Premium Timber Floor Sanding in Melbourne

Revive the Character of Your Timber Floors

Over time, timber floors in Melbourne homes can lose their warmth and shine from foot traffic, pets, furniture and sunlight. Namu Floors specialises in transforming tired, worn-out floorboards into a smooth, durable surface that lifts the whole room.

Based in Melbourne, our team uses professional sanding machines, dust-control systems and premium finishes to remove old coatings and imperfections, revealing the fresh, natural timber underneath

Our Professional Timber Floor Sanding Process

Every project follows our proven 4-step process to deliver smooth, long-lasting and beautifully finished timber floors.

01 Preparation & Repairs

We carefully inspect your floors, punch down protruding nails, repair minor damage and fill gaps with colour-matched putty. We also carry out timber floor repairs where needed. Furniture is moved or protected, and plastic coverings are used to minimise dust in surrounding areas.

02 Level Sanding (Rough Pass)

We use heavy-duty belt sanders and coarse grit papers to level your timber floors, remove old coatings and take out most deep scratches and dents.

03 Fine Sanding (Smooth Pass)

We progressively move to finer grits using rotary and orbital machines. This step leaves your timber floor silky smooth and ready for staining or clear coating.

04 Edges & Corners

Specialist edging machines and hand-sanding tools are used along skirting boards, stairs and hard to reach corners, making sure every edge matches the centre of the room for a consistent finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does floor sanding take?

For a typical 3-bedroom Melbourne home, timber floor sanding and polishing usually takes 3–5 days, including coating and drying time. The exact schedule depends on the floor size, existing condition and the type of finish you choose, and we confirm this with you before starting.

Is the process dusty?

No sanding process is 100% dust-free, but we use high-powered vacuums and modern dust-extraction systems connected to our machines. We also seal off work areas where possible to significantly reduce dust spreading throughout your home.

Can you fix deep scratches?

In most cases, yes. Our professional sanding process removes the top layer of timber, which takes out the majority of deep scratches, dents and surface stains. If there is severe damage to certain boards, we can discuss repair or board replacement options before we begin.
