Oak Parquet Flooring Restoration with Satin Finish

Before the works...

The oak parquet flooring in this Belgravia house was overall looking tired and in urgent need of restoration. During our obligation-free survey, we did a thorough inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all possible options.

After receiving our quote with pricing for parquet flooring restoration, our client has decided to go for floor sanding of 35 sqm oak parquet flooring and finishing the floors in satin Lacquer.

How we completed the renovation works...

Parquet flooring renovation requires years of experience, skills and the right floor sanding equipment. Depending on the overall condition of the floors, the initial parquet floor sanding may start with coarser or medium grid. The purpose of this step is not only to remove the previous finish and get the floors to bare wood, but also to provide a good level throughout the entire floor. Some older parquet floors may require more thorough work at this stage.

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 parquet flooring was consequently sealed with 1 coat of primer and 3 coats of Junckers HT700 Lacquer in satin sheen with another light screen buff between the coats, for an excellent final touch to the finish.
