Why Choose Us for a Wood Floor Sanding Service in Kensington?

We have preferences in sanding hardwood here’s the reason why: the procedure is considerably easier and takes less time, compared to engineered or parquet floor sanding. Also, solid wood floors can be charming and homey, especially if you’ve opted for exotic timber. In general, sanding newly laid floors is mandatory, to level the surface, while old ones need sanding, so the old worn wood finish can be renovated. The process usually changes the overall appearance and character of the room.

Stress- and Dust-Free Wood Floor Sanding Service with Us in Kensington

How to be sure the floor won’t be ruined after the procedure? Methods and techniques depend on various things the team should take into consideration from the very beginning. The condition of the timber, flatness and even the current kind of finish on the floor may influence our approach and preliminary plan for any individual project. To be able to guarantee satisfying results, a previous test is recommendable, to find out how easily the surface sands off. Hardwood floors are thick enough, but our team prefers to make sure for themselves!

The sanding itself involves several stages, synchronised with the floor’s condition.

• The first step is removing any screw or nail heads, we usually use a metal detector to find even the hidden ones.
• We start with around 24 or 40-grit sandpaper, up to 120 grit for the last sand.
• The dust left off is ideal for filling holes or gaps between the planks.
• We carry out a couple of final sands to even the surface and prepare it for the closing finish.
• We use wood finish products for the staining, sealing and recoating procedures that usually follow the sanding.

What if my floor needs repairing? Won’t be the first, we’ve seen and treated countless wood damages. The crucial point here is to correctly identify the type of timber and the method used back when the floor was being laid (glued, nailed, a floating base, etc.), to repair anything. We have experts for the job, but it would be helpful if you give us the name of the supplier of the timber so we get you a match, as close as possible to the current wood. Still in doubt?
