Before the works...

The rustic solid oak parquet flooring in this Eltham home was recently laid by a floor fitter and the owner was looking for a company to professionally finish the floors in hardwax-oil. During our obligation-free survey, we did a thorough inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all possible options.

Our client has decided to go for floor sanding and gap filling of the oak parquet flooring and finishing the floors in matt hardwax-oil.

How we completed the floor works...

Our works included wood floor restoration of approx. 28 sqm parquet flooring and finishing in 2 coats matt hardwax-oil. The sealing went down with 2 coats of Osmo Polyx hardwax-oil.

We also carried out gap filling as part of the wood floor sanding process. We aim to apply resin filler in the end of the working day, so it settles properly overnight and in case it is needed we can repeat it on the following morning , if required. The filler is after that removed by next step of the finishing process with medium grids .

Overall this parquet flooring renovation project was completed as scheduled and to the satisfaction of the client.
