On this floor restoration project the floor was sanded to a very fine grit to make it smooth and 4 coats of high traffic lacquer were applied.
The Project manager contacted us regarding this parquet floor installation project at University of Hull. Because the floor was previously flooded, we had to remove existing blocks and leave the subfloor to dry for a period of time. Once dried screed was put down. After the screed we laid a new solid oak parquet floor. When the floor was fully laid, we have sanded and oiled with red brown oil to match other parquet floors in the building. To finish the floor and give it strength we have applied 4 coats of high traffic lacquer. As always to fit in with the customers requirement this project was done during holiday time to reduce disruption.
Project manager contacted us regarding this cherry parquet floor restoration project in Wakefield. We have been to do a survey and we have acknowledged that the floor was a solid cherry, basket wave pattern parquet floor. From discussions with project manager it became apparent this floor was never restored. The floor was in bad condition with a lot of scratches on.
This maple dance floor restoration project, The Black Horse Pub in Skipton has been a bit different from the other projects. Customer wanted the floor stained in a mahogany colour, with maple wood being a hard wood is hard to achieve a even colour when apply the stain so we had to find best solution to achieve this.
When we have been to do the survey for this wood floor restoration project, the floor of this Grade II-listed engine house looked in need of urgent attention. After talking with the project manager has become apparent this is a very busy place during service hours. Therefore we have recommended a high traffic seal to be applied due to the footfall of the place.
When we have been to survey for this job we have seen that there was a section of the floor that needed laying. To be able to achieve this school floor restoration we have tried to match the existing blocks but it was impossible due to the size of the existing ones.
The University of Hull is a public research university in Kingston upon Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It was founded in 1927 as University College Hull. For this job we had to use flooring equipment with the existing one so with the management we decided to use oak parquet block stained with a mahogany stain.
For this project we had a total of 160 sqm of prime oak parquet block to install over several days to suit the universities opening hours. In this project we also had to do a curved disabled ramp and several steps.
