Wood Floor Polishing Method

Thorough Inspection and Assessment

Before any work begins, we conduct a comprehensive assessment of your floor. This includes identifying scratches, dents, water damage, stains, or uneven wear. By understanding the condition of your flooring, we can recommend the most suitable polishing technique and products for optimal results.

Deep Cleaning
We begin by removing all dirt, dust, and grime from the floor surface. This step is crucial to ensure that the polish adheres evenly and prevents imperfections. Using professional-grade cleaning solutions and equipment, we eliminate contaminants that could affect the finish.

Sanding (If Required)
For floors with deep scratches or uneven surfaces, we use professional sanding machines to smooth out imperfections. Sanding also prepares the wood for optimal oil or polish absorption, enhancing the finish. Different sandpaper grades are used depending on the wood type and condition.

Application of High-Quality Oils and Polishes
Once the floor is clean and smooth, we apply premium wood floor products such as Bona and Osmo oils and polishes. These products protect the wood while enhancing its natural grain and colour. The application process includes:
• First Coat: Penetrates deeply into the wood for nourishment and protection.
• Buffing: Ensures a smooth, even surface, removing excess product.
• Second Coat: Enhances durability and adds a glossy or matte finish based on preference.

Final Buffing and Inspection
The final step involves a thorough buffing process to achieve a smooth, gleaming finish. Every inch of the floor is inspected to ensure perfect consistency and premium quality.

Polishing Techniques for Different Wooden Floor Types

Solid Hardwood Floors

Solid hardwood is known for its durability and elegance. We use penetrative oils and polishes that enhance the natural grain while providing long-lasting protection. Polishing solid hardwood also involves light sanding for older floors to remove scratches and imperfections.

Engineered Wood Floors

Engineered wood floors feature a thin veneer of real wood over a plywood base. We carefully use low-abrasion sanding techniques to avoid damaging the veneer and apply oils and polishes designed for engineered wood. This ensures the floor remains durable and aesthetically appealing.

Parquet Flooring

Parquet floors require precision due to their patterned layout. Our team uses gentle sanding and micro-abrasion techniques to maintain the geometric patterns, followed by the application of premium oils that enhance colour and texture without compromising the intricate design.

Bamboo Floors

Bamboo is a sustainable and resilient option that requires specialised care. We use eco-friendly oils that penetrate the bamboo fibers, enhancing shine and protecting against moisture and scratches.

Exotic Hardwood Floors

For exotic woods like teak, mahogany, or merbau, we apply tailored polishing solutions that preserve the unique colour and grain characteristics. These woods often need longer drying times and specialised buffing techniques for a perfect finish.
