Our Hacklinge Total Floor Care Process
Professional Sanding Techniques
We restore damaged floors using industrial-grade equipment that removes scratches without compromising structural integrity. Our 3-stage process includes:
- Coarse sanding (40-60 grit) to eliminate deep imperfections
- Medium refinement (80-100 grit) for surface leveling
- Fine finishing (120+ grit) creating silky-smooth surfaces
Structural Repairs
From warped boards to gap filling, we address:
- Subfloor moisture damage remediation
- Individual plank replacement matching original species like Buckingham Solid Oak or Blenheim Black Walnut
- Creak elimination through joist reinforcement
Sealing & Protection
Using moisture-resistant sealants, we prevent:
- Water infiltration in humid Kent climates
- Stain penetration from spills
- UV-related discoloration

Why Hacklinge Homes Need Specialized Care
Kent’s coastal climate presents unique challenges:
- Salt air corrosion accelerates finish degradation
- High humidity levels cause wood expansion/contraction – mitigated by maintaining 30-50% humidity as in our climate-controlled installations
- Sandy soils increase abrasive particle accumulation
The Met Office provides detailed climate analysis for coastal regions like Kent, explaining humidity’s impact on materials.
