Floor Sanding & Fitting Project Gallery

Project Overview

This project involved the professional installation of laminate flooring at a property in East London, E1W. The client required a quality floor that would stand up to daily use and complement their interior. Our fitting team assessed the subfloor condition, carried out any necessary preparation work, and fitted the new floor to a high standard.

Before the Work

Prior to installation, the existing floor covering was inspected and the subfloor was prepared to ensure it was flat, dry, and suitable for the new laminate. Any existing floor covering was lifted and disposed of cleanly before the fitting work began.

Our Approach

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

• Door Frame Trimming
• Laminate Floor Installation
• Skirting Boards Installation (incl. materials)
• Thresholds & Fitting (inc. materials)

The Result

The completed laminate installation looked clean and finished throughout. Joins are tight, edges are neat, and the floor sits flat and stable. Beading and threshold strips were fitted where required to complete the job properly. The client was pleased with both the quality of the work and the appearance of the new floor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does laminate installation take?
Most fitting jobs are completed within one to two days. Larger areas or more detailed layouts such as herringbone patterns take longer due to the additional cutting and positioning involved.

Do I need underlay?
Yes, underlay is required for most floor types and helps with insulation, sound deadening, and levelling minor subfloor imperfections. We can supply and fit appropriate underlay as part of the installation.

How much does floor fitting cost in London?
Fitting costs typically range from £35 to £60 per square metre depending on floor type and complexity. We provide a full written quote before starting any work.

Project Overview

This project involved the professional sanding and restoration of an engineered wood floor in a residential property in Lee, SE12. Properties in this area often feature engineered flooring as a practical and stylish solution, but over time, even high-quality floors can lose their finish due to regular use.

Our team carried out a full on-site assessment, checking for:

• Wear layer thickness and sanding suitability
• Surface damage and finish condition
• Any boards requiring minor attention before restoration

Condition Before Restoration

The floor showed typical signs of ageing and wear, including scratches, dull areas, and breakdown of the original protective finish. These issues are common in homes around Lee, particularly in high-traffic areas such as living rooms and hallways.

We carefully planned the sanding depth to ensure the engineered boards were restored safely without compromising their structural integrity.

Our Approach

To achieve a high-quality and durable finish, the following work was carried out:

• Engineered wood sanding, buffing, and lacquering
• Removal and disposal of existing carpets/laminate flooring
• Surface preparation to ensure an even and consistent finish
• Application of a professional-grade protective coating

Each step was completed with precision to ensure the floor not only looked better but also performed well over time.

The Final Result

Once the restoration was complete, the transformation was clear. The sanding process brought out the natural texture and detail of the engineered wood, while the new finish provided a smooth, uniform appearance.

The restored floor now offers:

• A refreshed and modern look
• Improved durability for everyday use
• A clean, polished finish that enhances the overall space

The client was left with a floor that looks revitalised and is fully protected for continued use in a busy household.

This project was completed in Lee SE12, a well-connected residential area in South East London known for its mix of period homes and modern developments. We regularly carry out floor sanding and restoration work in nearby areas such as Grove Park, Blackheath, and Hither Green, where engineered flooring is a popular choice for its balance of style and practicality.

Project Overview

This project involved the professional sanding and restoration of an existing wood floor at a property in NW2, London. 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:

• Floorboards - Sand, Buff & Lacquer
• Gap Filling

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.
