3  |   Ealing  |   September 2024

Professional floor sanding and restoration in Ealing, W5. Our team restored this parquet floor using dustless sanding equipment and quality finishes. The result is a clean, smooth surface that will last for years.

Case studies

Project Overview

This project involved the professional sanding and restoration of an existing wood floor at a property in Ealing, W5. The floor had seen years of daily wear and was in need of attention to bring it back to a quality finish. Our team carried out a full assessment before starting work, checking for any boards that needed attention alongside the main sanding and finishing work.

Before the Work

Before work began, the floor showed typical signs of wear. Surface scratches, dull patches, and general finish deterioration were present. A thorough survey was carried out to plan the correct sanding depth, assess board condition, and choose the most appropriate finish for the space.

Our Approach

The following services were carried out as part of this project:

  • Gap Filling
  • Parquet - Sand, Buff & Lacquer
  • Thresholds & Fitting (inc. materials)
  • Loose Blocks Glue- Down

The Result

Once the sanding and finishing process was complete, the floor was transformed. The wood grain was opened up and brought back to life, the surface was smooth and even, and the new finish provided lasting protection. The client was left with a floor that looked, and performed, as good as new.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does floor sanding take?
Most residential sanding jobs are completed in one to two days, depending on floor size and condition. Lacquering or oiling adds further drying and curing time, which we factor into the job schedule.

Do I need to vacate the property during sanding?
Modern dustless sanding equipment keeps dust to a minimum, but we recommend keeping pets and young children clear of the area during the work. Most clients remain in their property throughout.

How much does floor sanding cost in London?
Prices typically range from £25 to £45 per square metre depending on floor condition, finish type, and any repair work required. Gap filling and board replacement are priced separately if needed.

4  |   South Norwood  |   September 2024

Professional floorboard sanding and restoration in South Norwood, SE25. Our team replaced damaged boards, filled the gaps, sanded, buffed and lacquered the floor to a clean, even finish with thresholds completed throughout.

Case studies

Project Overview

This project involved floor sanding and restoration at a property in South Norwood, SE25. The client required a professional service and chose us after reviewing local options. Work was carried out by our experienced team with minimal disruption to the household.

Before the Work

The property required a detailed assessment before work could begin. Floor condition, subfloor stability and the scope of work across each room were all agreed with the client during the initial visit.

Our Approach

  • Floorboards - Replacement (incl. materials)
  • Floorboards - Sand, Buff & Lacquer
  • Gap Filling
  • Thresholds & Fitting (inc. materials)
  • Floorboards Staggering ( 2 sqm)

The Result

 Completed floor, SE25

All work was completed to specification and signed off by the client on the day. Typical costs for this type of work in London range from £25-45 per sqm for sanding and finishing, depending on floor condition, area size and finish selected.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does floorboard sanding and restoration take in South Norwood? For a project of this scope — including board replacement, gap filling and three coats of lacquer — work typically takes two to three days. The lacquer coats need time to dry between applications, which is factored into the schedule so the floor is ready for use as quickly as possible.

Are replacement floorboards easy to match in SE25 properties? South Norwood has a large stock of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, and original floorboards in these properties are typically wide-plank pine that can be difficult to match with new timber off the shelf. Where possible we source reclaimed boards of the correct width and thickness, which bed in naturally with the surrounding original floor once sanded and finished together. New timber tends to stand out until it has aged, whereas reclaimed boards blend immediately.

<p">What is floorboard staggering and why does it matter? Staggering refers to offsetting the end joints of replacement boards so they do not all line up in a single line across the floor. A staggered layout distributes movement more evenly across the floor and looks far more natural once finished — a row of aligned end joints draws the eye in a way that staggered joints do not.

Do you cover South Norwood and the surrounding SE25 area? Yes. We work regularly across SE25 and the nearby postcodes including Crystal Palace, Norwood Junction, Thornton Heath and Penge. Call us on 020 88309782 or book a free site visit to discuss your floor.
