Timber floors around Marrickville

Interwar and Federation houses on generous blocks, with a growing layer of apartment development along the main roads.

Marrickville in brief

• Interwar housing here typically used Australian hardwood rather than baltic pine, which means more thickness left and a more predictable stain result.
• A lot of these floors are still under original carpet. Lift a corner in a wardrobe before assuming there's nothing there.

Licence requirements

Marrickville is inside the City of Sydney area, so those rules apply.

Licensing is state-level and identical here: a Building Commission NSW contractor licence for work over $5,000, and HBCF cover at $20,000 and above. Strata by-laws, by contrast, are set building by building.

Costs

Sand and polish is $40 to $70 a square metre in Sydney. In a strata building, acoustic underlay adds $25 to $60 and a test report $400 to $1,200 — get those itemised.
