Expert Woodblock Repairs and Refinishing

Parquet floor restoration involves repairing wooden flooring blocks, sanding away worn surface finishes and applying fresh protection to the wood. It can bring back the definition of a pattern that has become dull through everyday use, or make a previously covered floor usable again.

Restoration is worth considering when scratches have spread or the protective coating has worn away in busy areas. The starting point is the floor’s condition, including how much timber remains after any previous sanding. A surface that looks tired may still have plenty of useful life left. We repair damaged areas where needed and prepare the timber before applying a suitable finish.

Choosing that finish means thinking about how you use the room, as well as the colour and sheen you prefer. Some deep marks may remain. An honest assessment helps you understand the likely result before work starts, including whether restoring the existing floor is a practical option.

Frequently Asked Questions About Restoring Parquet Floors

Telephone:
07925 223061

Herringbone Floor Sanding That Respects the Pattern

Herringbone’s changing grain direction needs careful sanding to avoid scratches that become obvious once the finish goes on. We assess uneven blocks and worn borders before deciding how to approach the surface.

Repairs affect the cost and schedule, while drying time affects room access. Our equipment minimises dust, and we’ll explain the likely result before you decide on the work.

From Loose Parquet Blocks to a Finished Floor

Found parquet beneath carpet, or noticed blocks shifting underfoot? Tell us which areas concern you. We’ll check whether the blocks are secure and assess any exposed adhesive before planning repairs.

Re-laying loose parquet blocks comes before sanding, so movement isn’t simply covered over. Once the finish is applied, we’ll explain when furniture can return and how to protect the surface.

Why Choose Us

Parquet Restoration With Clear Updates

Tames Flooring specialises in wooden floor restoration, with over 15 years’ experience behind the work. Our professional sanding equipment is designed to minimise dust and keep the working area tidier.

We’ll explain what’s involved before starting and keep you informed as the work progresses, especially if the floor reveals something unexpected.

The Detail Behind a Lasting Wood Finish

Our background began with bespoke wooden floors as Forest Floors, before becoming Tames Flooring in 2004 with a focus on restoration.

That knowledge informs how we approach existing timber. Careful preparation matters because a fresh coating can only look as good as the surface beneath it.

Parquet Refurbishment Around Your Routine

Having a room out of use can unsettle the whole household. We’ll talk through the practical arrangements in plain English and discuss how the work fits around access to your property.

A final walkthrough gives you space to raise questions and understand the care your finished parquet needs.

Bring Your Wooden Floor Back to Life

Planning to redecorate? Sorting your parquet first helps you organise the room’s finishing touches.

Picture a floor you’re proud to uncover, with experienced hands doing the work. Discuss what’s possible before deciding. Contact Tames Flooring to talk through your floor.

Client Advice

Understand the complete restoration cost

When comparing quotations, look carefully at the work included rather than comparing the final figures alone. One provider may include repairs, filling and several finishing coats while another quotation may cover a more limited process.

Ask for exclusions and possible additional charges to be clearly identified before deciding which service best meets your requirements.

Ask which finishing products will be used

Find out whether oil, lacquer or another finishing system is proposed for the restored parquet. Ask why the chosen product suits the timber, expected use of the room and appearance you want to achieve.

It is also useful to establish the number of coats, drying requirements and ongoing maintenance associated with that finish.

Ask about room conditions and ventilation

Find out whether the finishing products require particular ventilation, temperature or room conditions during application and curing. Ask how long people and pets should remain away from the treated area based on the products actually being used.

Following the provider's product-specific instructions will help you plan access to the room during restoration.

Discuss the expected finished appearance

Ask what changes you can reasonably expect after the parquet has been sanded and refinished. Sanding may reveal natural variations in individual wooden blocks that were less noticeable beneath an older finish.

Discuss colour, sheen and staining options beforehand, and consider asking whether a sample area or finish sample can be provided where appropriate.

Check how missing or damaged blocks will be treated

If the floor contains broken, heavily damaged or missing parquet blocks, ask what repair options are available. Discuss whether suitable replacement blocks can be sourced and how differences in timber, age or appearance might affect the finished result.

Any significant replacement work and associated costs should ideally be agreed before it is undertaken.

