Timber flooring installation
Engineered oak, solid hardwood, hybrid and vinyl plank — measured, moisture-tested, acclimatised and installed to the manufacturer’s specification.
Lower North Shore
Cremorne mixes fine harbourside houses with a heavy concentration of deco apartments — two different jobs on the same street.
We cover Cremorne and the surrounding Lower North Shore.
The apartment work here is acoustic work first. Many of the blocks around Cremorne Point and Milson Road date from the interwar period, with concrete slabs and no acoustic separation beyond the slab itself, which means the underlay system is doing all the work of meeting the by-law. That is exactly the situation where the difference between a laboratory rating and real installed performance matters, and where we are explicit that a lab figure is an indicator rather than a guarantee.
The freestanding homes carry the same original hardwood story as Mosman, often in very good condition, and often worth restoring rather than replacing.
Services
Engineered oak, solid hardwood, hybrid and vinyl plank — measured, moisture-tested, acclimatised and installed to the manufacturer’s specification.
Bringing tired, dark, scratched floorboards back to raw timber and finishing them properly — with dust extraction that keeps the rest of the house liveable.
The most specified floor in Sydney right now, and for good reason — real timber wear layer, far more dimensional stability than solid, and it suits apartments.
Waterproof, hard-wearing and quieter underfoot than laminate — the sensible answer for wet areas, rentals, holiday houses and anywhere with kids and dogs.
Water damage, squeaks, cupped boards, gaps and holes where a wall used to be — repaired and blended so the fix does not become the thing you look at.
The least visible part of the job and the part that decides whether the floor above it lasts. Always assessed on site, always quoted separately.
Questions
No underlay can be guaranteed to pass on paper. Ratings come from laboratory tests on a specific slab and build-up, and older Cremorne blocks in particular vary enormously in slab thickness and ceiling treatment below. A high lab rating is a strong indicator, but only on-site testing after installation confirms real performance. Anyone promising a guaranteed pass before installation is overstating what they can know.
