I also had this issue last month and was looking everywhere for a solution for a leakage problem to downstairs neighbour. Asked around and found out about flood infusion, the good thing is you don’t need to hack and replace whole toilet. You can check out Prima Seal Waterproofing, they specialise in flood infusion method. They managed to solve my problem and I had a good experience with them.
Hi, sorry have to dig this thread as it showed up in my Google search.
Wanna know roughly how much to do it as my toilet also failed the recent water test during HIP.
When I bought a resale flat, the master bedroom toilet showed sign of potential leak. My contractor suggested that he pump my almost 1k into the sealing. But just after one year, the ceiling started to leak.
I complained to HDB and they sent an officer quite promptly to my flat as well as the flat upstairs to determine whether upstairs is responsible.
He officer suggested that the common toilet also be rectified though nothing was wrong with it. In the end I paid about $280 (25% of cost) for both toilets and upstairs unit paid the same and HDB bore 50%.
Its been 3 years for me after Infusion Method. So far unit below never complain leaking.
Is time for me to renovate both toilets. Any recommendation?
During the time of investigation and any proposed solution correspondence with me from HDB, the HDB officer informed that there is this method. But this method will not be eligible for the goodwill assistance scheme from HDB (50% subsidised by HDB, 25% upstairs capped at $700, 25% downstairs capped at $700) and both owners bear that method cost 50%-50% ownselves.
the goodwill assistance is only applicable for the old school method which involves the hacking away, waterproofing and retiling. it comes with a defects liability period from HDB.

Yeah. No choice loh. To prevent the Reno inconvenience, i chose to pay full on my own. Now Reno toilet also have to pay full.
bro how much u paid full for the flood infusion method back then?
$750 I think
HTML:
my neighbour above is causing the common toilet ceiling leak and now the HDB officer recommended solution is the chemical injection method which is $750.
Is that cost for you for 1 toilet or 2?
And why didn't you opt to have your neighbour below co-pay?
