What Is Parquet Floor Restoration?

Bring Back the Original Elegance of Your Floor

Parquet restoration is the careful sanding, repair and refinishing of your geometric wood‑block floor. It removes worn finishes, levels uneven blocks, replaces rotten pieces and seals the surface for a beautiful, durable result.

Time to Restore?

Restore Your Parquet Floors the Right Way

Problems before restoration:

  • Uneven or badly‑filled gaps
  • Scratched, dull or failing old finishes
  • Loose or damaged blocks

Benefits of professional restoration:

  • Restores the original pattern and colour
  • Eliminates dips, rough spots and cross‑grain marks
  • Seals and protects with high‑grade lacquers or oils
  • Increases light reflection and adds property value

Restoring Function & Beauty

What’s Involved in Restoring Your Parquet Floor

    Cork Strip Replacement

    Cork strips were traditionally used in parquet flooring to form borders and manage expansion gaps. We carefully restore or replace these elements to maintain the floor’s original style and purpose.

    Our expert work ensures visual authenticity while allowing the natural movement of the wood, preserving both function and character.

    Parquet Gap Filling

    Gap filling is a crucial part of parquet floor restoration. We blend fine sanding dust with clear resin and trowel it across the surface for a smooth, uniform finish.

    Gaps often form as wood naturally expands and contracts over time, particularly in older floors that weren’t properly seasoned before installation.

  • Parquet floor during refinishing process with only half the floor completed.

    Sealing & Finishing Your Parquet Floor

    We use a commercial-grade lacquer to give your parquet floor a tough, long-lasting finish. After applying a coloured primer if desired, we add two or three coats in your chosen sheen—extra matt, matt, satin, or gloss.

    The result is a beautifully finished surface that’s durable, easy to maintain, and built to last.
