Herringbone European Oak Installation

Terrigal, Central Coast NSW

A complete herringbone European Oak installation in a newly renovated coastal home. The client wanted a classic pattern with a contemporary matte finish to complement their open-plan living area. Nic and the team laid over 85m2 of engineered oak with precision-cut herringbone borders, finished with Bona Traffic HD for maximum durability in a high-traffic family home.

Spotted Gum Staircase Restoration

Killcare, Central Coast NSW

An architect-designed bushland home with a striking spotted gum staircase that had dulled over 15 years of heavy foot traffic. We carefully hand-sanded each tread and riser to preserve the timber profile, then applied three coats of Bona Mega Natural to bring the rich grain character back to life while maintaining a natural, low-sheen look that suits the bush setting.

Blackbutt Kitchen Sand & Polish

Gosford, Central Coast NSW

A busy family kitchen with original blackbutt floorboards that had seen better days -- deep scratches, water stains near the sink, and a worn-out finish. We sanded back to bare timber, repaired two damaged boards, and applied Bona Traffic HD in satin for a warm, resilient surface that handles daily kitchen life. The owners were amazed at how the natural honey tones came through after decades hidden under old varnish.

Timber Deck Oiling & Restoration

Avoca Beach, Central Coast NSW

A large merbau deck overlooking the ocean that had greyed and dried out after years of UV exposure and coastal weather. We pressure-cleaned, sanded to remove the grey surface layer, and applied two coats of Bona Decking Oil in a warm teak tone. The result is a rich, protected deck surface ready for another five years of barefoot summers. The client loved the transformation from weathered grey to warm, inviting timber.
