After our renovation works were completed, there was still a layer of fine dust all over the house, even inside the cupboards. We engaged Luce for post-renovation cleaning and the team did a fantastic job. They were thorough, punctual and paid attention to areas that are easy to overlook. The house felt much cleaner and fresher afterwards. Very pleased with the service.

Used Luce SG for post-reno cleaning before moving into our new flat. The cleaners arrived on time and worked very efficiently. They cleaned the windows, kitchen cabinets, floors and all the hard-to-reach corners where renovation dust had accumulated. The difference was night and day. Would definitely recommend them to anyone who has just completed renovation.

I was looking for a reliable post-renovation cleaning company and decided to try Luce after reading the reviews. The team exceeded my expectations. There was a lot of dust from the carpentry works, but they managed to get everything cleaned up nicely. The whole unit looked move-in ready when they were done. Great experience overall.

Really satisfied with the post-renovation cleaning service from Luce SG. My apartment had just finished renovation and there was dust everywhere, especially around the windows and built-in wardrobes. The cleaning crew was professional and very detailed in their work. It saved me a lot of time and effort. Will happily recommend their service to friends and family.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is formaldehyde removal?

Formaldehyde removal is a treatment service that helps reduce formaldehyde levels in indoor spaces. It is commonly booked after renovation, carpentry installation, furniture delivery, or before moving into a newly renovated home.

When should I book formaldehyde removal?

Book after renovation works, carpentry installation, painting, and major furniture delivery are completed. Ideally, the unit should also be cleaned and dry before treatment.

Is one treatment enough, or do I need multiple visits?

For most homes, one treatment is usually sufficient to reduce formaldehyde levels. However, results may vary depending on ventilation, the amount of new carpentry or furniture, and whether materials continue to release formaldehyde over time.

Can I book formaldehyde removal for just one room?

Yes, selected-room treatment can be arranged if the concern is mainly from one bedroom, nursery, study room, or specific carpentry/furniture area. Pricing will depend on the room size and treatment scope.

Can I book this together with deep cleaning?

Yes, but deep cleaning and formaldehyde removal should be arranged as separate services. We recommend completing deep cleaning first, then doing formaldehyde removal after surfaces are clean and fully dry.

Do I need formaldehyde removal if I already did post-renovation cleaning?

Yes, both services are different. Post-renovation cleaning removes dust, stains, debris, and renovation residue. Formaldehyde removal focuses on reducing formaldehyde levels and odour released from renovation materials, carpentry, furniture, adhesives, and indoor surfaces.

What areas will be treated?

The team will focus on accessible areas that commonly release formaldehyde, such as built-in carpentry, wardrobes, cabinets, shelving, laminated surfaces, pressed-wood furniture, and selected furnishing surfaces where suitable.

What is not included?

The service does not include moving or dismantling heavy furniture, clearing or disposing of items, unwrapping new furniture or appliances, or treating blocked or inaccessible areas. Treatment of walls, ceilings, false ceilings, cornices, appliances, electrical points, gas fixtures, and food-contact surfaces is not included unless assessed and agreed before service.

Do I need to leave the unit during treatment?

Yes, customers, children, elderly family members, and pets should not remain inside the unit during treatment. The team will advise on the recommended waiting and ventilation period before re-entering.

How long does the service take? 

Most residential formaldehyde removal services take around 4 hours, depending on unit size, layout, furnishing condition, and treatment areas. Larger homes or commercial spaces may require a longer duration.

Will there be any smell after treatment?

There may be a light treatment scent after the service, depending on the unit condition and ventilation. This usually improves after the space is properly aired.

Can formaldehyde be completely removed?

Formaldehyde levels can be reduced, but complete removal cannot be guaranteed because some materials may continue releasing formaldehyde gradually over time. Proper ventilation is still recommended after treatment.
