Do You Have a Question?

• Is lacquered finish better than hardwax-oil for my original floorboards?

  The short answer is lacquer. The timber of the original floorboards is pine - pine is a soft, porous wood, which makes it less suitable for sealants that rely on deep penetration, such as hardwax-oil. While hardwax-oil works well for hardwoods, lacquer creates a protective surface layer, making it a more versatile option. It offers superior protection for all wood types, including softwoods like pine, and will provide a more durable finish for your original floorboards.

• Oak stained in dark wood base and white grain effect

  Hi,

  This example is shown on oak timber. This type of finish is achieved by application of Active Stain on top of oak timber, flollowed by application of white hardwax-oil on top - buffed in and sealed with another clear coat of oil on top.

  Some active stains are available from Woca (Active stain 1, 2, 3 and 4) and white oils are available from Osmo, Fiddes, Treatex (and other brands). 

  The process of active stain is slow - takes about a day and oils are slow-drying. It may be worth looking for a pre-finished product with similar appearance, instead of starting from scratch on bare wood.

  Hope this helps.

• Is it possible to sand engineered wood flooring?

  Engineered wood floors can be sanded and the restoration process is done in the same way as hardwood or parquet floor sanding, allowing you to remove deeper dents and scratches and to renew the floor’s appearance.

  However, sanding engineered wood flooring should always be approached with extra care, because it is only the top layer of solid wood that is sandable, rather than the whole plank. Therefore, before you do any works on engineered floors, you need to make sure that the top layer is at least 3 mm thick to avoid any unrepeatable damages. You can do this by checking the thickness at door bars or around radiator pipes.

  We strongly advise hiring a professional floor sanding company for your engineered floor restoration rather than trying to do it yourself because if you do not have the required skills and knowledge, you can easily cause damage and may end up having to replace the floors all together.

And Some Frequently Asked Questions...

• Can you restore parquet flooring without sanding?

  Yes, it is sometimes possible to "restore" parquet flooring without full sanding, although the extent of the restoration will be limited. This non-sanding approach is typically suitable for floors with minimal surface wear, light scratches, or dullness, where the existing finish is still largely intact. Methods include buffing (screening) to lightly abrade the surface, and then applying a fresh coat of finish (re-coating or re-lacquering).

• Can I book floor sanding service on the weekend?

  Yes, our sanding and sealing service are available to book over the weekend. However, please note that this process is noisy, and noise restrictions often apply in flats and residential areas with blocks.

  If your property is a house, we highly encourage you to inform your neighbors about the upcoming work.

• How much does it cost to restore original floorboards?

  The cost to restore original floorboards starts with from £27 per square meter for sanding and a standard finish (like varnish or oil). This price can increase significantly depending on the floor's condition; for instance, extensive gap filling might add an extra £10 per square meter, while staining could be £10 per square meter. Factors like the amount of repair work needed for damaged or missing boards, the type of finish selected (some premium oils or lacquers are more expensive), and the complexity of removing old adhesives or multiple layers of paint will influence the final quotation.
