Restoring wood floors can transform a space, giving it that luxurious finish we all love. However, there are a few essential things we need from our lovely Suffolk homeowners and commercial clients to ensure the process is as efficient and stress-free as possible. Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty.
The Challenge We Find: Parking, Access, and Preparation
We’re all about delivering that wow result with our wood floor restoration services. But let’s be real for a moment… logistics matter! Our equipment isn’t just big; it’s really big and incredibly heavy.
You need to understand… We’re talking about industrial-grade sanding machines that need to be parked as close as possible to the property.
So, here’s what we need from you to make your wood floor restoration seamless:
Parking Proximity:
- If you’ve got a driveway or can arrange parking directly in front of the house or building, please let us know when booking.
- If you need a parking permit to park outside, we need this to be ready for collection either on the day or before.
- For commercial properties, clear access to designated loading areas is ideal. The closer we can get, the easier (and faster!) the job will be.
Stairs and Lifts:
- If your property has stairs, please inform us in advance. Carrying heavy machinery up several flights can add time and labour to the project.
- Got a lift? Fantastic! But even then, we’ll likely need two technicians to manage the equipment, which may adjust the overall cost of your project.
Clear Communication:
We’re not psychic (though we’d love to be)! When booking, please share your full address, details about parking, and any access challenges. A little planning goes a long way in ensuring everything runs smoothly.
Vacating the Area: Essential for Perfection
Wood floor restoration is an art, and like all great art, it requires patience. Once our technicians have started work, the area needs to remain undisturbed until the project is complete.
Here’s why we need this to make your wood floor restoration seamless:
- Drying Times: After sanding, we apply primers and finishes that need specific drying times to set perfectly. The technicians will keep you informed about these timelines based on the products used.
- Avoiding Imperfections: Foot traffic can lead to blemishes in the finish. While we provide overshoes for emergencies, we strongly recommend staying off the floor until we give you the all-clear. Trust us, the transformation is worth the wait!
- Extended Projects: If your wood floor restoration spans more than a day until we finish, the space must remain vacated. This ensures continuity in the process and helps us deliver the flawless finish you expect.
The Bigger Picture: Making It Easy for Everyone
We know life gets busy, and planning around a restoration project can feel daunting. But a bit of preparation on both sides means less stress and more success!
Here’s how we’re here to help make your wood floor restoration seamless:
