Floor Sanding and Polishing

Sanding & Floor Polishing

At Gray's Flooring, we can breathe new life into your timber floors with a professional sand and polish.

SANDING
We are professional floor sanders and polishers. In order to achieve high quality outcomes, floor sanding requires great skill and attention to detail. It involves using a high powered belt sander, which in inexperienced hands, much can go wrong. That is why all of our staff have many years of experience.

To ensure an immaculate outcome on every floor, we employ a time tested process coupled with comprehensive knowledge of all floor coating options.  

Despite the obvious benefits of transforming your home, we understand floor sanding is an inconvenient process for our clients. We pride ourselves on getting it right the first time, every time so you experience no unnecessary delays. That’s the advantage of using Gray's Flooring.

STAINING
Many clients are realising the transformative effect of staining a floor. We have stained hundreds of floors and are staining experts. There are two methods of staining, depending on the colour or tonal goal.:

Tint Coating
Tint coating is self explanatory. It involves adding an amount of stain to the polyurethane coating. The tinted coating is then applied to the floor. This method is perfectly suited for achieving minor to moderate colour and tonal contrasts. This requires expert application to achieve near perfect consistency of colour.

What are the benefits?
The method is more economical than direct staining and saves an entire day in drying times when compared with direct staining.

Direct Staining
This method of staining is the only way to achieve a supremely consistent, dark or very dark floor. We also primarily use this method to cancel out undesirable colours and tones for some clients, such as yellows and reds.

The process:
1. PREPARATION
Empty the areas being worked on. Remove all furniture from the areas, if possible use plastic sheeting and tape to seal off areas of the house you will still be staying to prevent dust entering.

2. SANDING
Coarse grade sand paper will begin the sanding process removing any previous coatings and major surface level defects. An edging machine will take care of the areas close to the skirting boards. This process is then repeated with a medium grade and fine grade paper.

3. POLISHING
2-3 coats of LOBA Duo (a german made water based polyurethane) will be applied to the floor. This high quality coating is quick drying creating a consistent finish with very little dust present.

4. COMPLETION
Once completed the area generally can be walked on (barefoot) the following day. Wait at least 2 days to place furniture in the room and around a week for rugs. Enjoy your beautiful timber flooring.

We’ll care for your flooring!
