Boksburg notes on floors & boards
Boksburg buyers often replace worn carpet in Parkdene and Beyers Park houses, and some discover parquet underneath. If it is sound, restoring it usually beats covering it. For new floors, estates in Sunward Park and Atlasville mostly go for laminate, vinyl or wood-look tiles on slab. Bring a photo of the room and your colour preference to the supplier rather than choosing from small samples.
Floors and homes in Boksburg
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 laminate flooring requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: bedrooms, lounges and passages in AC4 boards that look like timber and clean easily
- Guesthouses, lodges and restaurants: guest rooms and staff areas in tough boards that look good and need little upkeep
- Landlords and letting agents: an affordable wood look that wears well between tenants and is quick to replace
