Australian Dustless Floorsanding

Do I have to tape over and cover up adjoining rooms?

Adjoining rooms and special furniture are completely safe as the Australian Dustless Floorsanding system removes all the dust as it goes - taking it outside through hoses before it gets a chance to settle inside your home, gallery or shop front.

In what order do I get in my tradesmen?

Australian Dustless Floorsanding generally needs to be last / after all other trades so you can protect your investment. New carpet is best installed after floor sanding due to fibres.

What do I need to do to get ready?

Australian Dustless Floorsanding requires parking in the immediate area close to your project for the large trailer. All furniture needs to be removed off the work zone involved prior to works as well as all hanging pictures and mirrors etc. for safety reasons. We may require sole access to the work site to ensure quality control and adequate power supply. The dust extraction unit is powered independently and therefore completely self-sufficient.

Will I have to empty out my shelves and tape over all cupboards?

No - not anymore! Save time and hassle as well as remove your exposure to carcinogenic dust. This is the beauty of using Australian Dustless Floorsanding. Thanks to our "greener" system - our rejuvenation process won't contribute dust to your timber-flooring project.

Will I have to protect computers and our piano in the Library/study?

No as the dust isn't allowed to escape the machines and is drawn outside away from clients, precious art works, linen, books, soft furnishings etc. - chandeliers, computers, furniture and paintings are no longer under threat of being compromised by fine sanding dust.

Pets?

Pets generally don't like noisy tradesmen taking over their turf. Access to the new floor is restricted during the project as well. We feel it is best for most Pets to be kept elsewhere so they can relax until it's more comfortable for them to come home.

What if I need more information?

Please call or email Australian Dustless Floorsanding to address other concerns or questions you might have. As Australia's first truly Dustless Floorsanding company, we are here to help and to also make the renovation process easier. It is our pleasure to assist any way we can.

I have an existing polished floor with whitish footprints that have appeared in the coating. What can I do about it?

This interesting phenomenon is referred to as "ghosting" whereby opaque shoe and boot prints etc. appear 1 - 2 years after the floor has been done. Thoughts vary on why it occurs but it is commonly agreed that a good Resand and recoat will rarely solve the problem. But the good news is that over the years, ADF staff have been asked to assist clients with this issue and in our experience we have fine-tuned strategies to ensure the ghosting doesn't reappear.

How much dusts will there be?

We will not create any dust at your project. Our innovative dust extraction system means clients in Melbourne finally have the opportunity to experience a dust free timber flooring renovation without the chaos. The last thing we want is for Clients to be held to ransom by time consuming clean ups caused from dust after we're gone.
