The WoodMaster solid wood floor restoration process:
● Step 1 – Free survey and written estimate. We discuss the requirements of the floor and the best restoration solutions. We then agree on the full cost for the project and book suitable dates for the restoration to be done.
● Step 2 – Once we arrive we begin by sanding the boards to remove old oils and lacquer. Our industrial belt and planetary sanding machines create the best possible finish.
● Step 3 – Stripping away the old sealer around all edges right up to the skirting boards with our dustless edging machine. We then use our 3 head finishing machine to remove any remaining scratches. This leaves the wooden floor ready for the first coat of sealer.
● Step 4 – We demonstrate stain and finish options. We apply these to the floor so you know how it’ll look when the work is done. We can apply a natural lacquer or if you prefer we can use a stain to change the appearance of the floor.
● Step 5 – A base fills up the wood grain. This is the primary stage of seal protection.
● Step 6 – When the base coat has dried we carry out a light sanding of the floor. This fixes any areas that spike up from the base coat of the sealer. This step prepares the floor for the top coat finish.
● Step 7 – We apply 2 coats of top finish, this can be a 1 or 2 pack lacquer. If a higher level of smoothness is needed or if there has been a colour change, we also apply oils.
● Step 8 – Once the floor is dry, it is ready for sign-off. You can walk on the floor in socks and slippers after a couple of hours.
At the end of the restoration, we leave you with maintenance advice and after-care products are available for purchase.

FAQs
Yes, no problem. The sanding process will be selected so that we cut deep enough to remove the scratches and damage that is present. Also if Some holes and grooves are too deep to sand we can advise on a filing method that will improve the appearance of these areas.
We are happy to give a ballpark figure from pictures and room sizes, as this can help customer budgeting on renovation projects if they are unsure whether to restore or replace, but ultimately we would need to carry out a full survey and demo before any work can take place.
Yes, we are happy to carry out a free demo on your wooden floor. The best way for us to do this is to bring one of the smaller dustless edging machines and sand 1 board x 1m of linear length. This will show the natural colour the wood returns to and we can then discuss which product is best to return the wood to the colour or look of your preference. The demo is also great as it can allow us to work out how many sanding grits and processes are required, which also helps with firming up a fixed cost for the project.
The length of time required for the floor to dry depends on the type of product that is used. We will advise you once work is complete.
Depending on the level of damage and thickness of old surface finishes, most household projects under 50 sqm take 1.5 days. On the first day we can sand the areas and get the base coat on. This is left to dry and then we return the following morning to start applying the 2 top coats. Again, smaller rooms with furniture take longer, whereas bigger open spaces which are completely clear can be completed in a timely fashion.
Every job is different but during the free survey we measure up, do a free demonstration clean to show the results we can achieve, and from this we send over a full proposal for you to browse at your own leisure. We do not give prices on the day or put you under any pressure for an answer there and then
All products used are within the manufacturer’s guidelines, and where applicable your flooring manufacture own brand products can be used.
Depending on the type of wood and condition, excellent results can be achieved with our restoration services as we are bringing back a fresh new layer of the wood. However, an old Victorian pine floor will always look aged and have patina but this is often seen as a positive with the character of a period property.
