Floors in Surry Hills

Dense Victorian terrace stock with a heavy overlay of warehouse conversions and small apartment blocks — two completely different floor jobs in the same postcode.

About Surry Hills

• Terrace floors here are commonly baltic pine, often already sanded two or three times across a century. Thickness is the first thing to check, not the last.
• Converted warehouses frequently have heavy structural hardwood that sands to a superb result but needs a commercial-grade coating for the traffic it takes.

Licensing and approvals

Surry Hills 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.

What it costs

Floor sanding is quoted per square metre, so the single biggest thing you can do is have the area measured properly rather than estimated over the phone.

Indicative ranges are published here, with a firm price after the boards have been inspected.
