Underlay and skirting are worth pricing together for flat conversions.
Floors and homes in Germiston
Germiston grew around the railway and the gold reef, and the age of its streets shows underfoot. Inner suburbs such as Dinwiddie and Lambton have houses from the early to mid twentieth century, many with timber floors on suspended frames and some with later parquet laid over them. The industrial belt around Wadeville and Isando adds a steady stream of offices, showrooms and canteens that want hard-wearing floors fitted quickly. Highveld frost nights and dry winters make boards shrink, so refinishing is best done in the drier months. Bedfordview homeowners nearby often ask for engineered boards, and several specialist sanders cover the East Rand from here.
The requests we see from Germiston usually come from:
- Offices, practices and showrooms: a staff terrace or entrance deck built from hardwood to take daily foot traffic
- Homeowners: a timber deck off the lounge or stoep for braais, pots and sundowners
- Shops, salons and cafés: a deck for a cafe or nursery seating area that resists weather and traffic
