What We Work With

Floor Types & Finishing Options

We work across all wooden floor types and offer a full range of professional finishing options — every combination tailored to your timber and your taste.

Types of Wooden Floors We Service
Hardwood Floors

Oak, maple, walnut, teak and all solid hardwood species — the foundation of classic floor restoration.

Parquet Flooring

Geometric and herringbone parquet patterns sanded and refinished with precision to restore crisp definition.

Engineered Wood

Engineered boards carefully sanded within the wear-layer tolerance for a refreshed, factory-quality finish.

Pine & Softwood

Softwood floors restored with gentle sanding techniques that preserve character and avoid over-removal.

Cork Flooring

Specialised light sanding and sealing that revives cork floors without compromising their natural cushion.

Bamboo Flooring

Eco-friendly bamboo boards refinished using tailored sanding pressure and compatible water-based sealers.

Finishing Options
Polyurethane Finish

Tough, water-resistant coating available in matte, satin, semi-gloss or high-gloss sheens. Ideal for high-traffic areas.

Oil-Based Finish

A natural-look finish that penetrates deep into the wood fibres, nourishing and enhancing the grain from within.

Water-Based Finish

Quick-drying, low-odour formula with excellent long-term durability — the eco-conscious professional's choice.

Wax Finish

Traditional finish that delivers a soft, warm, natural sheen — perfect for period properties and rustic interiors.

Hard Wax Oil

The best of both worlds — combines the penetrating nourishment of oil with the surface protection of wax.

Why It Matters

Benefits of Professional
Floor Restoration

Investing in professional sanding and polishing pays dividends in beauty, hygiene and long-term property value — for years after the last coat dries.

Restored Beauty

Brings back the original character of wooden floors — removing decades of wear, scratches and discolouration to reveal the natural warmth beneath.

Extended Lifespan

Removing surface damage and applying fresh protective coatings can add many years — sometimes decades — to the serviceable life of your floor.

Improved Hygiene

Sanding removes embedded dirt, allergens and bacteria hiding in scratches and gaps, creating a cleaner, healthier surface for your home or workplace.

Higher Property Value

Professionally finished wooden floors consistently rank among the most impactful improvements for enhancing the appearance and market value of any property.

Long-Lasting Protection

Quality sealants and finishes form a durable barrier against spills, scuffs and UV fading — protecting the floor through years of daily use.

Easier Maintenance

A smooth, sealed surface is far easier to sweep, mop and maintain — reducing cleaning time and extending the intervals between full restoration services.
