Rejuvenation & Maintenance

Rejuvenation & Maintenance

Oiled floors and joinery gain a richer patina as they get older (much like us). A little nourishment added to the wash-water, or occasionally buffed into areas of wear will ensure they maintain their beauty and make your house … a home.

Products You Can Trust

Natural House Company’s finishes are blended using Tung Nut Oil, Tree Resins, Plant Waxes, Micro Earthen Pigments, Essential Oils, Lead Free Dryers, Pure Solvents … and lots of passion. Most of our oils are made by us here in New Zealand, finishes that combine time honoured ingredients with the best of todays understanding.

We can proudly claim that a timber floor finished with our ‘Java Oil’ and easily maintained with the ‘Microwax System’, will provide a floor for life … never needing to be sanded again. Java High Solid Oil is used on the floors of many homes, galleries, restaurants and commercial buildings nationwide.

Satisfied Customers

"I wanted to write a testimonial for your site 🙂 Love your oils! In 2014 the team at Southern Cross Flutes fell in love with the quality of oils from Natural House Eco. At Southern Cross Flutes, based outside of Wellington New Zealand, we handcraft Native American Flutes for the world market. Obviously we needed an oil that didn’t leave any toxic residue on the flute, as it gets placed on a players lips! Since 2011 we had searched for an oil that was finely crafted without the harsh toxic chemicals found in other ‘natural’ branded wood oils. We’ve yet to find an oil superior in finish quality, application ease, aroma, durability, and cost, to the Natural House Eco range”. Southern Cross Flutes – www.southerncrossflutes.com

"The manuka oil is working brilliantly in our new macrocarpa pool house, and we now want to use it to refurbish the joinery in our rammed earth residence. We have already had rave reviews about the quality of your manuka stain from all of the people who have seen the pool house under construction.
