Our experience

Working with the wood itself

Oakstead concentrates specifically on timber materials and flooring longevity. Our work spans renewing seasoned boards already in place, restoring historic wood floors, and fitting new timber into finished homes.

Every project begins by reading the floor itself: its species, its age, and how it has settled. That understanding shapes how we sand, repair, and finish it, and which options we recommend.

How we work

Standards behind every floor

Subfloor preparation

Practical experience guides preparation, moisture testing, and wood fitting before any board is laid or sanded.

Dust management

Sanding is contained and cleaned as we go, so your home stays usable and tidy throughout the job.

Finish durability

We choose finishes suited to the wood and the traffic it will carry, then explain how to keep them looking well.
