Floor Sanding Carrum Downs

Carrum Downs is one of our regular pockets on the Peninsula. Typical local stock — 1990s-2000s brick-and-tile estates with older pockets nearer Frankston-Dandenong Road — sands beautifully once the old finish is off.

A large proportion of homes in this pocket have original hardwood laid beneath carpet installed in the sixties or seventies. Half our early-job checks in Carrum Downs involve lifting a corner of carpet to see what species is underneath — usually Blackbutt or Cypress Pine, usually worth restoring rather than replacing.

Every quote we do in Carrum Downs starts with a walk-through. We check species, condition, existing coating, subfloor movement and any board damage. From there you get a clear scope, a starting rate from $35/m² for standard sand-and-polish work, and an honest recommendation on the finish system to use.
