Restoration and Sanding of Existing Floorboards
Gone with the old carpet and in with a beautiful, natural wood floor. Flooring Matters can help you with wooden floor restoration in Devon.

Sand an Engineered Wood Floor
If you’ve got an engineered wood floor that was laid a few years ago, it may well be ready to be rejuvenated. Life happens, and you can be forgiven for having a few scratches on your lovely wooden floor. Engineered wood is designed to be hard wearing and long lasting and may take several sands in its lifetime, the number of times engineered floors can be refinished depends on the thickness of the Veneer. If it is less than 2 millimeters thick it can tolerate a light scuff-sanding with a buffer. Thicker top layers can be sanded just like solid wood, allowing deeper scratches and dents to be removed.
With our virtually dust free sanders we can bring your engineered wood back to its former glory!

- For hard working commercial areas we recommend using a commercial grade lacquer to finish the job.
Maintenance of Wood Flooring
We offer a personalised maintenance routine to ensure your new look floor looks great for years to come.
We advise our customers to always use gentle cleaning products. Using harsh chemicals such as bleach floor cleaners could damage the protective lacquer. Wood is a natural product and should be treated with care – if you move or drag heavy objects across your wooden floor it will mark. We suggest that you add rugs or floor runners to areas that receive heavy wear such as kitchens or hallways.
