Timber Floor Sanding Inner West Sydney
What We Do
Timber floors are a defining feature of many Inner West homes, including the character-filled cottages and terraces in Balmain and Marrickville’s larger Federation homes. With more than 30 years of experience, Abacus Flooring specialises in timber floor sanding and polishing, expertly restoring solid timber and engineered floors to preserve their character and beauty.
Floor Sanding & Polishing
We sand floors back to bare timber, then apply a protective coating in your choice of a matte, satin, or gloss finish.
Floor Staining
Before the final polish, we can apply a stain to change or enhance the timber's colour, such as a whitewashed or limewashed finish.
Staircase Sanding & Restoration
Staircases, balustrades, handrails, and landings all get the same treatment we give the rest of your floor, sanded and refinished to match.
Floorboard Restoration
If you have any damaged, cupped, or missing boards, we can repair or replace them so your sanded and polished floor sits flat and even.
Where We Sand Floors in Sydney's Inner West
Timber Floor Sanding Marrickville
We’ve restored many original timber floors throughout Marrickville, particularly in Victorian terraces, workers’ cottages and Federation homes. These floors often have years of wear but are still in great condition underneath, with sanding and polishing helping to bring back the natural beauty of the timber.
We've also completed projects for businesses around Marrickville Road, including hospitality venues and commercial spaces above them.
Timber Floor Sanding Balmain
Working in Balmain’s heritage terraces and cottages requires an understanding of the suburb’s narrow streets and limited parking. Our team understands how to carefully coordinate each project, from getting equipment onsite through to completing our sanding process efficiently.
One of the highlights of working in Balmain is restoring timber floors in the larger homes closer to the waterfront, where we’re often rewarded with incredible harbour views.
Timber Floor Sanding Leichhardt
Leichhardt’s mix of homes and commercial spaces means we work on a wider variety of projects. Many homeowners are looking for floors to be refreshed or looking to have the colour of their floorboards matched to flow better with their renovation or extension.
We’ve also worked across Leichhardt’s commercial spaces around Norton Street, from restaurants and retail shops to office spaces. These spaces often require a tailored approach to suit the way they’re used day to day, from planning around business hours to selecting the right finish for the space.
Timber Floor Sanding Ashfield
Similar to the other inner west suburbs, Ashfield tends to bring jobs focused on restoring old original floors that either have years of wear or have only just been discovered during a renovation. They’re mostly single level federation homes but on the east of the train station we work in more flats assisting landlords and real estate agents with restoration between tenancies or as part of property upgrades.
Our team also regularly work in Summer Hill and Annandale, restoring timber floors in a wide range of spaces, from character homes to local businesses.
