Handover planned around your operation
What it is designed to achieve
Wood floors fail slowly, then suddenly.
A commercial timber floor loses its finish long before it looks like it has: once the lacquer wears through, traffic starts abrading bare wood and the repair bill changes scale. Reviving the finish at the right time keeps the floor serviceable for decades.
Finish-first restoration
Deep cleaning and refinishing systems that renew protection without full re-sanding where possible.
Commercial-grade lacquers
Hard-wearing finishes matched to the use — sports halls, bars, retail, heritage interiors.
No week of closure
Phased overnight and weekend programmes keep the space in use while the floor is renewed.
Maintenance that prevents sanding
A planned recoat cycle avoids the disruption and dust of periodic full restorations.
When to consider this service
Signs the floor needs a closer assessment.
- The finish is dull, marked or difficult to maintain
- Traffic wear is visible in halls or circulation routes
- The timber is sound but the surface needs renewal
Floors and environments covered
Commercial timber floors in halls, offices, hospitality venues and heritage interiors, subject to finish and condition.
Operational and curing considerations
Timing depends on floor condition, preparation, area size, drying or curing requirements and the access available. These are confirmed in the written proposal before work is agreed.

Questions, answered
What facilities teams ask us.
If your question isn’t covered, the assessment is the fastest way to a straight answer — free and without obligation.
Does the floor need full sanding, or just recoating?
If the existing finish is intact but worn, a deep clean and recoat renews protection at far lower cost and disruption. Once wear has reached bare wood, sanding becomes necessary — the assessment tells us which side of that line you’re on.
Can you work around sports and event schedules?
Yes — halls and venues are exactly why we work out of hours. Programmes are built around fixtures, terms and bookings, including holiday-period full restorations.
What about line markings in sports halls?
Court lines are re-applied as part of a refinishing programme, to your governing-body specifications where required.
How soon can the floor take traffic after refinishing?
Modern commercial lacquers take light traffic quickly, but full hardness takes longer — the programme is phased so no area takes traffic before it’s ready.
