Why Choose Us
The commonality between wood floors is never their scale, but the degree of consideration, repair and restoration that goes into every wood floor. In other words, we can sand and restore just about any type of wood floor! It is common to find wood floors that have been ignored because they are considered to be beyond restoration. However, almost all wood floors can be restored beautifully to become the foundation of any room.
Our experience
Our history of sanding and restoring wood goes back over four decades, an invaluable period of learning and gaining experience about all kinds of wood floor sanding projects. As a result, we are able to expertly advise on the repair, restoration and refinishing of any type of wood floor. We have a broad level of experience and expertise in wood floor sanding, and have restored everything ranging from domestic floor boards to parquet floors and a 16th century oak stairs.
We have worked on projects for churches, village halls, sports halls, pubs and restaurants. Throughout the decades, we have come across a multitude of project requirements, helping us build a wealth of knowledge and skill. Our aim is to offer a more hands on traditional approach to wood floor sanding, while combining innovative techniques with modern durable floor finishes.
Your go-to wood floor sanding company
At Acorn Floor Sanding we realised an important truth
Ever changing and ever evolving, we continue to innovate and seek the best solutions
The only way to restore a wood floor, a floor that people would make a deep connection to, is to restore it using traditional methods. As a wood floor sanding specialist, we take a different approach to wood floor sanding because we reject the basic sand and varnish culture of many of our competitors and take pride in restoring the beauty of a wood floor.
We understand that every wood floor has its own unique beauty. We also love to bring that out with our wood floor sanding skills. We understand that no two floors are the same and each floor is unique with its own history. Therefore, it is important that you get the right advice.

1. Preservation - 2. Stabilisation - 3. Restoration

​
Our wood floor sanding recommendations are tailored to each individual wood floor, we understand that no two floors are the same and each floor is unique with its own history.
Wood floor restoration involves a lot more work than sanding a wood floor
And therefore should not be confused with just floor sanding and varnishing which is only a part of a wood floor restoration project. You may be looking to preserve or sympathetically enhance your existing wood floor or you maybe looking to have a full wood floor renovation, either way our experienced craftsmen will be there to advise and restore your wood floor.
No matter what the condition of your floor, we have the experience and know how to transform your floors back to their original glory so they can be regarded as a main feature of your property. Whether a few boards or parquet blocks missing or black perimeters, left by the Victorian's when they used to paint the floor edges black and place rugs in the centre of floors, we will transform your floors.
It has taken years of practice and experimentation to master these wood finishing skills, where we have control over subtle colour variations. This natural passion for innovative, natural surface creation is the fundamental reason why we have become the first port of call for wood floor sanding and finishing.
We understand that every wood floor has its own unique beauty. We also love to bring that out with our wood floor sanding skills. Therefore, it is important that you get the right advice when planning to restore your wood floor.
​
We believe every wood floor is unique and has to be approached in a different way, we try to understand the condition of the wood, we ask ourselves many questions, we draw a strategy, by thinking of all aspects from the start, you get the optimal solution based on the prerequisites that lie in the wood floors current condition.and we look for the right tools and the appropriate approach, and then we let things begin.
This is the core idea of our wood floor sanding and renovation, balancing all the elements of good floor restoration are at the root of the essence of every wood floor we sand. We understand that every wood floor has its own unique beauty. Old and tired floors often hide spectacular beauty, for instance, floor sanding can be used to remove built-up grime and old layers of varnish that hide the colours or grain of your floor. We also love to bring that out with our wood floor sanding skills.
Wood floor sanding covers a whole range of different techniques. These techniques tackle a huge number of problems, from worn and uneven surfaces to loss of colour and pattern, and it is a pleasure to claim it back. Taking in every detail, finding the extraordinary in the ordinary, and ever evolving in our approach to wood floor sanding, it’s this ethos that sets us apart.

A typical wood floor restoration project could involve all of or part of the following:
-
Removal of carpets or other floor covering.
-
Removal of hardboard under carpets.
-
Identifying floorboards that require replacing.
-
Fixing down loose floorboards.
-
Up lifting of floorboards to gain access to sub-floor timber frame work for inspection
-
Repair or replace wood Joists.
-
Re-construction of crumbled brick pillars that support timber joists.
-
Up lifting of wood floors as a whole and relaying to close gaps between floorboards.
-
Replacing or repairing floorboards butchered by plumbers and electricians who have no respect for original floorboards and are only interested in gaining access under floors to install pipes or electric cables. Specialist cutting tools are required to take up old boards without damaging them; electricians and plumbers don’t seem to want to invest in the necessary equipment.

Specialised in House Skills
We have specialist in-house skills and facilities to carry out traditional wood repairs, from the simplest scratch and dent removal, removing watermarks (white cup rings). If the floor has a dent too deep to sand, we are able to fill using appropriate wood filler and colour the filler to match the existing grain pattern, floors can be repaired with missing sections replicated to match the original floor, skilfully toned to blend with the original finish on the floor.
When repairing wood floors, the aim is to achieve a repair that restores not only the appearance but also the original functionality, it is essential that a wood floor repair is carried out in the correct manner, with attention to the type of floor and the type of wood is paramount to ensure the repair is a success. Sections damaged beyond repair can be replaced with reclaimed wood
​
What emerges is a restored and refinished wood floor that holds the history and evidence of its past use.
The success of this process depends on the company doing the sanding; their understanding and skill is the key.
