WoodMaster’s floor polishing process:
- Step 1 – First we conduct a survey and written estimate, without charge, to determine the requirements of the floor and best potential options. When we’ve agreed on the full cost of the project we’ll arrange a suitable time for staff to attend. Our punctual teams always arrive on time see the job through till the end, with minimum disruption to you or your business.
- Step 2 – Old sealers completely removed around all edges right to the skirting boards using our dustless edging machines. We then treat the floor with our 3 head finishing machine, which removes any micro fine scratches from the earlier sanding process. Floor is left smooth and ready for the application of sealer.
- Step 4 – Finishes / stain options are demonstrated on the floor so clients can see a real life example of how the finish will look. At this point we can apply a natural lacquer which gives a natural and lasting finish, and we could even apply a stain to add colour as desired and change the look of the floor completely.
- Step 5 – Add a base coat to fill up the wood and give it its initial stage of protection.
- Step 6 – Once the base coat is dry we conduct a sanding of the surface to remove any areas that prickle up from the base coat of sealer, preparing the floor for the final finish.
- Step 7 – Next we apply two coats of top finish, which can be a 1 or 2 pack lacquer, depending on the environment. We can also apply oils when a colour change or an extra level of smoothness is required.
- Step 8 – Once dry, the restoration is now finished and ready for hand over, and within a few hours furniture can be moved back.

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.
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.
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.
