Centennial Park Timber Floor Sanding, Staining & Polishing

Before sanding your floorboards, our timber floor experts based in Centennial Park will inspect and:

  • Vacuum the floor thoroughly
  • Check the surface of the boards for nails and replace or hammer these into the right position for a smooth finish
  • Take off any old polish that might remain from previous laminations

An expert in floor sanding and polishing in Centennial Park will be able to help you with ideas and styles to suit your home and décor. They will be able to discuss the best types of ecofriendly laminates and polishes as well as the different types of woods and surfaces to choose from.


Adler Flooring uses environmentally friendly varnishes including the well known Bona Traffic that results in a stunning matt finish.

Timber Floors: Are My Floorboards Suitable for Sanding?

Your experienced contractors will be able to repair past scratches and imperfections caused by moving furniture and general household wear and tear. Talk to your floor sander about the best finishes for the type of use where you are wanting the work done. Obviously a commercial or industrial floor is going to suffer a lot more wear and tear than domestic timber boards. So make sure you tell the contractor what the floor is being used for.

Can My Timber Floors Look Like This Picture?

If you have old timber floors that need to be repaired and resurfaced, It’s not reasonable to expect that they will end up with the same finish as a new timber floor in a display or magazine home. Older timber floors have some wonderful features that make them completely unique but it is unlikely they will allow a result without any imperfections.

There are a number of reasons why older timber doesn’t provide a “new” finish:

  • Stains: all sorts of domestic stains can occur over time and these can include animal urine, rust and water stains and burns.
  • Gouges and Cuts: carpet layers can leave cuts in wood around the edges with their sharp knives. These cuts can allow water to get in deeper than the cut over time and, even after the cut is sanded out, the discolouration may remain.
  • Walls taken out: these days, many houses are made larger and more “open plan” and as a result, many walls can be removed to allow for larger spaces. When a wall is removed, it will inevitably leave a dark stain mark. Depending on the room the wall was taken from, the stain can be darker or lighter. Obviously a kitchen, laundry or bathroom is likely to have left a darker stain due to a higher likelihood of water damage.
  • Wood Borers and Termites: It is not uncommon for a large part of damage caused by termites and other wood borers to be obvious only when sanding has taken place. If damage is minor, it is possible to fill it with a suitable filler that is colour matched to the board being filled. It is also possible to completely replace the board, however, this can also result in a different colour if the original board is quite old.

For these reasons it is worth consulting a professional, licensed and experienced floor sander and polisher in Centennial Park. This way you will ensure you have the best result for your timber boards. Call Ted Adler to organise your no obligation quote in Centennial Park.

A top company will tell you that timber floors need to be cared for like all other floor coverings.
 
1. Never use chemical or all purpose house hold cleaner to clean your polished timber floors. Steel wool or any sort of scourer can easily scratch and badly affect the varnish on your floor.

2. Use a soft cloth mop, broom or vacuum to remove all the grit and sharp objects that can scratch and mar the perfect surface of your newly polished timber floors.

3. Encourage everyone to remove their shoes or, at the very least, place good mats at every entrance way for people to remove the worst grit from their shoes before walking on your floors. Removing shoes reduces the need to clean (and socks can be great for polishing the floorboards!).

4. Put soft bases on all furniture legs. It is especially important to ask women with pointed stilettos to remove these as their effect on your floorboards can be extreme.

5. Wood and water do not mix. Try to use a dry mop and don’t use a steam mop because wood just doesn’t respond well to water of any sort. The best Sydney floor sanding company will tell you what product you should use to keep your floors in top condition.

They will recommend a floor cleaner that suits the varnish and type of timber of your floors.
