No-Hack Waterproofing in Singapore: Fix Loose Tiles, Hollow Sounds & Water Leaks Without Removing a Single Tile 

Living in Singapore means dealing with relentless humidity and unpredictable rainfall. While the weather is part of life here, it can silently damage your home. Over time, floor tiles may become loose, hollow, or start tenting, while hidden water leaks can cause major structural issues and health hazards. 

But there’s good news. You don’t need to hack your tiles or rip apart your floors to fix the problem. At Lefong Building Services, we use tile injection technology combined with MC TRX Injection Gel to deliver a clean, non-invasive, and highly effective waterproofing solution—perfect for homes, HDBs, condos, and commercial properties in Singapore. 

Let us show you how it works and why this method is revolutionising waterproofing across the island. 

Common Signs of Trouble: 

  • Tiles sound hollow or “drummy” when tapped 
  • Floor tiles are lifting, loose or tenting 
  • Cracks appear on the tile surface 
  • Water leaks show up as stains on walls or ceilings 
  • Persistent mould or mildew smell in wet areas 
  • Constant humidity and moisture weaken tile adhesive over time 
  • Improper installation or lack of waterproofing membrane 
  • Building movement and settling in older structures 
  • Water seepage due to poor drainage in bathrooms and balconies 

Forget the noise, dust, and mess of tile hacking. Our solution uses MC TRX Injection Gel, a premium polyurethane-based waterproofing material designed to: 

  • Fill voids beneath hollow tiles 
  • Seal cracks and pathways where water enters 
  • Re-bond tiles to the concrete substrate 
  • Prevent further delamination and leakage 

1. Diagnosis – Quick & Accurate 

We use moisture meters and specialised tapping tools (yes, even a “golf ball on a stick”) to identify hollow-sounding tiles and moisture-prone areas. This lets us map out the exact location of damage—no guesswork involved. 

✅ No tile removal 
✅ Non-destructive inspection 
✅ Transparent pricing 

2. Micro Drilling – Precision at 2–3mm 

Tiny holes (2–3mm) are drilled along tile grout lines. This gives us access to the voids beneath your tiles without damaging the surface or surrounding tiles. 

3. Injection – Adhesive Meets Waterproofing 

Our dual-action system: 

  • Uses a low-pressure gun to inject tile adhesive or MC TRX Injection Gel 
  • The gel expands to fill gaps, seal leaks, and rebond loose tiles 
  • Works for ceramic, marble, porcelain, and stone 

Any excess is cleaned instantly, leaving behind no visible marks. 

✅ No dust, debris, or hacking 
✅ Works in dry and wet zones (kitchens, balconies, toilets) 

4. Double Check – Sound Test for Peace of Mind 

We retest the repaired tiles to make sure they’re firmly bonded and sound solid—just like a freshly installed tile. 

✅ Verified results 
✅ 100% re-bonded flooring 

5. Finishing – Invisible Repairs 

The micro holes are sealed using grout that matches your original colour. Once done, you won’t even notice we were there.
