Floor sanding and sealing: what the job involves

Bringing an existing timber floor back to bare wood with drum and edge sanders, repairing and filling it, then finishing it in lacquer, oil or hard-wax oil. It suits original pine floorboards, parquet and solid or thick-wear-layer engineered floors.

How long it takes: Usually two to three days for a room or two, most of it drying time between coats; longer for many rooms, stairs or oil finishes.

What affects the price

  • Area and the number of rooms
  • Condition: paint, varnish, staples, damage and gaps
  • Gap filling method
  • Finish: water-based lacquer, oil or hard-wax oil, and staining
  • Stairs, edges and parquet patterns
  • Removing carpet, gripper and staples first
  • VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.
