Floor Restoration FAQs
Our machinery has its own built in dust extraction that removes a vast majority of the dust from sanding, with a very minimal amount produced; we then vacuum the area with M/H class vacuums before applying your chosen finish.
For finer dust, such as Granwood, we also use Our Bona Class H DCS (Dust Containment System) extraction units to capture about 95 % of the airborne dust created.
Light foot traffic is fine after four hours. With normal use after 8-12 hours. It is best to wait 24 hours before replacing heavy furniture and seven days before laying rugs or close-fitting items.
Absolutely. We source reclaimed blocks where possible and can machine new timber to replicate uncommon patterns so the repair is seamless.
Yes—provided the top wear layer is at least 3 mm thick. We confirm this during the free site survey.
Yes. All workmanship is covered by a snag-free guarantee, and manufacturer warranties apply to the finishes we use.
They are. All our lacquers and oils are low-VOC and EN 71-3 compliant, making them safe once fully cured.
Absolutely. We can source reclaimed or new solid or engineered oak in similar grain grades, then custom-tint the boards on site so colour and patina blend with the surrounding floor.
Yes. You can choose an oil, from manufacturers such as Osmo and Bona and we’ll recommend the best option based on sheen preference, foot traffic and maintenance routine.
Very little. Our dust extraction captures a majority of airborne particles at source. Doorways can be sealed with plastic sheeting if required, and we vacuum and wipe work areas before we leave.
Prices start from £25 + VAT per m² for sanding and refinishing. After a free site survey, we’ll give you a fixed, itemised, quotation covering any repairs, staining or additional coats you request.
In an average home, a three‑coat water‑based lacquer keeps its protective strength for seven to ten years before it needs a light screen‑and‑re‑coat. Hard‑wax oils usually need a maintenance coat every two to three years because they sit within the grain rather than on top. In high‑traffic commercial settings—shops, cafés, school corridors—expect to refresh the finish every three to five years to prevent wear‑through.
A clear lacquer adds a faint honey tone that gently deepens the natural colour of flooring, while modern “raw‑look” lacquers stay almost invisible if you prefer the freshly‑sanded look. Oils usually enrich grain contrast a little more, giving warmer, richer hues. If you’re concerned about darkening, we can apply a test patch in an out‑of‑sight corner so you can see the final shade before we proceed.
Floor restoration is the process of returning an existing wooden floor to near‑new condition. It usually involves replacing loose or damaged boards or blocks, sanding away the old finish and applying fresh coats of lacquer or oil to protect and enhance the timber.
Refinishing is almost always more economical. Full replacement means new timber, adhesive, labour and disposal of the old floor, often costing two to three times more than a professional sand‑and‑seal.
Yes—original boards add character and value to period homes. Restored floors can last another 20 + years, cost less than new flooring and avoid the environmental impact of ripping out usable timber.
Yes, we specialise in wood floor sanding and restoration for schools across Birmingham and the West Midlands. Whether it’s a school hall, gymnasium, classroom, or corridor, we have the tools and expertise to bring tired wooden floors back to life.
Our team works with all types of school flooring, including parquet, strip flooring, and sports court surfaces. We use advanced, dust-free sanding equipment from Bona and Lagler, ensuring minimal disruption to your school environment. Every project is completed using low-VOC, child-safe sealants, making it suitable for both primary and secondary schools.
