Commercial Floor Restoration by Ryans Restoration

At Ryans Restoration, we specialise in commercial floor restoration services that revitalise and protect the floors in your business or commercial space. Floors in commercial environments are subjected to heavy foot traffic, spills, scuffs, and other forms of wear and tear, which can cause them to lose their aesthetic appeal and structural integrity over time. Whether you have hardwood, engineered wood, parquet, or other types of wood floors, our commercial floor restoration service ensures that your floors are restored to their original beauty while maintaining durability and functionality.

Why Commercial Floor Restoration is Necessary

Commercial floors endure much more stress than residential floors due to the high level of foot traffic, the movement of furniture and equipment, and the impact of everyday business activities. Over time, even the most durable floors can become worn, scratched, or damaged. When this happens, the floors lose their lustre and can become a safety hazard, with uneven surfaces or splintering that can pose risks to employees and customers.

Floor restoration is a critical service for businesses looking to maintain a professional appearance and a safe environment. When your floors look worn or damaged, it can affect the perception of your business, creating an impression of neglect. A well-maintained floor, on the other hand, enhances the aesthetics of your space, making it look clean, polished, and inviting. This is particularly important in high-visibility areas such as lobbies, offices, restaurants, and retail spaces, where first impressions matter.

Beyond aesthetics, floor restoration helps preserve the structural integrity of the wood. Ignoring floor damage can lead to more extensive problems, such as warping, splitting, or deep scratches that could eventually require full floor replacement. Restoring your floors before the damage worsens is a cost-effective way to extend their lifespan, saving you money in the long run.

The Benefits of Commercial Floor Restoration

Commercial floor restoration offers numerous benefits that go beyond simply improving the appearance of your space. First and foremost, restoration restores the floor’s natural beauty, bringing back the shine and richness of the wood. Whether your floors are hardwood, engineered wood, or parquet, restoration can bring them back to life, making them look as good as new.

One of the main benefits of floor restoration is its ability to remove surface-level imperfections such as scratches, scuffs, and dents. These types of damage are common in commercial spaces, particularly in high-traffic areas like entryways, corridors, and communal spaces. Through a combination of sanding, buffing, and refinishing, restoration removes these imperfections and creates a smooth, even surface.

Restoration also helps to protect your floors from future damage. After sanding and repairing the floors, we apply a protective finish, such as polyurethane, that acts as a barrier against moisture, spills, dirt, and everyday wear. This finish not only enhances the appearance of the floors but also increases their durability, ensuring that they can withstand the rigours of a busy commercial environment. In addition, regular restoration and maintenance can prevent deeper damage, such as water infiltration or structural weakening, from taking hold.

Another key benefit of floor restoration is that it improves safety. Worn or damaged floors can become slippery, uneven, or hazardous. In commercial spaces, where employees and customers walk throughout the day, maintaining safe flooring is essential to preventing accidents. Restoring the floors creates a level, smooth surface that eliminates trip hazards and reduces the risk of injuries. This is particularly important in businesses where health and safety standards must be met, such as in hospitals, schools, or care facilities.

Our Commercial Floor Restoration Process

At Ryans Restoration, we follow a detailed and thorough process to ensure that your commercial floors are restored to their optimal condition. Our process begins with a comprehensive assessment of your floors to determine the extent of the damage and the best course of action for restoration. During this assessment, we inspect the surface for scratches, stains, wear patterns, and any structural damage. We also evaluate the type of wood and any existing finishes to create a customised plan tailored to your specific needs.

Once the assessment is complete, we prepare the area for restoration. This may involve coordinating with your business to minimise disruption to your operations. In many cases, we can schedule the work during off-hours, weekends, or holidays to ensure that the restoration process does not interfere with your business. Our team uses dust-free sanding and cleaning equipment to keep the workspace clean and safe throughout the project.

The restoration process itself begins with sanding. Sanding removes the top layer of the wood, eliminating any surface-level damage such as scratches, scuffs, and stains. For deeper imperfections, we use coarser sandpaper to remove the damage before moving on to finer grades of sandpaper for a smooth, polished surface. Sanding also prepares the floor for the application of a new finish, ensuring that the wood is properly sealed and protected.

After sanding, we clean the floor thoroughly to remove any dust or debris. At this point, we repair any damage, such as filling gaps between floorboards or fixing loose or broken boards. Once the repairs are complete, we apply a new finish to the floor. The type of finish used will depend on your specific requirements. We offer a variety of finishes, including oil-based and water-based polyurethane, natural oils, and wax. Each finish provides a different level of sheen and durability, and we work with you to choose the best option for your space.

The final step in our restoration process is to buff the floors. Buffing brings out the natural shine of the wood and creates a smooth, even surface. Once the finish has dried and cured, your floors will be ready to handle the demands of daily business activity, with a renewed, polished appearance that enhances the overall atmosphere of your space.

Customised Solutions for Commercial Spaces

Every commercial space is different, and at Ryans Restoration, we offer customised floor restoration solutions that are tailored to the unique needs of your business. Whether you have traditional hardwood floors, engineered wood, parquet, or a combination of different materials, we have the expertise to handle any type of floor restoration project.

We also understand the importance of working within your business schedule. We offer flexible service options, including off-hours work, to minimise disruption to your daily operations. Our team works efficiently and professionally to ensure that your floors are restored quickly and with minimal downtime.

In addition, we provide a range of finishes to meet the specific requirements of your space. For high-traffic areas, we recommend more durable finishes like polyurethane, which offers excellent protection against wear and spills. For areas where aesthetics are the priority, we can use natural oils or wax finishes to bring out the beauty of the wood while providing a softer, more matte look.

Maintaining Your Restored Floors

Once your commercial floors have been restored, regular maintenance is essential to keep them looking their best. We recommend sweeping or vacuuming your floors daily to remove dirt, dust, and debris, which can scratch the surface over time. For deeper cleaning, use a damp mop with a wood-safe cleaner, but avoid using excessive water, as moisture can damage the wood.

In high-traffic areas, consider using rugs or runners to protect the floors from excessive wear. It’s also a good idea to place protective pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches or dents. Depending on the level of foot traffic and the type of finish applied, we recommend scheduling routine floor maintenance, such as buffing or refinishing, every few years to ensure the floors remain in optimal condition.

FAQ: Commercial Floor Restoration

What is commercial floor restoration?

Commercial floor restoration is the process of repairing and rejuvenating the appearance and functionality of your wood floors. This involves sanding away surface imperfections like scratches and stains, repairing any structural damage, and applying a protective finish to restore the wood’s natural beauty and durability.

Why should I restore my commercial floors?

Restoring your commercial floors improves both the appearance and safety of your business space. Worn or damaged floors can look unattractive and create a poor impression on clients or customers. In addition, uneven or damaged floors can pose a safety hazard. Restoring your floors helps extend their lifespan, making them look polished and professional, and ensuring a safer environment.

How often should I have my commercial floors restored?

The frequency of restoration depends on the amount of foot traffic and the condition of your floors. Typically, commercial floors should be restored every 5 to 10 years. In high-traffic areas, such as entryways or lobbies, you may need restoration more frequently to maintain the floors’ appearance and functionality.

What types of commercial floors can be restored?

Most types of wood floors in commercial settings can be restored, including solid hardwood, engineered wood, parquet, and more. Our team at Ryans Restoration assesses the condition and type of wood before beginning the restoration process to ensure the best results.

Can floor restoration be done without disrupting my business operations?

Yes, we offer flexible scheduling to minimise disruption to your business. We can carry out floor restoration during off-hours, weekends, or holidays to accommodate your needs. Our goal is to restore your floors as efficiently as possible while ensuring minimal impact on your daily operations.

How long does the commercial floor restoration process take?

