The dogs have really scratched up the floor boards and I am starting to stress about how much its going to cost to repair when we move out. Does anyone have a ROUGH idea what type of price we might be looking at? Most scratches arent very deep like only in the laquer I think. Also its not a huge area- just the kitchen and loungeroom... like maybe 15-20 square meters.... thank you Re: How much to have floorboards sanded? 3Mar 15, 2011 7:07 pm I am in Sydney and was quoted $22 per sq m just last week (for 70 sq m) Re: How much to have floorboards sanded? 4Mar 15, 2011 7:54 pm Try using this (from the Bona website): Bona Refresher is a ready-to-use waterborne polyurethane based product designed for the on-going maintenance of finished timber floors. When the floor starts to appear dull in walkways simply clean the surface well using Bona Wood Floor Cleaner, allow the surface to dry and simply apply 1 or 2 thin applications across the whole floor to bring it back to its original appearance. Available in a convenient 1 litre bottle It puts a nice new looking layer over the existing floor without the need to sand it back. It then acts as a sacrificial coating to further protect the floor. As they aren't deep scratches you should get away without sanding. I've used a similar product in the past and the floor looked mint afterwards. It might be just enough to get you through the bond inspection.
