Sanding limits & checks

  • Veneer depth inspection

    Checking the thickness of the engineered wood wear layer to confirm sanding suitability without breaching the ply core.

  • Gentle flat sanding

    Using fine-grit progressive belt sands and rotary trio buffing to preserve veneer thickness.

  • Localised repairs

    Fixing surface scratches and shallow dents carefully without aggressive timber removal.

Finishing & protection

  • Specialist lacquers

    Applying finishes designed to flex with engineered boards and resist household liquid spills.

  • Seam moisture sealing

    Ensuring top coat sealants fully protect micro-bevel joints from water penetration.

  • Inter-coat buffing

    Lightly abrading between coating layers to achieve a smooth, premium surface sheen.

  4. Step 4

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Can engineered floors be sanded?

It depends on the wear layer thickness. We assess this before recommending sanding.

How many times can engineered boards be sanded?

Often one to two times, depending on the wear layer and previous refinishing.

How long does engineered wood restoration take?

Most engineered wood restoration projects take 1-2 days, depending on room size, floor condition, and the chosen finish.

Is engineered wood restoration dusty?

Modern sanding machines use advanced dust extraction systems, keeping dust levels very low and suitable for residential properties.

Is it cheaper to restore engineered wood than replace it?

Yes. Restoration is usually far more cost-effective than replacing engineered wood flooring, especially in large areas.

What finishes do you use afterward?

We apply hardwax oils or lacquers based on durability and the desired sheen.
