Benefits of Sanding and Restoring a Wooden Floor

Refreshes Worn Surfaces: Sanding can reduce surface scratches, worn coatings and some marks while preparing the timber for refinishing.
Retains Existing Flooring: Where the timber is suitable for restoration, sanding and refinishing can allow the existing wooden floor to remain in use rather than replacing it solely because the surface is worn.
Choice of Finishes: Depending on the timber and how the room is used, suitable stains, oils, lacquers or other finishes can be discussed to achieve the required appearance and protection.
Prepares for Finishing: Sanding prepares suitable timber for the agreed protective finish, selected according to the floor, room use and required appearance.
Restores Suitable Existing Timber: Where appropriate, restoration can retain existing wooden flooring and avoid unnecessary replacement of serviceable boards.

Our Wood Floor Sanding Process

We assess each floor before deciding the appropriate sanding, repair and finishing process.

Assessment: We inspect the floor’s construction, timber, condition, previous treatment and any areas that may require repair before agreeing the work.
Sanding: Professional sanding equipment is used with appropriate abrasive grades to remove a controlled amount of the worn surface and prepare suitable timber for finishing.
Dust-Controlled Sanding: We use professional sanding equipment with effective dust extraction to capture most sanding dust at source, helping to minimise airborne dust during the work. No floor sanding process is completely dust-free.
Finishing: A suitable oil, lacquer or other agreed finish can be applied according to the timber, room use and required appearance.
Aftercare: We can provide care guidance appropriate to the finish applied to the floor.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave and Diego have been absolutely wonderful for us! Once we got the keys to our new place, my partner and I got to work tearing out the sad old carpet and revealing some incredibly tired floorboards. We had just a week from when we finishing tearing out the carpets to when we needed to move in, but any stress we had about not getting the floors done before then was unfounded as Dave and Diego worked miracles. I’d been in contact with Dave a couple weeks earlier while shopping around for quotes, and when I got back to him they managed to not only schedule us in at incredibly late notice, but they also managed to finish all our floors in just three days, accompanied with advice for floor care while we moved in as they were still curing, and instructions for long term care.

As you can see, their work completely transformed the space. They were lovely and easy to communicate with and did excellent work, and all was very well priced and affordable compared to other quotes we received, and I’d be more than happy to recommend them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience with David and Diego. They were flexible and able to come on short notice. Very happy with the finish- the job included a lot of tricky old boards which I was very hapoy with the attention to detail on the gap filling, the reclaimed boards sourced, custom staining of new board to match.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave and Diego did an amazing job with the floors. Really friendly and professional team, and gave great advice. The team went above and beyond, I would definitely recommend them. Gaps between boards were filled well, screws well hidden, short boards replaced, and they were very helpful with picking final finish.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Diego and team did a terrific job on my floors, both with insulation, sanding and finishing. The quote and payment process with Dave was very easy and more to the point accurate. They were also a really nice team of people. I would highly recommend them for work with wooden floors. They did what they said they would, for the agreed price and in the agreed timescale. Thank you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does floor sanding cost in Shoreditch?

There’s no single price, because it depends on the room or floor size, the type and condition of the timber, whether any boards need repair or gap filling, and the finish you choose. A studio flat off Curtain Road is a very different job from a large loft conversion or gallery space. We assess the floor first, then give you a clear, no-obligation quote so you know exactly what’s included before any work starts.

Do you sand floors in offices, studios and commercial spaces as well as homes?

Yes. Alongside homes and flats, we work in the offices, co-working spaces, studios, galleries and boutiques common across Shoreditch. Commercial floors often need a tougher finish and careful scheduling around opening or working hours, and we can plan the work — including evenings or weekends where needed — to keep disruption to your business down.

Can you restore the original timber floors in a warehouse or loft conversion?

Often, yes. Many Shoreditch conversions kept their original wide-board or industrial timber floors, and these can usually be sanded and refinished rather than replaced, which preserves the character that makes them appealing. Where boards are split, stained or badly worn we repair or replace those sections and blend them in. We check the board thickness first, since heavily used old timber can only take a limited number of sands over its life.

Can you sand engineered wood floors too?

Yes, but engineered boards can only be sanded if the top solid-wood layer — the wear layer — is thick enough. Some engineered floors in Shoreditch’s newer apartments and developments have a thin wear layer that allows only a light sand, or none at all. We check the board type and thickness first, so you don’t risk sanding through the surface.

Is the sanding process really dust-free?

We use dust-extraction equipment that captures most of the dust at source, which keeps the working conditions dust-controlled and far cleaner than older sanding methods. No process removes every particle, but the reduction in mess is significant, which matters in an occupied flat, a shared building or a working office, studio or shop where cleanliness is essential.
