Character pre-war housing near the river, much of it in the 2011 and 2022 flood footprints. Cupped boards that have not rotted usually come back — but only after they have properly dried.
What comes up most around Sherwood: floor sanding, polishing & coating, board repairs. Pre-war riverside stock, so that mix is typical for the area.
Sherwood 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.
The cheapest good outcome is often a recoat rather than a full sand — $18 to $30 a metre, and it spends none of the floor's remaining thickness. Ask the question directly.
Indicative pricing by job type, then a firm quote on site.
