Here in South London, we had the pleasure of Sanding this stunning Parquet floor in this amazing home. The floor had been fumed during its manufacturing process (at the factory), this is done using a specialist chamber and fogging the timber with ammonia. As the floor had been down for a number of years before we called in as it had started to show signs of wear.

We began sanding very carefully, removing as minimal surface as we could so we did not remove the fumed effect (interestingly the fuming process doesn’t go right through the wood, only a couple mm on the surface). After the main sanding was complete, we mass filled the floors, followed by fine sanding and 2 coats of Hardwax Oil to really complement this wonderful Herringbone.
