Before the works...
The oak engineered wood flooring in this Wandsworth health & fitness centre was looking tired and in serious need of restoration. During our initial survey, we did detailed inspection of the floors & discussed with the client all possible options, followed by detailed quote with our floor sanding & repairs pricing.
Our client has decided to go for floor sanding and staining of 166 sqm oak engineered wood flooring and finishing the floors in matt Lacquer.
How we completed this oak engineered wood flooring renovation...
One of the challenges we faced during this project was to complete the floor works in stages, due to larger pieces of furniture, which could not be moved out.
Engineered wood flooring comes with different thickness of the top layer. During the initial survey, we have identified the remaining thickness however, our team will make sure again, there is sufficient thickness before starting the floor sanding works.
During the oak engineered floor renovation, the entire timber surface is going through a sanding process of levelling with coarser grids, finishing with finer grids, and finally buffing, prior to the application of the sealant & between the coats, for outstanding results.
Our works included approx. 166 sqm oak engineered wood flooring floor restoration and finishing in matt lacquer. The sealing went down with 1 coat of primer and 2 coats of Bona Mega lacquer.
Our team prepared few samples on the unfinished sanded timber surface for the client to approve prior to application of the finish. The client chose to go for staining their engineered wood flooring in beautiful colour to compliment their interior.
Overall, this floor renovation project in Wandsworth was completed as scheduled and to the delight of the client.
