Water-based vs. solvent-based polyurethane: which is better?
Modern two-pack water-based finishes (like Berger-Seidle CeramicStar and ProCoat) offer commercial-grade scratch resistance, low odour, fast curing, and keep your timber's true natural colour without the amber yellowing caused by traditional oil-based polyurethanes.
Is dustless floor sanding completely dust-free?
While no timber sanding process is 100% dust-free, our German machines with integrated HEPA vacuum extraction capture over 98% of airborne dust at the point of contact—a massive improvement over traditional bag sanders.
How long does floor sanding and polishing take?
Most standard residential projects in Canberra take 3 to 5 days, depending on the square meterage, repairs required, and drying times between coats. Water-based finishes allow light sock-foot traffic within 24 hours of the final coat.
Can you sand floorboards found under old carpet?
Yes. Many older Canberra homes have solid Cypress Pine, Tasmanian Oak, or hardwood boards hidden beneath carpet. We remove staples, punch nails, replace damaged boards, gap-fill, and restore them to look brand new.
