Original solid wood floor uncovered, repaired and professionally sanded back to life.
When visiting the property to measure for a new wood floor installation, we discovered an original solid wood herringbone floor hidden beneath the existing carpet. The homeowners were unaware it was there and assumed replacement was the only option.
Despite years of wear and visible damage, the floor had excellent potential. Rather than installing new boards, we restored the existing timber, preserving the character of the home while significantly reducing costs.
After careful repairs, sanding and refinishing, the original herringbone pattern was revealed and transformed into a rich, durable feature that now defines both the hallway and lounge.
To preserve the character of the home by restoring the original solid wood floor rather than replacing it.
Careful repair work, professional sanding and three coats of lacquer were applied to protect and enhance the natural wood grain.
A beautifully restored herringbone floor that looks brand new while retaining its original charm, saving the client money and adding long-term value to the property.