The duration of the restoration process depends on the size of the space and the condition of the floors. Typically, the process takes between 1 to 3 days for most commercial projects. After restoration, it’s recommended to wait at least 24 to 48 hours before using the space to allow the finish to dry completely.

Do I need to replace damaged boards during restoration?

In cases where certain boards are too damaged to be repaired, we may recommend replacing those specific boards. Our restoration process includes assessing the condition of each board, and we aim to preserve as much of the original flooring as possible while ensuring a durable and seamless result.

What finishes are available for commercial floors after restoration?

We offer a variety of finishes, including water-based and oil-based polyurethane, natural oils, and wax finishes. Each finish has its own benefits in terms of durability, sheen, and maintenance. We can recommend the best finish based on the level of foot traffic and the aesthetic you want to achieve.

How does floor restoration improve safety?

Restoring commercial floors eliminates uneven surfaces, splinters, or damaged boards that can create trip hazards. By sanding and refinishing the floors, we create a smooth, level surface that is safe for employees and visitors. The new finish also protects the wood from moisture and wear, preventing future damage that could become a safety concern.

Will floor restoration increase the durability of my floors?

Yes, floor restoration increases the durability of your wood floors by removing damaged layers and applying a protective finish. The new finish acts as a barrier against moisture, dirt, and wear, ensuring that your floors can handle the daily demands of a commercial space while maintaining their appearance and strength.

Can engineered wood floors be restored?

Yes, engineered wood floors can be restored as long as they have a thick enough top veneer. During our initial assessment, we determine whether your engineered wood floors are suitable for restoration and recommend the best course of action based on their condition.

How much does commercial floor restoration cost?

The cost of floor restoration depends on the size of the area, the extent of the damage, and the type of finish used. We provide a detailed estimate after assessing your floors during our consultation, ensuring transparency and competitive pricing.

Will there be dust and mess during the restoration process?

We use modern, dust-free sanding equipment to minimise dust and mess during the restoration process. While some dust is inevitable, we take every precaution to keep your space clean and protect the surrounding areas. Our team ensures that the workspace is tidy throughout the project.

What maintenance is required after floor restoration?

After your floors are restored, regular cleaning is essential to maintain their appearance. Sweep or vacuum daily to remove dirt and debris, and use a damp mop with a wood-safe cleaner for deeper cleaning. In high-traffic areas, use rugs or runners to protect the floor, and avoid dragging furniture across the surface to prevent scratches.

We booked Ryans services for a few days after our house move. Booking was easy and courteous and the floor sanders, two brothers from a family business arrived on time and did the most perfect job. I can't rate their services highly enough and have recommended them to several of my friends.They were pleased to get a vintage elm floor to sand as well as a filthy old pine floor. The results are remarkable and they did it all in a few days with no dust. We are so pleased with their service and would use them again without hesitation.

Bryanna was my first point of contact and patiently dealt with me through 3 subsequent lots of calls and emails. Great customer service.Sam did the actual work on my floor and I can only say I am astonished at the results.He was knowledgable, thoughtful, worked diligently, left the house spotlessly clean each evening, and went the extra mile to cleverly fill gaps and remove the brass air-flow plates for cleaning.I am more than delighted with the results!!!!! Amazing. Thank you so much Sam, you've done a great job.

We live in South Devon. I did a lot of research before deciding to use Ryans Restoration to restore our large 76 square metre of engineered oak flooring on the lower area of our home. My wife and I decided we wanted the flooring restored using Bona products. initially I obtained a quote from a certified Bona contractor in Devon but frankly their quote was rediculous. I then went on to Bona website itself and looked for certified Bona contractors in Somerset and also Wiltshire. The quotes I received were much more sensible and Ryan's Restoration gave me an additional discount due to the size of the area. And now the mist important points. It is a family business and there are about 12 people in the business, and almost all of whom are family - fathers and sons, uncles and nephews. It is clear they all work wonderfully well as a team. In our case it was a domestic restoration that was needed but they also do sports halls and leisure centres. The quality of their work is truly exceptional and our floor looks brilliant and as if it was new following sanding down, then a coat of a Bona primer plus 2 top coats of another Bona product. We will certainly be having them back to also restore our engineered oak flooring on our too floor but probably in January 2026 just after we have had our home fully redecorated internally.I can highly recommend Ryan's Restoration and if you use them, I am 100% confident you will be recommending them to others too.Derek Langton

