Floor Sanding in Crouch End

This engineered wood board job came in from Crouch End. The client wanted a lacquer finish -- which forms a hard protective layer on top of the wood and handles heavy foot traffic well. The floor had been down for a long time and had a few repairs to do first, but the wood underneath was solid and took the finish well.

Our approach to engineered in Highgate

Highgate is mostly Victorian terraces, Edwardian conversion flats, and some inter-war semis. Original engineered wood boards in these homes tends to be good quality material -- often better than anything you would buy new today. A proper sand takes it right back to clean timber and lets you choose the finish you want. We advise on that during the survey based on how the room is used.

For engineered, prep is the main thing. We fill gaps, secure loose sections, and make sure the surface is stable before we start sanding. Skip that stage and the finish will not last. We do not skip it.
