Looking after wide-board floors in Coogee

Wide engineered boards recoated in Coogee

Many of the newer homes around Port Coogee have wide engineered timber boards – a popular look in coastal homes. Wide boards show wear and scratches more clearly than narrow ones, because there are fewer joins to break up the surface. Floor sanding in Coogee often starts with knowing when these floors need their first recoat.

A recoat before the finish wears through keeps wide engineered boards protected and avoids the need for sanding, which isn’t always possible on thinner timber layers. We buff the existing finish, clean thoroughly and apply a fresh protective coat.

Coogee’s older homes, closer to the original beach streets, often have solid timber floors. These can be fully sanded and polished back to fresh timber, with gaps filled and edges finished neatly.

Floor sanding Coogee – common questions

Do wide boards show wear more than narrow boards?

They can, because there are fewer joins to break up scratches and dull patches.

When should a wide engineered floor be recoated?

Before the finish wears through in traffic areas. In busy homes, that may be every few years.

Can engineered wide boards be sanded?

Only if the timber layer is thick enough. Many are best maintained with recoats.

Do you sand older solid floors in Coogee?

Yes. Solid timber floors can be fully sanded and polished.
