Wood repair, restoration and sanding

Wood is highly resistant to everyday wear and tear and very durable. And because timber is a natural material, it retains the heat well; better, in fact, than laminates or tiles, so it’s really comfortable underfoot, for example, particularly when it’s colder outside.

This flooring is also typically more hygienic than carpeting, especially if you or someone you live with has an allergy, while general maintenance and cleaning are pretty straightforward. What’s more, unpleasant odours don’t linger since these surfaces are easy to clean.

Aesthetically, wood always offers a timeless appeal that will never go out of style. So while these floors my not be cheap, they’re very much investment pieces, and ones well worth preserving.

At Royal Stone Care, we provide a wide range of services aimed at helping you to gain the most from your real wood floor, furniture, staircases and other timber products, and keep them looking their glorious best, whether you’re a business or just have some gorgeous timber at home, anywhere in the UK and London area.

Wood floor polishing services

Professional wood floor polishing services are the cost-effective way of taking care of your real hardwood floor. It preserves the floor sealant and extends the walking surface’s lifespan, maintaining and protecting the timber from wear and tear so the surface shrugs liquid stains. We’ll do a free site survey, and then remove superficial dust and dirt before sanding and sealing if necessary. Finally, we can apply the layers of fresh polish. The job is completed within a day, and you’ll be walking over your floor again in no time, with it looking its glorious best.

Wood floor sanding services

Wooden floor sanding erases the signs of wear and tear, reduces the possibility of splinters and makes surfaces sturdier and easier to clean, while also potentially adding value to your property. It’s a process that can remove years of unsightly wear and tear.

Worn boards and scratching are indications you may need a professional wood sanding service. Pour a few drops of water on to the section you think is damaged; if the liquid forms droplets, the varnish is still there. But if it soaks into the wood, it’s time to call in wood floor sanding services.

At Royal Stone Care, we’re a floor sanding specialist and employ highly trained and experienced craftsmen, plus high-quality equipment which minimises dust.

Wood floor sealing 

Floor sealing provides protection from damage, increases its longevity, and also wards off decaying and warping, while helping to prevent cracks from developing. You should always complete a thorough sanding before wood floor sealing.

This can be done with wood floor waxing, which seals the porous surface, protects it from staining and conceals dents and scratches. Wax can penetrate deep into the wood, offering a great level of protection. So we provide professional wood floor waxing services, and always recommend this is done every six months. Varnish, oil and polyurethane are alternative sealants.

Wood floor oiling

If your wood floor is losing the sheen and colour it used to have, wood floor oiling is one great solution to refresh and revive the surface. This process nourishes and protects, while also enhancing its overall appearance. In extreme cases, without oiling, the boards can dry out and crack. The protective coating means water and other moisture won’t sink in to your floor. And if you have pets, all you have to do to handle scratches is sand down the timber and oil again.

Finally, oiled wood flooring brings out the fine details and grains of each plank, so you get a wide range of colours and tones depending on which oil you use. Not only does it look very natural, but you can re-add it multiple times with no need to sand it. It doesn’t need a lot of time or planning – just call us and we’ll provide efficient, professional wood floor oiling services.

Wood floor staining services

Stains easily renovate wooden flooring and using one can change a room’s entire look and feel. You’ll change the colour of your wood while still highlighting the timber’s natural grain and bringing out the natural elegance of the material. A clear varnish staining also adds protection to your timber.

You may want a different colour of wood, or to emulate the hue of a more expensive timber. Modern stains come in a rainbow of colours, and your selection will depend on factors including wood type, light in the room and the overall design of the space.

However, if this process is not done properly, you can see some unwanted results. So call us now – and benefit from professional wood floor staining services.

Wood floor gap filling

Most wooden floors will need gap filling at some stage in their life. Over time, due to the effects of humidity, moisture and temperature changes, wooden floorboards will, to a greater or lesser degree, contract, expand and shrink. Mostly, this is not a problem.
