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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
