21.01.2022 Keep your feedback's coming! Way to make our day extra special.

21.01.2022 It is a known fact that oil-based stain and varnish requires substantial dry times between coats, sometimes up to two days for re-coating and several weeks until completely set! This can be an issue as you may have to pay tradesmen to come back to the premises several times, as well as delaying other trades entering. Not to mention the importance of keeping a pristine environment to prevent animal hair and dust settling on wet varnish! Due to the nature of the oil-based stain and varnish coatings, they require more time and effort to maintain. Re-coating may be required every 12-24 months, especially in areas with high traffic or are in direct sunlight, like staircases that are close to a large window or skylight. Water-based stain varnishes on the other hand, require less work, and time, to maintain due to its superior protection.

20.01.2022 Oil-based or water-based stain and varnish? While you may have heard from your uncles' mate that has been a builder for 48 years that oil-based stain lasts longer the truth is that this is an old school belief that is simply outdated. In fact, a water-based stand is more durable and lasts longer than oil-based stain and varnish as it represents newer technology. The water-based stain will stand the test of time that oil-based simply cant compete with.

20.01.2022 There are many colours of putty on the market. So which do you choose? One that matches the timber or the colour of the finish that you are using? In this video we cover three key points to using putty on a timber staircase.
