Wooden Floor Installation in Free State

What to know locally in Free State

Older Bloemfontein suburbs such as Waverley, Hilton and Brandwag have suspended pine floors that sand back well, sometimes with creaks from loose boards that need fixing first. In the Goldfields around Welkom, company houses may have concrete floors under thin coverings. Sanders drive in from Bloemfontein for smaller towns, so ask about call-out fees and bundle rooms together.

What lies underfoot in Free State

The Free State has cold, frosty winters and hot summers, with thunderstorms bringing short bursts of humidity. Bloemfontein and the grain towns have many sandstone and brick homes with suspended pine floors, plus 1960s and 1970s houses on slabs. The mining towns around Welkom and Sasolburg have older company housing, and the eastern hills around Clarens and Bethlehem have guesthouses and holiday homes. Skilled carpenters and sanders work out of Bloemfontein, and some travel to smaller towns. Many jobs involve refreshing old boards rather than laying new floors, and heating can dry rooms further in winter.
