Beach houses, renovated cottages and entertainer’s decks - Burleigh Heads living is built around timber. We sand, polish, stain and restore it to a finish that suits the coast.
Burleigh Heads is classic southern-end Gold Coast: original beach cottages, big renovations and homes built for indoor-outdoor living. Spotted gum and blackbutt are everywhere, and so are timber decks that cop the salt and sun.
The light down here is strong, so finish choice matters - we’ll steer you toward a satin or matte that reads rich without throwing glare. Decks get stripped and re-oiled to handle the beachside weather.

We’re in and around these suburbs every week:
The questions we get asked most around here - answered straight.
We price by the square metre, and the rate depends on your timber, the state of the boards and the finish you choose - a heavily-coated old floor is more work than a light re-coat. Around Burleigh Heads we see a lot of spotted gum, blackbutt and hardwood decking timber, and we’ll measure yours and give you a firm, no-obligation price before we start.
Not the way we do it. Our sanders run dust extraction that captures the vast majority of dust right at the cutter, so there are no dust clouds through the house. We mask off doorways and leave the site clean - it’s the number-one reason Burleigh Heads locals call us back.
Usually, yes. Cupped, scratched, gappy or previously-coated floors are our bread and butter - most Burleigh Heads jobs are living-area sand & polish, beach-cottage restorations and deck re-oils. Where a board really is beyond help we’ll replace just that one and blend it in, rather than re-laying the lot.
It comes down to the look and the traffic. Satin is the easy all-rounder - it hides marks and feels natural underfoot; gloss is rich and wipes clean; limewash and natural oils give that pale, coastal feel. We’ll match the right coating to your timber and how you live.
Most Burleigh Heads homes take two to four days, depending on the area, the number of coats and drying time between them. You’ll get a clear schedule with your quote, including when it’s safe to walk on the floor and move the furniture back.

When it comes to floor sanding, it's essential to choose a service that combines expertise, quality, and reliability. That's where Fine Finished Floors, the team behind Burleigh Heads Floor Sanding, comes in.

Over time, timber floors lose their shine due to scratches, dents, and general wear. Burleigh Heads Floor Sanding can restore their natural beauty, making your floors look new again.
Polished and well-maintained hardwood floors are a major selling point for homes. Whether you're planning to sell or just want a refreshed look, floor sanding can significantly increase your property's market value.
Sanding removes imperfections from the surface, and applying a quality finish ensures that your floors are more resistant to future damage. Burleigh Heads Floor Sanding can extend the lifespan of your flooring for many years.
There are multiple finishes to choose from, including water-based, oil-based, and polyurethane. Each offers unique advantages, from the glossy sheen of polyurethane to the eco-friendly appeal of water-based finishes. Burleigh Heads Floor Sanding can help you select the best finish for your floors.
While DIY sanding kits are available, professional sanding ensures smooth, even results. Incorrect sanding can leave marks or uneven surfaces. It's best to leave this task to the experts at Burleigh Heads Floor Sanding for flawless results.
Once your floors are sanded and finished, regular cleaning and maintenance will keep them in top condition. Sweep regularly to remove dirt and avoid using harsh chemicals.
Q1: How often should I sand my hardwood floors?
It depends on the foot traffic. Generally, floors should be sanded every 7 - 10 years to maintain their appearance.
Q2: Will sanding my floors create a lot of dust?
No. Burleigh Heads Floor Sanding uses dustless sanding equipment, which minimizes dust and disruption in your home.
Q3: How long does the sanding process take?
The time varies depending on the size of the area and the condition of the floors, but most jobs are completed in 2 - 3 days.
