Floor Sanding
Our professional floor sanding service restores worn timber floors to their original condition. Using advanced equipment and techniques, we remove surface imperfections and prepare floors for polishing. This process enhances the natural grain patterns while ensuring a smooth, even finish. Ideal for both heritage properties and modern homes, our sanding solutions preserve the integrity of your timber while extending its lifespan.
Timber Polishing
We apply high-quality coatings to protect and enhance timber flooring surfaces. Our polishing process creates durable finishes that resist scratches and wear while highlighting the wood's natural beauty. Clients can choose from various sheen levels and protective treatments tailored to their specific usage requirements. This service ensures long-lasting results that maintain their lustre with proper care.
Floor Repairs
Our repair specialists address damaged or uneven timber flooring through targeted interventions. We replace sections with matching timber, repair water damage, and fix structural issues while maintaining visual consistency. This service preserves the character of existing floors while restoring functionality. We ensure seamless integration of repairs with surrounding surfaces for a cohesive appearance.

Questions
What timber species do you work with?
We handle various timbers including Blackbutt, Jarrah, Pine, Northern Red Box, Spotted Gum, and Tasmanian Oak. Our team can work with your existing timber or help select suitable materials for new installations.
How should I prepare my home for floor sanding?
Remove furniture and wall hangings before work begins. Clear the space completely and ensure pets are kept away from work areas. We'll cover remaining items and protect adjacent surfaces during preparation.
What coating options are available?
We offer multiple finishes including water-based polyurethanes, oil-based varnishes, and natural oils. Each option provides different levels of protection and aesthetic outcomes. Our team will recommend suitable coatings based on your specific requirements.
How long does the sanding and polishing process take?
Most residential projects take 3-5 days depending on floor size and condition. We provide accurate timelines during quoting and ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine throughout the process.
What aftercare is required for timber floors?
Regular dry cleaning and occasional damp mopping maintain floor appearance. Avoid excessive moisture and use protective pads on furniture legs. We provide detailed care instructions following each completed project.
Do you offer obligation-free quotes?
Yes, we provide free, no-obligation quotes for all projects. Our assessment considers floor condition, required work scope, and material requirements to deliver accurate cost estimates.

We could not recommend Andrew highly enough. We had our floors, which had been covered up since 1954, sanded and refinished and we are so happy with how they turned out. Andrew always turned up when he said he would, was reliable and friendly, and also helped us out by putting us onto a carpenter to fix some termite damaged boards. Andrew was also able to bring our job forward a week, which was fantastic. All in all, a reliable tradesman who does a terrific job.

Andrew did a superb job sanding and polishing our timber floors. He used the mat non-toxic finish which looks beautiful and had minimal odour. I highly recommend Andrew for sanding and polishing. Very trust worthy. Good price. Couldn't be happier!
