Interwar homes and a heavy layer of student rental conversions around the university.
St Lucia 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.
Sand and polish is $35 to $60 a square metre. Carpet lift and staple removal is a separate $8 to $15, and board replacement runs $90 to $200 each — get those itemised.
The core job — taking a tired timber floor back to bare wood.
The finish itself — water-based or solvent, and how many coats.
Refreshing a worn finish without spending the floor's remaining thickness.
Cupped, swollen or storm-affected floors — and why you must wait.
