See What Our Clients from Cockfosters Say About Us...

• ★★★★★

  FloorWorks were excellent from start to finish. They always answered my questions and I did ask a lot :-). Rosie and Martin provided good advise and recommendations. Dmitry the engineer who did the insulation was highly professional and experience. I would definitely recommend FloorWorks

  Mahmood Haji, landlord from Cockfosters, EC1
• ★★★★★

  I explored a number of flooring companies to compare pricing and to get a feel for the integrity of the companies, and FloorWorks were the obvious choice to me. Their pricing was highly competitive, the information and quotes they provided was presented in a straightforward way, their communication via phone and email was friendly, prompt and helpful, and I swiftly homed in on them as my preferred contractor. I chose light oak herringbone, and the resultant flooring is absolutely beautiful. A team of three very polite gents laid the floor in a day and they left the site spotlessly clean, having more than met my expectations. Very highly recommended!

Do You Have a Question?

• Do you offer restoration of stairs and banisters?

  Sanding stairs and banisters is not an easy task and it requires high level skills and craftmanship. Most of the work involved is done manually and therefore it is very time consuming. We at FloorWorks would love to assist you with your stairs and banisters restoration as we have the required tools and the necessary skills and knowledge to bring their shine back. Stairs are usually exposed to higher levels of foot traffic, so hardwearing varnish is the recommended type of sealant.

• Oak stained in dark wood base and white grain effect

  Hi,

  This example is shown on oak timber. This type of finish is achieved by application of Active Stain on top of oak timber, flollowed by application of white hardwax-oil on top - buffed in and sealed with another clear coat of oil on top.

  Some active stains are available from Woca (Active stain 1, 2, 3 and 4) and white oils are available from Osmo, Fiddes, Treatex (and other brands). 

  The process of active stain is slow - takes about a day and oils are slow-drying. It may be worth looking for a pre-finished product with similar appearance, instead of starting from scratch on bare wood.

  Hope this helps.

• Can an engineered wood flooring with underfloor heating be restored?

  Hi Tom,

  Yes, any engineered wood flooring can be sanded with or without underfloor heating, as long as the thickness of the top layer of the product is at least 3 mm.

  Engineered flooring products are manufcatured in thickness of 14-15 mm, 18 mm and 20 mm. Each time the floor is sanded, a small portion of the top layer is removed, so if the top layer becomes too thin, further sanding could compromise the integrity of the floor and potentially expose the underlying material. If you can check the thickness of your plank, you will also know how many times the floors can be sanded. 

  If you're unsure, a professional can help assess the condition of the floor and recommend the best course of action.

And Some Frequently Asked Questions...

• How long does it take before the floors can be used again after the sanding service?

  During the restoration service, the floors can handle light traffic without disrupting the process.

  During the sealing process, the floors can be walked on between coats. After the final coat is applied, lacquered floors can accommodate foot traffic in 2 hours, while hardwax-oil floors require 5-10 hours. Drying times can vary depending on air humidity and the season.

  Furniture should be moved back into place the following day.

• Can we have door bars & scotia beading replaced with our floor restoration service?

  Yes, we offer and supply installation of matching the floor door bars and scotia beading.

• Do you do floor repairs to herringbone parquet flooring?

  Yes, we can supply matching blocks for most solid and engineered herringbone flooring. Usually after herringbone floor repairs, the floors may need to be sanded, gap filled and re-sealed to achieve a uniform appearance.
