Our client was at her wits’ end. Her beautiful oak floor had been ravaged by careless builders: water stains, scratches and scuffing. We won the contract to rescue a floor that other floor fitters dare not tackle.
First of all, the boards on the ground floor had to be sanded down until all the damage had disappeared. The client wanted to keep the textured floor she originally had, to emphasize the wood grain – but here’s the problem: wire-brushed flooring is normally done by the timber suppliers supplying a factory finish, pre-finished board.
