Eco Friendly Heritage Hardwood Floor Restoration from Livos

Cost effective solution for Heritage Listed Properties.

Thinning of old timber floors -

It was a combination of events that led the city of Yarra Council to contract the sanding and oiling of several of their timber floors at various city locations. One such place was the beautiful old hardwood floor at the Fitzroy Town hall, dating back to 1873 and recorded as a 'Heritage place' by Heritage Victoria.

Words by the Executive Project Engineer, City of Yarra.

"In early 2011 the City of Yarra was looking for a more environmentally friendly method of treating its historic Town Hall Floors. It was decided to use Livos Australia to sand and oil the stage floor in the Fitzroy Town Hall as it was in very poor condition. The benefits we found were a minimal impact from smell and disruption compared to traditional synthetic coatings. Also given the floor is used for public functions it is regularly scratched by hirers of the hall. We found that the floor was quickly and easily repaired without the need to re sand the surface.

I would not hesitate in recommending Livos Australia for other projects."
