Before the works...
The walnut solid wood flooring in this Wembley Property was looking tired and in urgent need of renovation. During our initial 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 repairs, floor sanding, gap filling, staining, of walnut solid wood flooring and finishing the floors in matt Lacquer.
How we completed the floor works...
After our floor sanding experts have checked all property & service details on site, they started with lifting existing and its preparation for disposal to our waste facility.
Our works included wood floor restoration of approx. 26 sqm solid wood flooring and finishing in 3 coats matt Lacquer. The sealing went down with 1 coat of primer and 3 coats of Lacquer.
Our floor restoration service begins with detailed inspection of the floors and any repairs to the will be completed in this initial stage. In this project approx. we have repaired approx. of .
We also carried out gap filling as part of the floor restoration process. We aim to apply the resin filler with saw dust in the second half of the working day, so it settles properly overnight and 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 .
A number of colour samples were provided on a sanded surface for the client to review and approve, prior to application of the colour and finishing the floors. The client decided to go with floor staining in colour.
Overall the project was completed as originally planned and to the delight of the client.
Did you know this about walnut flooring?
Walnut wood is a premium hardwood timber known for its rich, dark brown color with purplish or gray undertones. It has a straight grain, though it can sometimes feature attractive wave patterns, adding to its aesthetic appeal. Walnut is valued for its smooth texture and excellent workability, making it a popular choice for high-end furniture, cabinetry and wooden flooring. It is durable and resistant to warping, with a natural luster that enhances its luxurious look. To preserve its natural dark brown colour after restoration with lacquered finish, walnut requires use of a specific primer to be applied, after the floor sanding and sealing.
