Every floor is individual Wood type & quality, age, wear-and-tear, environment, it all has a bearing on a renovation project; we will discuss your needs and expectations prior to providing an estimate for the work, ensuring a bespoke result designed to meet the demands of your lifestyle.

"Refurbishment of village hall parquet floor. A very thorough and comprehensive job. Long days spent to ensure work completed quickly."

This and other reviews at Checkatrade

"Ken did a superb job restoring the original parquet floor we discovered under the carpet. We are amazed at the quality of the finished product and his workmanship - so much better than if we had spent the same on new flooring and he said the varnish will protect it now for 20 years."

"Some of the wooden boards were broken and were a lot of holes and gaps. Ken did a fantastic job on the repairs, (replaced missing areas and repairs to damage boards) Sanded floor back from very dark oak to light oak finish, for 3 rooms and hallways. Everything was completed in just 4 days!"

"Ken did an incredible job - having taken up the carpets to find 1970's parquet underneath however, the damage was extensive through multiple rooms. At no point was Ken phased by any of the complexities/difficulties of the job, the quality of the finished product was beyond what we could have expected, it was delivered quicker than we had planned, and Ken is a great guy and particularly personable."

“Ken really cares about doing an excellent job. His work is so good that when neighbours saw it, they booked him to renovate their floors too. He is very reliable, tidy and pleasant and his charges are fair. We have booked him to do the final room on our ground floor.”

"I fear for wooden floors should this man ever retire. Ken is not a tradesman, he is a grandmaster in the art of floor restoration. He talks about his craft with passion and possesses a fanatical obsession with quality. But his work simply speaks for itself. I never leave reviews but for this man I will make an exception."
