We do not do solvent based for property over 100SQM due to flammability and fumes sipping into insulations. Non-Toxic waterbase option will be suitable for over 100SQM.

Non-Toxic Waterbase Options

Water Based finish has a natural look and are best suited for cafes, newly laid floors, or for urgent jobs due to the quick dry time.

Cost is slightly higher compared to oil / solvent based due to higher material cost. However due to the low VOC level and quick dry time you can choose to stay in the property while we do the job and save on accomodation cost. Usual job timeframe 1-5 Days

Nail punching and filling

If your floors are not secret nailed, nails may need to be punched in and nail holes filled with wood putty which is time consuming and labour intensive if needing the whole house done.

We use a pneumatic nail punch to tack in nails with even pressure followed by filling of nail holes with Timbermate wood putty.

Price is additional $2 p/sqm if whole house needs nails punched and nail holes filled.(If nails are previously tacked in deep and majority of the putty does not fall out, no charges apply)
