Before the renovation works...

The oak engineered wood flooring in this Central London property was overall looking tired and in desperate need of restoration. During our free survey, we did detailed inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all possible options.

Our client has decided to go for floor sanding of 72 sqm oak flooring and finishing the floors in matt Lacquer, after providing detailed quote with our floor restoration prices.

How we completed the renovation works...

One of the challenges we experienced while working on this project, was the amount of furniture, which we had to work around in stages.

Engineered wood flooring is available in 3 options of thickness, each of which can have variable real oak wood top layer. The restoration of the oak floors will start with coarse grid to remove old finish and achieve good, flat level.

Sanding the floors with fine grids (80 - 120 gr) and a good rotary buff to the oak timber surface with high grid buffing screens is the most important stage in the preparation of the wooden flooring for finishing.

The engineered wood flooring was consequently sealed with 1 coat of primer and 2 coats of Bona Traffic Lacquer in matt sheen with another light screen buff between the coats, for an excellent final touch to the finish.

Did you know this about oak flooring?

Oak is the king. It is hard, beautiful and resilient. While all other timbers may change colour and shape with time, oak does not (or very little) - it is eternal. Because its quite popular, oak planks and blocks, are available in various sizes when repairs to oak floors and parquet are needed.
