Why it works

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.

We work while you’re closed

Delivered out of hours, as standard.

Most contractors expect your business to work around them. We work around you. Here’s what a typical overnight programme looks like — from the moment you lock up to the moment you open on restored floors.

  1. 17:30

    Your business closes

    Staff and customers head home. Your premises are handed over under agreed access protocols.

  2. 18:00

    Zest arrives

    Our technicians arrive on site with everything needed — no deliveries, no daytime setup.

  3. Overnight

    Professional restoration

    The full restoration is completed while the building is empty. No noise complaints, no closed-off areas.

  4. 05:30

    Final inspection

    Every area is checked, dried and signed off against the agreed specification.

  5. 08:00

    You open on restored floors

    Doors open on time, to a floor that looks new. Your team simply arrives to the result.

Access, security and keyholding protocols are agreed before any work begins. Weekend and closure-period programmes are available where an overnight window isn’t enough.

How it works

Four steps. Zero disruption.

From first phone call to sign-off, the process is designed around your operating hours — not ours.

  1. 01

    Site Survey

    We visit at a time that suits you, assess the floor, and specify the right restoration system — with a fixed, itemised quotation.

  2. 02

    Out-of-Hours Schedule

    Work is programmed around your operation — nights, weekends or closure periods — with access and security protocols agreed in advance.

  3. 03

    Restore Overnight

    Our technicians complete the work while your premises are empty, leaving every area clean, dry and ready for use.

  4. 04

    Sign-Off & Aftercare

    You open as normal to a transformed floor, with documented results and a maintenance plan to protect the finish.

Questions, answered

What facilities teams ask us.

If your question isn’t covered, the survey 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 survey 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.
