How to tell if your engineered wood floors need restoration and sanding?
● After you have mopped and brushed the floor, is it dull?
● Has the floor lost the sheen that it had when it was new?
● Has the floor been marked by foot traffic or furniture?
● Is the floor harder to clean? If so, the previous lacquer or oil may have begun to break down.

Our engineered wood floor restoration process:
● Step 1 – We begin the restoration with a free site survey. We estimate the cost and agree on the best approach to meet your needs. A convenient time and date for the work to be completed out will also be arranged. Our team will always arrive punctually, the job will be finished to the highest standard, and minimal disruption will be caused to your surroundings.
● Step 2 – The restoration will begin with sanding. This will strip any previously applied lacquer or oils to bring back the bare boards. Our industrial belt and planetary sanding machines will smooth the boards flat for a seamless finish.
● Step 3 – We then use our dustless edging machines to remove the old sealers around the edges right up to the skirting. To make sure that no fine scratches are left behind after sanding we use our three head finishing machines. After this, the floor will be smooth and ready for the sealer.
● Step 4 – The customer can then pick the look of their floor from one of our different finishes and stain options. We demo samples on the floor so you can get a good idea. To give the floor a tough finish with no colour change, we can apply a natural lacquer. If you want to modify the look of the floor completely, we can use a stain.
● Step 5 – We apply a base coat. This will create the first stage of protection.
● Step 6 – When the base coat is dry we carry out a final sanding to remove any areas that push up from the base coat.
● Step 7 – We will apply two coats of top finish. This is a 1 or 2 pack lacquer; it depends on the condition of the wood. We can also apply oils if there has been a colour change or if a higher level of smoothness is requested.
● Step 8 – When the floor is dry, our work is done. The floor is ready for handover. We can help with brining back your furniture. For the following few hours there can only be light foot traffic with socks and slippers.

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 engineered 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
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.
