Timber Floor Finishes
When it comes to timber floor finishes, we offer a variety of different coatings to finish your flooring. The four main types of finishes we offer are oil-based finishes, oil modified urethanes, polyurethane (solvent borne and waterborne) and penetrating oils and waxes. These days the polyurethane (solvent borne or water borne) finish is very popular, as it is highly durable and needs less maintenance than other finishes. Customers are also favouring direct stain and wood washing, which is available in a range of colours. The choice is ultimately yours and we are more than happy to work with you to find the best finish that suits your home.

Dustless Floor Sanding
If you are concerned about the dust produced during floor sanding, we offer the latest dustless machines. While the procedure itself is not dustless, it dramatically minimises the dust left in your home after the sanding. That way you can move straight back into your home after a general clean.

Floor Coverings
It is our aim to offer our customers with a complete flooring package. That’s why we are committed to removing existing floor covers and disposing of them for clients. We endeavour to take the hassle out of flooring, so customers can simply enjoy their new flooring.

Floor sanding & polishing process

Preparation:
Before sanding commences it is very important to prepare the flooring. Any nails projecting from the boards must be punched, as they can cause great damage to the sanding equipment. Tacks or staples must also be removed for the same reason. In the instance where the floor has previously been coated with adhesive, it is important to also remove this layer, as it can clog the sanding machinery.

Sanding:
Firstly the floor will be sanded with rough, medium and fine papers, with belt drum orbital and disc sanders to achieve a flat, smooth finish.

Polishing:
Once the floor has been sanded and vacuumed, the finish is applied with fine sanding between coats to obtain a beautiful finish.
