Floor sanding, gap filling of parquet flooring in Stanmore
Before the works...
The teak parquet flooring in this Stanmore house was overall looking tired and in urgent need of renovation. During our free survey, we did detailed inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all possible options.
Our client has decided to go for floor sanding, gap filling, of 42 sqm teak parquet flooring and finishing the floors in satin Lacquer.
How we made it happen...
One of the challenges we experienced while working on this project, was the amount of furniture, which we had to work around in stages.
Parquet flooring renovation requires years of experience, skills and the right floor sanding equipment. Depending on the overall condition of the floors, the initial parquet floor sanding may start with coarser or medium grid. The purpose of this stage is not only to remove the previous finish and get the floors to bare wood, but also to provide a perfect level throughout the entire floor. Some older parquet floors may require more thorough work at this stage.
Next stage in the process of floor refinishing was the application of the gap filling. We aim to apply the resin filler with saw dust in the second half of the working day, so it settles properly overnight and in case it is needed we can repeat it on the following morning , if required. The filler is after that removed by next stages of the floor sanding process in medium grids .
Sanding the floors with fine grids (80 - 120 gr) and a good rotary buff to the teak timber surface with high grid buffing screens is the most important stage in the preparation of the wooden flooring for finishing.
The parquet flooring was consequently sealed with 1 coat of primer and 2 coats of Junckers HT700 Lacquer in satin sheen with another light screen buff between the coats, for an excellent final touch to the finish.
