What is Wooden Floor Sealing?

Wooden floor sealing involves applying a protective layer over the surface of your wood flooring. This seal acts as a shield against damage caused by daily use, moisture, and dirt. Depending on your preferences and the specific needs of your floor, we offer a range of sealants, including:

  • Lacquers: Provide a tough, glossy or matte finish ideal for high-traffic areas.
  • Oils: Penetrate the wood for a natural look while offering excellent protection.
  • Wax: Creates a warm, traditional finish, perfect for period properties.

Each sealant enhances the wood’s natural grain and colour, ensuring your floor looks stunning while staying protected.

Our Wooden Floor Sealing Process

1. Preparation

     
  • We will sand the floor to create a smooth, even surface, ensuring the seal adheres perfectly.

2. Choosing the Right Sealant

  • Based on your floor type, usage, and aesthetic preferences, we recommend the most suitable sealant to achieve the desired look and level of protection.

3. Application

  • Using professional techniques, we apply the sealant evenly across the floor, ensuring complete coverage and a flawless finish.
  • Multiple coats may be applied, with appropriate drying time between each layer, to achieve optimal durability.

4. Final Touches

  • Once the sealant has fully cured, your floor will be ready to withstand daily wear and tear while looking its absolute best.
