Suitable floors
Which Floors Can Be Sanded?
Solid pine, hardwood and parquet floors are commonly suitable. Engineered wood requires a sufficient real-wood wear layer and must be assessed carefully.
- Original pine floorboards
- Solid oak and hardwood boards
- Parquet and herringbone blocks
- Suitable engineered wood flooring
- Previously lacquered or oiled timber floors
Laminate cannot be sanded because its visible surface is not a sandable layer of solid timber.
Honest answers
Floor Sanding FAQs
How long does floor sanding take?
Timescale depends on floor area, repairs, filling, stain requirements and the finishing system. A single straightforward room may take one to two working days, while larger multi-room projects take longer.
When can the floor be walked on?
This depends on the product used and environmental conditions. We provide the correct re-entry and furniture guidance for the selected finish.
Do gaps always need filling?
No. Movement, board construction and gap size must be considered. Resin filling and timber slivers are useful in the right situation, but unsuitable filling can fail.
Will sanding remove every stain or mark?
Not always. Deep contamination, historic repairs and colour variation may remain. We explain realistic expectations before finishing.
