recommending it. Any hollow tiles found during the check are removed and filled first. Overlay is popular for living rooms and bedrooms where the old floor is sound but dated.
Tiles that sound hollow when tapped, or that have lifted or cracked, can often be replaced individually without touching the rest of the floor. We carefully remove the affected tiles, clean the old adhesive off the base and set new ones in a full bed of adhesive. If you kept spare tiles from your renovation, we use those for a perfect match. If not, we help you find the closest match available. Dealing with a popped tile early helps stop the problem spreading to neighbouring tiles.
Dark, cracked or mouldy grout makes a clean floor look dirty, and gaps in grout can let water seep under the tiles. Re-grouting removes the old grout to a consistent depth and replaces it with fresh grout, which refreshes a kitchen or bathroom without changing the tiles. We can suggest grout colours that hide stains better in high-use areas. It is a quick, low-mess way to improve a space, especially before selling or renting out a home. Sealing can be added afterwards for extra stain resistance.
Large tiles look modern and have fewer grout lines, but they need a flat base and careful handling. Even a small dip in the floor shows up as edges that do not sit flush. We check the base with a straight edge, level it where needed, and use back-buttering and levelling clips so neighbouring tiles sit evenly. Larger tiles also need careful planning to get them into lifts and through doorways, which we sort out before delivery. The result is a clean, continuous look that suits open living and dining areas.
From base preparation to a clean floor
Send us photos on WhatsApp or arrange a site visit so we can check the area, the condition of the base and your tile choice. We take measurements and note any hollow tiles or level issues.
You receive a clear quote covering the method, materials and tile layout. Once agreed, we schedule the work around your building's renovation rules and permitted hours.
We protect the surrounding areas, prepare the base and set the tiles level with proper spacing and full adhesive coverage. Gradients in wet areas are checked as we go.
Joints are grouted once the tiles have set, then the surface is cleaned of haze and marks. We walk through the finished job with you before handover.

Often yes, if the existing tiles are firmly bonded and the floor is level. We tap-test the floor for hollow tiles and check the levels first. Overlay raises the floor slightly, so we also check door clearances and how the new floor meets other rooms. If the old floor is not sound, we will tell you honestly that full re-tiling is the better option.
A hollow sound usually means the adhesive under the tile did not fully bond, or the bond has weakened over time. Temperature changes and movement in the building can make it worse. Hollow tiles may crack or pop up, sometimes suddenly. They should be replaced in a full bed of adhesive before the problem spreads to nearby tiles.
Yes. We remove only the damaged tiles, clean the base and set new tiles in place without disturbing the rest of the floor. If you have spare tiles from your renovation, we use those for the best match. If not, we help you find the closest match available in Singapore.
Usually after about 24 hours, but it depends on the adhesive and grout used and the size of the area. We will advise you on the right waiting time for your job. Heavy furniture and appliances should wait a little longer. Until then, the tiles are kept covered and protected.
We can supply tiles for you or lay tiles you have bought yourself. If you buy your own, we help you work out the quantity, including a small allowance for cuts and spares. Keeping a few spare tiles is useful for future repairs. Just tell us your preference when you request a quote.
Yes. Water pooling is usually caused by tiles laid without the correct fall to the floor trap, or by a floor that has settled unevenly. We re-tile the floor with the right gradient so water drains properly. Where needed, we also renew the waterproofing underneath so the problem does not come back.
