Floor Sanding
Our professional floor sanding service utilises 98% dust-free machinery to restore wooden floors while minimising mess and disruption. We handle pine, oak, and engineered wood surfaces with precision, preparing them for staining or sealing. Our team's 27 years of experience ensures even the most worn floors achieve a smooth, uniform finish ready for protective coatings.
Staining
We offer custom staining solutions using light-fast dyes that enhance wood grain while achieving desired colour tones. From natural oak to dramatic ebony finishes, our expertise ensures even application that highlights the floor's inherent beauty without blotching. Special techniques allow for subtle washes or bold transformations while maintaining wood integrity.
Gap Filling
Our flexible mastic gap filling uses Bona Gap Master and similar products to address floorboard separations without risking future cracking. Available in multiple colours, this method accommodates natural wood movement while maintaining aesthetic continuity. We advise on suitability based on floor type and environmental conditions.
Sealing
We apply premium waterborne polyurethane varnishes and hardwax oils tailored to each floor's requirements. Three-coat systems ensure durability while allowing natural wood characteristics to shine through. Our sealing process creates protective barriers against wear while maintaining the floor's authentic appearance and texture.
Repairs
From fireplace removals to board replacements, our repair service seamlessly integrates reclaimed materials with existing floors. We specialise in parquet block restoration, stair tread refinishing, and structural fixes that preserve historical character while meeting modern functionality requirements through careful matching and blending techniques.
