Hillside homes
and humid air
Hulu Kelang and Ulu Klang stretch across hillside neighbourhoods on the north-east edge of Kuala Lumpur. Many homes here are landed houses with timber floors, set among greenery that keeps the air humid.
Humidity affects wood floors and finishes. Boards can move slightly with the seasons, and coatings need enough dry time to cure. We plan the schedule around the weather and advise on ventilation afterwards.

Kelang Floors
Look out for humidity-related movement, landed houses with timber and similar signs.
Humidity-related movement
Gaps or cupping can appear in damp conditions, so we look for moisture signs before sanding.
Landed houses with timber
Floors that run across several rooms and stairs.
Mould-prone corners
Poor ventilation near bathrooms or outer walls can stain boards.
Sloped properties
Access for machines may need planning on steep driveways or steps.
