There was a customer, several years ago who decided to hire a cheap floor tradesman to work on his "GreyBox" timber floor. After completion, the end result was disasterous. Insurance company compensated and decided to use their own flooring tradesman, who also failed to finish off the floor.
Both, so called, trade professionals, lacked the knowledge of the Hard-to-Work with Greybox timber [hard/oily] and both lacked product knowledge.
Polaco Master Floor Sanding had to pleasure and hard work to restore the timber project, for the third time.
End result was happy tears from the customer, a rare sight in any circumstance.

We offer “Honest” prices, “Integrity” across all of our services and “Quality” in our Craftsmanship, gained through decades of experience. We use an integrated system of high performance / dust containing sanding machines, unique Anti-Static abrasives and the use of High Quality, Non-Toxic, Water Based coatings from "BONA". The result is a healthier non-toxic working environment, a cleaner job site, and beautiful timber floors.

If building or renovating, the start date for sanding and coating of floors is critical particularly in relation to other trades.
Carpentry, electrical, plastering, plumbing and glazing must be completed before work on the floor can start
Any silicone or silicone based product/s which comes into contact with the floor after sanding but prior to any of the 3 coats will cause rejection of the coating. Silicone is often found on the footwear of plumbers and glaziers
It is recommended that all painting except the final coat on skirting boards be completed. The final coat can be applied to skirtings after completion of the floor.
Carpets should be laid after all floor coating is finished
Unless specifically agreed to and quoted for, all furniture should be removed, together with all floor coverings (including staples, tacks, etc.)
Gas and electrical appliances are to be disconnected by qualified personnel and removed. All pilot lights (including hot water system) are to be turned off.
Adequate lighting and power to be available
Arrangements made for clear and safe access to the site.
In many instances arrangements should be made for alternative accommodation, bearing in mind the wet floor areas which cannot be walked on.