Request a detailed written quotation

Ask for a written quotation setting out the preparation, sanding, repairs and finishing included in the service. Check whether replacing loose blocks, filling gaps, staining and applying finishing coats are included or separately priced.

Detailed information makes it easier to compare providers on the actual restoration proposed rather than price alone.

Client Comment
Brentwood

Hadn't expected to get excited about a floor but here we are! It was so dull before that the pattern barely registered.

Now you can see all the different tones in the little pieces. We went fairly simple with the finish because there's already plenty going on in the room and I'm really glad we did. The furniture looks better against it as well.

Megan Hollis

The blocks beside the hearth had been moving for ages. Those were secured before the surface was finished.

It feels sound underfoot now, which matters more to me than the appearance, though that has improved considerably as well.

Stephen Parry

Client Comment
Brentwood

The loose blocks needed more attention than I'd realised. Ryan showed us which areas were affected and explained the repair work before we agreed to it.

That made sense to me. It's all firm now and the finished surface looks even right across the room.

Oliver Baines

Client Comment
Brentwood

An old mark remains near the hearth, as we were advised it might. I don't regard that as a fault in the work.

Elsewhere the improvement is substantial and the repaired blocks sit neatly within the pattern. Tames gave a realistic assessment and delivered a result consistent with it.

Philip Fenwick

A very pleasing job on our dining room. I particularly appreciate the care taken with the border, which had become rather neglected behind the furniture.

Maureen Beckett

Ryan was very patient while I worked out what finish I wanted. Seeing the parquet completed, I know we chose well.

Brenda Ashworth

Parquet Floor Sanding & Restoration

Client Comment
Brentwood

Was worried it would be too much pattern with everything else we've got. Actually it looks lovely, the softer finish makes such a difference.

Even my mismatched chairs seem to belong now.

Jessica Talbot

Parquet Floor Sanding & Restoration

Client Comment
Brentwood

We wanted to keep the pattern but lose that heavy, glossy look. The finish we chose has done exactly that.

It was useful to talk through how it would look in our room, rather than guessing. I'm especially pleased with the area by the window where the different tones show up.

Sophie Langham

Parquet Floor Sanding & Restoration

Client Comment
Brentwood

A neighbour suggested having the parquet looked at before we covered it again. I was doubtful because the middle of the room looked so worn, but the assessment was encouraging.

We decided to restore it and have been very happy with the result. There's still a mark near the wall which we knew might remain. Otherwise the improvement is remarkable, especially when you remember what it looked like with the old carpet just lifted.

Margaret Copley

Parquet Floor Sanding & Restoration

Client Comment
Brentwood

The old finish was so shiny in places and almost gone in others. It always looked grubby, even when I'd just cleaned it.

We've had the parquet restored with a softer finish and it's much more to my taste. The pattern shows up nicely without the glare. I've put a smaller rug back this time because I want to see more of it, although choosing that took me longer than choosing the floor finish.

Samantha Peake

Clear instructions about when we could put the furniture back, which helped us arrange the rest of the decorating. Glad we got the floor done first.

Adrian Firth

Client Comment

My daughter suggested getting an assessment before ordering carpet. I'm glad she did.

Most of the original floor could be kept and the repaired area is unobtrusive. It is very pleasant to have the wood on show again.

Marion Westlake

Parquet Floor Sanding & Restoration

Client Comment
Brentwood

Had been ignoring the loose patch for ages. It wasn't a big area, but you felt it every time you crossed the room.

That's been dealt with and the whole floor has had a refresh. Much nicer underfoot now. I wasn't especially bothered about changing its appearance, but the sanding has brought out the pattern more than I expected. Even the bit that normally sits under the table looks worth leaving uncovered.

James Cartwright

Client Comment
Brentwood

The blocks by the doorway had annoyed me for months. Kept meaning to do something, kept leaving it.

Finally had them secured as part of restoring the floor. Much better underfoot and the whole room looks decent again. Happy with what was done for the money.

Graham Sellars

Client Comment
Brentwood

Used them for a second room after being happy with the first. This one needed some repairs, which were explained before we agreed to proceed.

The result is consistent with the previous work. I'd use them again.
