So efficient quick friendly well priced. They came to quote to replace our old wooden floor boards gave us a reasonable price then came back a week or so later and completed the job very quickly. The new floor looks amazing. They came when they said they would and tidied up even taking away some of the stuff under the house and fixing a crooked piling. Totally recommend them !

AJ Flooring did a simply wonderful job restoring our deck to its original condition with the application of Cutek oil. Preparation was thorough and clean up was excellent with no spillage on white screen walls when fiddly detailed screens required detailed application. I’ll definitely be using them again. My extensive deck looks brand new. I can’t wait to enjoy it over summer. J2024-10-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and made everything so easy and accomodating for me. They completed a wonderful repair & refinish on my floor after I had unfortunately initially used another company which left me very unhappy and upset with the result. The end product was better than I could have hoped. David and his team are skilled tradesman who take pride in the result, which is rare these days! The team were very happy and jovial and it was a nice change from the serious & somewhat intimidating nature of other tradesman I’ve worked with in the past. A wonderful experience and I recommend them to all friends and family whom are looking in to flooring work. angel al massoud2024-09-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Warren Davison2024-05-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the third job they have done for us. This one was tricky being a 130 year old heritage house with original floorboards that have now been refurbished and look very original. A wonderful job and we have another for them in our adjacent areas. Brad Edwards2023-07-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

James T2023-06-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave and team restored our old pine floors and stained them to a beautiful colour. We had cracked timber, holes and gaps everywhere and all of these were repaired as part of the job.
St Ives properties, such as architect-designed family homes or established brick residences, often feature timber flooring for its resilience and warmth. A J Flooring has provided floor sanding and polishing in St Ives for more than four decades, helping homeowners bring life back to aged or damaged timber floors. We work across hardwoods and engineered boards, using precise sanding techniques and high-performance Bona finishes to achieve consistent, long-lasting results.
If your floors show signs of wear, discolouration or scuffing, we remove surface damage and restore the natural tone of the wood. Every finish is water-based, low-VOC, and designed to withstand foot traffic in busy households, which is ideal for homes across the leafy streets of St Ives.
Common Flooring Issues in St Ives
Homes in St Ives often deal with UV exposure from skylights or large windows, leading to fading and uneven colour. Humid conditions and general wear can cause cupping, surface dullness or gaps between boards. These issues are common in timber floors over time, but are rarely beyond repair.
We sand floors to remove built-up surface damage and apply protective coatings that resist moisture and everyday impact. Whether the property is a modern build near Memorial Avenue or a mid-century home on Collins Road, we adapt our approach to preserve the existing character while strengthening the finish.

St Ives Flooring FAQs
What’s Bona floor finish, and why is it used in St Ives homes?
Bona is a water-based, low-VOC finish that enhances timber’s appearance, protecting it from moisture and wear. It’s ideal for St Ives homes with large open-plan areas and natural light.
How do I keep my timber floors clean without damaging them?
Use a microfibre mop or vacuum with a soft head. Skip harsh cleaners or abrasive pads, these can dull or scratch the surface. Light, regular cleaning keeps them looking fresh.
Can scratched boards in older St Ives homes be repaired?
Yes. Most scratches, dents or edge gaps can be fixed with sanding and spot repairs. If a board is too damaged, we may replace it without redoing the whole floor.
