What should New Westminster homeowners know about their floors?
New Westminster was founded in 1859 and served as the first capital of the Colony of British Columbia. Its heritage neighbourhoods — especially Queen’s Park, with its protected heritage conservation area — include many homes over a century old. Original fir floors in these houses have often been sanded before, patched with mismatched boards or covered with layers of old finish.
Restoring older floors requires a measured approach: assessing remaining timber, planning replacement boards and selecting a finish that respects the home. In Queensborough and the riverfront Quay, new hardwood installations also call for moisture checks and review of any strata requirements.

Older fir floors may be thin from past sanding; restraint protects the remaining wood.
