Wood Floor Renovation Services

Finlay and Son have been renovating wood floors for nearly 40 years in Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and adjacent areas including, some years ago, North and West London.

At the end of November ’23 we decided the time was right to retire from sanding floors.

For a while now we have been working closely with Adam from HBC Floor Sanding. We are therefore pleased to recommend him for any work you may be considering. He covers most of the same locations that we did and all the same physical aspects of wood floor renovation too.

Please do get in touch – via the form below, or on the numbers and email address above and we will do our best to guide you to the best solution. Thank you.

Renovation of wooden floors

Over the last 40 years we have been renovating wooden floors for both commercial and residential customers.

Focusing mainly on domestic customers of recent times we have been privileged to carry out the transformation, repair and renovation of many different types of wooden floors including using environmentally friendly floor lacquers and hard wax oils. Repairs have been completed using new and reclaimed wood; gap filling between boards and the supply and fitting of thresholds, beading, scotia and custom made fireplace surrounds to name just a few of the activities we have undertaken.

Staining the floor to a different colour has always been a popular option, so if you need us to check back through our records, please do ask, we have got a fairly comprehensive record of colours and floor seals that have been used on each project.

We would like to thank all of our customers and assure you that any questions you may have will receive the same courteous and prompt reply, even if we can’t offer to help you with any new projects in the future.

Our Latest Work

A lovely oak wood strip floor we worked on recently in Cambridgeshire.

Once the floor had been sanded back to it’s natural colour, we used a Bona Intense Primer to give some depth back to the appearance and then sealed with the durable Bona Mega. A great combination of primer and top coat with a very satisfying result showing the classic characteristics of the oak flooring.

Very pleased with the work undertaken by Finlay & Son. From the initial query to the after-care discussion upon completion, the process was highly professional throughout. Completed on time and to an excellent standard, I would without hesitation seek their services for any future floor restoration work.

Finlay and Son carried out a really beautiful piece of craftsmanship on our wooden kitchen floor with its irregular missing section: repairing, sanding, and sealing the entire floor so that the join is invisible and the whole space looks far better and is much better protected against damage. Callum Finlay brought immense professional, specialised knowledge to the task and was also very helpful in working out how to combine that with our needs and access to the kitchen. Timelines were explained clearly in advance and everything happened on schedule. We would recommend Finlay and Son for anything to do with wooden floors, without reservation.

Callum restored our parquet flooring in our lounge and hallway and the transformation is amazing! Never could of imagined it looked so good. After finding the whole situation a mine field finlay and son put us at ease and got the job done with minimal disruption and once the work was done you’d never known you’d had the messy job done. Thank you so much!

Callum Finlay restored our wood block church auditorium floor to look like new. It had not been properly refurbished since it was laid in the 1960's and need much sanding before treatment. All the restoration work was carried out with great care and consideration in every detail. A very reliable company with good office back-up and a pleasure to have working for us. The after sales service has also proved to be excellent with advice on how to care for the floor in future. Thank you!

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Finlay and Son. We're thrilled with the work we've had done throughout our house on our wooden floors. The service from start to finish was superb, from the communications around the work to the work itself. Thank you very much.

We are delighted with the work Callum has provided on our floors - renovating existing floor and regenerating floorboards long hidden away. All of the steps were clearly explained and Callum made sure to inform us of any changes or developments as they arose. Callum’s work was punctual, professional and has transformed our home.
