Floors in Paddington

Densely packed pre-war workers' cottages on steep stumps, most of them with original hoop pine or early hardwood boards under whatever went down later.

About Paddington

• Almost entirely suspended timber floors — there is very little slab-on-ground stock here, so if there's carpet down, there is a floor under it.
• Hoop pine is common in the earliest cottages and it's a softer timber that blotches badly with dark stain. Sample on the actual boards before committing to a colour.

Licensing before you book

Paddington is inside the Brisbane City Council area, so those rules apply.

QBCC licensing is state-level, so it's identical here: a Floor finishing and covering (hard sector) licence for the sanding itself, and a licensed contractor for any building work over $3,300.

What it costs

Floor sanding is quoted per square metre, so the single biggest thing you can do is have the area measured properly rather than estimated over the phone.

Indicative ranges are published here, with a firm price after the boards have been inspected.
