Fitting & restoration in Boksburg: local notes
Parquet restoration is the typical Boksburg job. Fitters lift loose blocks in Witfield and Parkdene, clean off old bitumen or glue, re-lay and then sand. Colour matching of replaced blocks is never perfect, so ask to see earlier work. After sanding, sealing is quoted per square metre, and staining and gap filling cost extra. Jet Park venues usually need work done in quiet periods.
Boksburg: climate, homes and floors
Boksburg has a lot of 1960s and 1970s housing, and with it a lot of parquet. Blocks of oak, kiaat or Rhodesian teak were glued to screeds in many living rooms in suburbs such as Parkdene and Witfield, and today they are being sanded back and resealed. Time and sun have often darkened them, and some blocks have lifted where old adhesive failed. Dry Highveld winters, with big day and night swings, make loose blocks more obvious. Newer estates around Sunward Park and Atlasville are on concrete slabs and lean towards laminate and wood-look tiles. Hotels and conference venues near Jet Park and the airport corridor add commercial work.
Typical floor sealing and varnishing requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a fresh satin coat over sanded pine or oak boards in lounges, bedrooms and passages
- Guesthouses, lodges and restaurants: tough finishes for lounges, dining rooms and guest rooms that take luggage and spills
- Landlords and letting agents: a quick reseal between tenants that hides scuffs and protects the boards for years
