Germiston notes on fitting & restoration
Fitters in Germiston often juggle two kinds of work: refinishing old floors in Primrose and Lambton, and quick commercial installs around Wadeville. Old floors may have several layers of past varnish that need a coarse first cut, and flats under a body corporate may restrict sanding hours. Dustless sanding is worth asking about for offices. Quote times depend on access, so describe stairs and lifts.
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: worn or damaged boards fixed outside business hours in reception and meeting rooms
- Homeowners: squeaks, lifted boards and borer damage fixed in bedrooms, passages and living rooms
- Shops, salons and cafés: damaged boards swapped out and blended so the shop floor looks even again
