Professional Parquet Floor Refinishing 

Parquet floor sanding is not exactly easy. It takes skill and experience to perform it properly. Why? Well, the intricate design of parquet patterns is certainly interesting and unique but complicates the refinishing process. Since the parquet blocks face different directions, the resurfacing process is often rather difficult. It way too easy to strip too much wood from certain blocks while leaving others almost untouched. You need practice and knowledge to execute this properly. Thankfully, Advantage Hardwood is right there to help you out.

How Can We Assist You?

As already stated, the nature of the sanding process for parquet installations is a bit more complicated. However, we can do more than just sand. A complete parquet restoration is much more involving. It includes repair and replacement of old blocks, multiple rounds of sanding with different equipment and sandpaper grits, gap-filling any empty spaces between the blocks, staining with a colour of choice and finishing to provide sufficient level of protection to the surface.

 

First, we can take care of any old or missing tiles and replace them with matching new ones. In addition, our professional equipment will reduce the dust to a minimum which will make it much easier to clean after everything is completed.

 

Second, we always recommend to accompany the sanding with a gap-filling procedure because they work so well together. Any filler left on the floor will be completely removed with the final polishing round.

Third, depending on your taste, we can provide excellent parquet staining services and find just the right color for your flooring. Colour matching requires a lot of time and experience to pick up. Amateur attempts quite often lead to disasters.

​

Fourth, we can provide you with expert advice on what kind of finish will be most suitable for your parquetry. If you need help, we are always happy to assist.  With the right kind of treatment, it will be completely transformed and we are the people for the job!
