Flooring Cost in Singapore (2026)
Disclosure: the author, Peter Eng, is Project Director at Trends Interior Design Pte Ltd, which operates GetContractor.
New flooring is one of the most visible upgrades in an office, shop or home, and one of the easiest to misprice. The same 1,000 sq ft can cost a few thousand dollars in vinyl or carpet tiles, or several times that in timber, stone or microcement, before anyone talks about hacking out the old floor.
This guide puts published 2026 flooring prices in Singapore side by side: vinyl (SPC and LVT), office carpet tiles, epoxy, floor tiling, laminate, parquet and engineered timber, microcement, marble, raised floors and the cost of removing old flooring. Every figure links to the page it comes from, checked on 17 October 2026. Many sources quote HDB and condo prices, so homeowners can use the same numbers. Prices are indicative and shown as each source publishes them, not averaged. For whole fit-outs, see our office renovation cost guide and retail shop renovation cost guide.
Flooring cost in Singapore: the short answer
Published 2026 rates put supply-and-install flooring at roughly S$3–9 per sq ft for most vinyl (SPC or LVT), with premium grades up to about S$12, S$3.50–10 per sq ft for office carpet tiles (one supplier lists from S$2.60 on larger orders) and S$3–15 per sq ft for epoxy, depending on the system. Floor tiles run about S$8–18 per sq ft, engineered timber about S$9–30, solid parquet up to about S$55, and marble or natural stone S$40–70+. Removing old floor tiles adds about S$3–5 per sq ft, and screed levelling about S$1.50–5. Small jobs often carry a minimum charge.

What drives flooring cost
- Material and grade: wear layer, thickness and brand move vinyl and carpet within their bands; species and board size move timber.
- Overlay or hack: Shiok Living says SPC can overlay sound tiles in most HDB resale flats, while tiles, parquet and engineered wood need the old floor hacked first, at about S$3–5 psf.
- Subfloor condition: uneven, hollow or damp screed needs levelling or a moisture barrier before vinyl, timber or epoxy goes down.
- Pattern and layout: herringbone, chevron and diagonal layouts take longer and waste more material than straight laying.
- Size of the job: ANB notes larger offices get better rates per sq ft, while small jobs carry minimum charges (for example U Office‘s S$350 laying charge for a few boxes).
- Access and working hours: offices and malls often restrict noisy work to nights or weekends, which adds labour cost.
- Extras: skirting, transition strips, door trimming, furniture moving and debris disposal are often itemised separately.
What is usually included, and what is not
A supply-and-install rate normally covers the flooring, adhesive or underlay, and labour. Shiok Living says vinyl rates should include basic skirting, while its tile rates exclude hacking and disposal. Goodrich lists underlay, moisture barrier and self-levelling as separate items. Often charged separately:
- hacking or removing the existing floor, and debris disposal;
- screed levelling, moisture barriers and crack repair;
- skirting, nosing, transition strips and door trimming;
- furniture moving, and night or weekend work;
- HDB renovation permits for hacking, and condo or building deposits;
- GST, and post-renovation cleaning.
Plan the clean-up too: our post-renovation cleaning cost guide covers what it costs after hacking and new flooring. For bathroom floors and waterproofing, see our toilet renovation cost guide.
Flooring for offices, shops and commercial premises
Commercial floors take far more traffic than homes. LN Flooring recommends vinyl with a 0.5 mm wear layer for offices, retail and F&B dining, with slip-rated porcelain over a waterproofing membrane in kitchens and wash areas. It also schedules commercial installs for evenings, weekends or one zone at a time so the space keeps trading.
For open-plan offices, carpet tiles remain common because single tiles can be replaced. ANB puts a typical 2,000–3,000 sq ft office carpet tile project at S$12,000–24,000. Offices with heavy cabling may use a raised access floor, which GetContractor budgets at S$10–15 psf to install, with carpet or vinyl laid on top. Workshops, warehouses, clinics and showrooms often choose epoxy; anti-slip and ESD systems cost the most.
At lease end, most landlords want tenant flooring removed. GetContractor Reinstatement lists removal of floor finishes and carpets in its reinstatement scope, and BSM Engineering prices carpet or vinyl removal at S$1.50–4 psf. See our office reinstatement cost guide. Ceilings and walls are separate trades: see the false ceiling and painting cost guides.

How to get an accurate flooring quote
- Measure the floor area, or send the floor plan, and say which rooms or zones are included.
- Describe the current floor and send photos, including any hollow, cracked or uneven areas.
- Name the product or grade you want (wear layer, thickness, carpet range, timber species) so quotes are comparable.
- Ask whether hacking, levelling, skirting, disposal and GST are included.
- For offices and shops, share the building’s working hours and fit-out rules before the quote.
Red flags
- A per-sq-ft price with no product name, thickness or wear layer.
- No mention of floor preparation when the existing floor is uneven or hollow.
- Tile hacking in an HDB flat without a renovation permit.
- A rate far below published bands with no written scope.
- No warranty, invoice or business details for the installer.
