What Our Clients Say
Restoring your timber floors is one of the most effective ways to refresh your home without the expense of a full replacement. At Floorcraft Timber Floors, we provide transparent, expert advice on the cost of wood floor restoration and repair, helping you understand what’s involved and what to expect — before we begin.
As a third-generation, family-owned business, we’ve spent decades perfecting the art of bringing timber floors back to life. Backed by Australasian Timber Flooring Association (ATFA) accreditation and industry awards, our team combines advanced restoration techniques with honest pricing and impeccable results.
What Affects the Cost of Timber Floor Restoration?
-
Condition of the Floor
Deep scratches, dents, and previous coatings may require extra sanding or patch repairs. -
Timber Type
Dense Australian hardwoods (Jarrah, Spotted Gum, Blackbutt) need more time and specialised sanding pads. -
Coating System
Water-based finishes are eco-friendly but require multiple coats; oil-based finishes offer a deeper sheen at a different cost. -
Repairs or Replacements
If boards are cracked, lifted, or moisture-damaged, we repair or replace them before sanding. -
Access and Area Size
Larger, open rooms are more cost-efficient than tight spaces or multi-room restorations.
Our Award-Winning Restoration Process
1. Initial Assessment & Quote
We inspect your timber floors, identify repair areas, and explain your restoration options.
2. Repairs & Preparation
Damaged boards are replaced, gaps are filled, and surfaces are prepared for sanding.
3. Professional Sanding
Using commercial-grade equipment for smooth, even results with minimal dust.
4. Polishing & Coating
Application of your chosen finish — matte, satin, or gloss — using premium Australian-made products.
5. Final Buff & Inspection
We ensure a flawless finish before handing over your beautifully restored floors.
Our dust-controlled systems, premium materials, and decades of experience ensure a consistent, high-quality result that looks brand new.
The Real Value of Floor Restoration vs Replacement
Replacing timber floors can cost up to three times more than restoring them. Restoration is faster, cleaner, and more sustainable — extending your floor’s life by another 10–20 years.
Our clients often save thousands by choosing restoration instead of replacement. Beyond cost savings, a professional restoration preserves the original character of your home — especially for heritage or parquetry floors where replacement may not be practical.
Whether you’re rejuvenating an old family home or upgrading a commercial property, restoration offers a beautiful, high-value alternative to installing new floors.