I had two 60 year old oak parquet floors in front room and hallway restored by Ryans. The job was done quickly with no concerns about dust at all and both floors look amazing, such a transformation. I would certainly recommend Ryans both in terms of workmanship and Bryannna who looks after all the bookings is very professional and a pleasure to deal with.I am very pleased.

I’m a firm believer that when you buy a home you need to be able to make it feel like youAs fast as possible! The kitchen oak parquet floor was the final piece of the jigsaw. Ryan’s did a phenomenal job of bringing life back into the space which had become a little tired and dull. Now the kitchen feels warm and inviting. I would not hesitate in recommending them.

James initially came out for a free consultation and then Sam came to restore our floorboards in the bedrooms upstairs. We literally don't know how Sam has done it, it's like some sort of sorcery! The floorboards were uneven, creaky, broken, cracked - you name it. They're now perfectly flat and smooth and have come out in a glorious colour - so much better than we had expected. Bryanna was incredibly responsive in getting everything organised and we're so pleased with the final result. Happy customers all round!

Having discovered that we had an old parquet flooring beneath a carpet in our hallway we asked James and his team to restore it. The job was not straight forward due to the fact that the floor sloped in places and there was the added problem of heating pipes running beneath it.We are very pleased with the quality and craftmanship of the work and the clean and professional manner in which it was carried out. The staff are very pleasant and attentive.I would recommend Ryans to any of my friends or family.

I moved to my new property and the prospect of dealing with an old and damaged wood floor felt overwhelming. I found Ryans on a google search and after seeing all the positive coments I decided to ask for a quote. I was so impressed by their quick and informative response that I decided to hire their services. I now have a stunning new floor that I can be proud of thanks to the incredibly professional and reliable team that I met during the few days it took to finish the job. I would definitely recomend Ryans to anyone considering renovating/restoring their floors

Ryan's Restoration sanded, polished and treated three floors of old engineered oak in our home. The results were good and better than expectations. After a couple of months the floors are standing up well to wear and tear. The two people attending the property were polite and considerate, and completed the job on time. Our only "complaint" was that we had to remind the company to send us a bill.

Well, what can I say other than use Ryan's because they are amazing! They took on my solid oak floor refurbishment in four ground floor rooms when no-one else would and completely transformed it - it looks like a brand new floor! Very little mess despite the sanding as the machine sucks up 95% of the dust. Always left the site clean and tidy. Very professional, polite and friendly. They also laid a brand new solid oak in my large sitting room to match the existing refurbished floor and did a magnificent job. Cost also very competitive. I am over the moon with my wooden floors now. Great admin support from Bryanna too - always very helpful and polite.

Absolutely amazing service. All of the men working for Ryan’s were polite, professional and courteous (one even spotted me coming down the street with my shopping and insisted on carrying it for me!). The floors they re-sanded look absolutely incredible and the communication during the job was really really good. Despite my wonky old house throwing up some issues, everything was tackled brilliantly and they let me know exactly what they were doing at each point. I think the price for the transformation of the house was an absolute bargain and am delighted. Fantastic!

We contacted Ryan's Restoration as we had a little accident on the wooden flooring that needed repairing urgently as we were guests at the place where we were staying at. We spoke with James who understood the urgency of the matter and came within a few hours (fitting us within jobs, THANK YOU James!), repaired the wood and gave me advice on how to look after it in the following hours, kindly giving me some of the product to apply it myself on the floor.I would highly recommend their professionalism, kindness and friendliness :)
