Hardwood & Floorboards Sanding
Our London-based floor sanding specialists utilize cutting-edge equipment designed to efficiently capture dust. We handle sawdust responsibly, ensuring proper disposal after completing the service, leaving your space clean and tidy [1]
In addition to sanding, we offer floor repair solutions to address damage caused by moisture or wear and tear. Our skilled craftsmen can re-fit or replace cracked boards and loose parquet blocks, restoring the floor to its former glory.
To ensure exceptional results, we combine modern techniques with traditional craftsmanship, delivering uniform, smooth, and authentic finishes.
We offer a wide range of pre-mixed stain colours, and our sealants are available in various sheens, including extra-matt, matt, satin, and gloss. The most effective way to achieve the desired colour is by showcasing samples on your floor.
This process involves applying wood floor staining agents to small areas of the floor before the final sanding, allowing clients to preview the outcome. The area is then re-sanded to eliminate any residual colour, stained with the chosen agent, and sealed for a flawless finish.

The top layer of engineered floors can range from 2.5 to 6 mm. Anything less is considered veneered products. The thickness of the real wood's top layer determines how many times the floors can be sanded and refinished.
By choosing our floor sanding service in London for your engineered wood flooring, you can trust that your property will exude a natural, welcoming ambience. Our experienced floor fitters possess the necessary tools and expertise to focus on removing only the sealant layer, preserving the integrity of the top layer as much as possible. If the floors are in poor condition or the top layer is insufficiently thick, we will advise you before proceeding with any work.

[1] Did you know that some of the finer sawdust, collected during the sanding, will be used to fill the gaps between the boards, as well as knots and cracks? It is mixed with a clear resin to produce a putty, which will be the same colour as your floor, and is a great way to get the smooth finish right.
