Before the works...
The oak engineered wood flooring in this Hampton Wick house was looking tired and in timely need of refinishing. During our free site survey, we did detailed inspection of the floors & discussed with the client all available options, followed by detailed quote with our floor restoration & repairs pricing for engineered wood flooring.
Our client has decided to go for floor sanding, staining and gap filling of 64 sqm oak engineered wood flooring and finishing the floors in matt Lacquer.
How we carried out this oak engineered wood flooring renovation...
One of the challenges we experienced during the floor works was to complete the floor works in stages, due to bulky pieces of furniture, which could not be removed from the rooms.
Engineered wood flooring comes with different thickness of the top layer. During the initial survey, we have checked the remaining thickness however, our team will double check again, there is sufficient thickness before starting the floor sanding works.
During the oak engineered floor renovation, the timber floors are going through a sanding process of levelling with coarser grids, finishing with finer grids, and finally buffing, prior to sealing & between the coats, for outstanding results.
Our works included approx. 64 sqm oak engineered wood flooring floor sanding and finishing in matt lacquer. The sealing went down with 1 coat of primer and 2 coats of Bona Mega lacquer.
We also carried out gap filling as part of the wood floor sanding process. We aim to apply the resin filler with saw dust in late hours of the working day, so it settles properly overnight and we can repeat it on the following day, if required. The resin gap filling is after that removed by next stages of the floor sanding process in medium grids.
Our team prepared few samples on the unfinished sanded timber surface for the client to approve prior to application of the finish. The client chose to go for staining their engineered wood flooring in beautiful jacobean oak colour to compliment their interior.
Overall, this floor restoration project in Hampton Wick was completed as originally planned and to the delight of the client.
