All Topics / Value Adding / Polishing floorboards
Hi all,
I am about to rip up the carpet in my new purchase and polish the floorboards. I have been quoted $20 per square metre.
Does anyone else have a tradie that has a comparable price? I am from the south of Sydney.
Thanks PK
Hello PK
Seems cheap to me. I was recently quoted $40/sqm to repolish floors or $120/sqm if it's a concrete slab and needs a floating floor. The quote was in Melbourne.
Hope this helps
ElkaI am in Melb too, but $20/m seems very good. I have had some quotes of $23-$25.

ElkaYou can get floor boards supplied and installed from Harvey Normans for around $89 a square meter-plus you get 3 years interest free-was by far the cheapest I could find of all the flooring companies I went to
bunnings and Ikea sells floating floors for $20/m
I got my labourer to sand my boards with a 1/3 sheet orbital. took 2 days. bought a 20 litre drum of polyurethane for $100. total cost $250 or $5/m. thanks for comin
It all depends on the end result you are trying to a get…
Average cost is between $20-40m2, those prices are in Melbourne.
Cheers
I just got the floor here polished about 4 weeks ago. I paid $25 per square metre. There was a horrible glue that needed major sanding to remove. All sanded, and three coats of a low gloss mono for $1700.
Also, factor in the cost of staying in a hotel or elsewhere. You cannot stay in the place for about 3 days.
