Floor Sanding
Our floor sanding service removes surface damage and old finishes to restore timber floors. Using professional-grade equipment, we prepare surfaces for polishing while preserving structural integrity. Clients benefit from smoother finishes that enhance natural wood grain patterns.
Deck Restoration
Specialising in outdoor timber restoration, we revitalise decks through sanding, sealing, and protective coating applications. Our process extends deck lifespan while maintaining safety and aesthetic appeal for residential and commercial properties.
Timber Polishing
We apply premium finishes to enhance timber durability and appearance. Using products like Wattyl 7008 polyurethane, we create protective layers that resist wear while highlighting wood's natural beauty for long-lasting results.
Floor Repairs
Our repair service addresses structural damage, water issues, and wear through targeted restoration. We replace damaged boards and patch surfaces to maintain floor integrity while preserving original character.
Commercial Flooring
We provide large-scale sanding and polishing solutions for commercial spaces including schools, gyms, and hospitality venues. Our team works efficiently to minimise disruption while delivering durable finishes for high-traffic areas.

Max provided advice today in response to my enquiry about our wooden floors in our Queenslander house. His advice was honest, pragmatic and it was clear that he is extremely knowledgeable about floors. Highly recommended for any floor related work. I will certainly contact him again in future.

Max and his team last week sanded and finished our spotted gum floors upstairs and down with
three coats of Estapol Satin finish, plus internal stairs with non-slip finish. We are very happy indeed with the finish throughout in our Tarragindi home and were justified in our trust regarding the care that would be taken with the work and also maintaining our home security whilst we were away for a week. Everything was clean and looked wonderful when we returned home. There is naturally some light dust on surfaces, including windows and pictures on walls, but this was expected and easily dealth with

Max and his team have just finished resanding and applying an estapol satin finish to our tired and worn down floors throughout our home of 24 years. After recently painting the internal rooms of our home, we were concerned that the skirting boards would be marked in the process. We were assured that would not happen, unlike others who had quoted on the job. They were able to repair some split floorboards and gaps that had developed over the years. We found them to be punctual, courteous and friendly. They did a fantastic professional job and we are thrilled with the beautiful results. There was
