Our Dust-Free Sanding Process

One of the most common concerns during floor restoration is the mess caused by traditional sanding. That’s why we use a modern dust-free sanding system that captures airborne particles before they spread. This ensures a cleaner, healthier environment during the restoration process and significantly reduces cleanup time afterwards.

Our equipment is fitted with powerful extraction units that trap dust at the source, making our services ideal for schools, churches, offices, and public buildings. With our dust-free floor sanding in London, you can enjoy beautiful results without the disruption. We also offer protective measures to ensure your home remains clean and safe throughout the process.

Expert Parquet Floor Sanding & Restoration

Parquet flooring requires a specialist approach due to its intricate geometric patterns and multi-directional wood grain. Our experienced team uses tailored sanding methods and premium-grade finishes to restore both traditional and modern parquet floors with care and precision.

We handle everything from restoring old parquet flooring to gap filling and colour matching, ensuring seamless repairs and long-lasting results. Whether your floor features classic herringbone or decorative mosaic designs, we’ll preserve its original beauty while improving durability and wear resistance.

Looking to revive a parquet floor in a commercial building? We also offer commercial parquet sanding services designed to meet the demands of high-traffic environments.

Floor Sealing & Finishing Options

After sanding, the final finish you choose plays a crucial role in both the appearance and protection of your wood flooring. We offer a complete range of wood floor finishes and applications tailored to your lifestyle, interior design, and floor type.

Our sealing options include highly durable lacquers for heavy-use areas, elegant oils that bring out the grain and warmth of the wood, and hardwax oils for a more natural, breathable finish. We’ll walk you through the benefits of each, helping you decide between a matte, satin, or glossy look based on your preferences and needs.

We also provide wood floor staining for those who want to change or enhance the natural tone of their flooring. And if you’re working with older or patchy floors, our colour matching service ensures a beautifully even finish from edge to edge.

How Our Professional Floor Sanding Process Works

We follow a carefully structured approach to deliver consistent, high-quality results on every project. Our floor sanding process begins with a detailed assessment of your flooring, identifying any structural issues, previous coatings, or areas needing gap filling or floorboard repairs.

We then carry out sanding in multiple stages, using high-performance equipment fitted with dust-extraction technology to remove layers of old finishes and smooth the surface progressively with finer abrasives. Edges, corners, and difficult areas like stair treads are handled with specialised tools for a perfectly uniform result.

Once the floor is clean and level, we apply your chosen sealant or finish to enhance the look and protect the wood. We also offer colour matching and custom staining services to help achieve the exact tone or style you envision. This comprehensive process ensures your restored floor is beautiful, durable, and ready for daily use.

The Benefits of Choosing Professional Floor Sanding

Opting for professional wood floor sanding brings long-term value and significantly better results than any DIY approach. Our trained technicians use advanced belt and edge sanding machines that deliver a smooth, even finish without gouging or damaging your floors. The result is a more refined appearance and a longer-lasting surface.

By removing old finishes, scratches, and surface imperfections, we not only improve aesthetics but also restore the structural integrity of the wood. Sanding can also help reduce indoor allergens by eliminating dust and buildup trapped in worn-out coatings. With our dust-free technology, even sensitive environments like schools and homes with children can benefit from safe, clean restoration.

Professional sanding also opens the door to applying new finishes, whether that’s a fresh floor stain, a protective sealant, or a completely new look using our colour matching service. The added durability, enhanced appearance, and increased lifespan of your floor make this a smart investment for any property.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wood Floor Sanding & Restoration

How long does the floor sanding process take in an average London home?

In most London homes, sanding and refinishing a standard-sized room (around 20m²) can be completed within a day, while larger or multi-room projects may take 2–3 days. This includes the sanding, gap filling if required, and applying multiple coats of finish. Drying times for finishes vary, so we’ll always give you a schedule so you know exactly when your floor will be ready for use.

Will floor sanding be very noisy or disruptive in my flat?

There will be some noise during the sanding stage, but our modern, professional sanding equipment is designed to keep it to a minimum. We also use powerful dust-extraction systems, so your home stays clean and disruption is kept as low as possible — an important consideration in London flats where neighbours are close by.

Do I need to remove furniture and carpet before you sand my floors?

Yes — for the best results, the room should be clear of furniture and any floor coverings. We can assist with removing carpet or vinyl flooring and help move heavier items if arranged in advance. This ensures we can sand every part of the floor evenly without obstruction.

Can you sand floors in historic or listed buildings in London?

Absolutely. We have extensive experience working on floors in listed properties and heritage sites. Our team uses careful sanding techniques that preserve the character of older floors while restoring their beauty. We also follow any special conservation guidelines required for listed buildings.

Which London areas and boroughs do you cover for floor sanding services?

We cover the whole of Greater London, including all boroughs such as Westminster, Camden, Islington, Kensington & Chelsea, Hackney, and beyond. Whether you’re in the heart of the city or on the outskirts, we can arrange a convenient time to restore your floors.

Can engineered wood floors be sanded and refinished?

Many engineered wood floors can be sanded, provided the top wear layer is thick enough — usually at least 3mm. We’ll always assess your floor first to confirm if sanding is possible without damaging the structure of the board.

What finishes can I choose after sanding (lacquer, oil)?

We offer a range of finishes, each with its own benefits:

• Lacquer – Durable and easy to maintain, ideal for high-traffic areas.
• Hardwax oil – Enhances the natural beauty of wood while offering good protection.

We’ll help you choose the best option based on your lifestyle, design preferences, and the type of wood you have.
