Beautiful wooden floors can last for generations, but everyday traffic, scratches, worn finishes and years of use can gradually take their toll.
Wessex Floor Care provides specialist wood floor cleaning, sanding and restoration across Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire, helping restore tired timber floors while retaining their natural character.
As Bona Certified Craftsmen, we use professional equipment and specialist techniques to achieve high-quality results with minimal disruption.
A wooden floor isn't simply something to clean. The timber species, existing finish, age, construction and condition all influence how it should be treated. Some floors need little more than a professional clean and refresh.
Others benefit from sanding, gap filling and a complete new finish. We assess your floor before recommending the most appropriate approach.
Our wood floor services include:

One of the biggest concerns customers have when considering floor sanding is dust.
Our specialist sanding equipment is designed to capture the vast majority of sanding dust at source, providing a 99% dust-free sanding process and helping minimise disruption within your property.
While no sanding process can honestly be described as completely dust-free, modern professional equipment makes an enormous difference.
Professional cleaning can remove accumulated dirt and residues from timber floors while helping refresh their appearance. Sanding removes worn surface finishes and imperfections, preparing the timber for a new finish.
Once prepared, timber can be refinished to provide the appearance and level of protection appropriate to the floor and its use. Filling gaps between boards can become particularly noticeable as timber naturally moves over time. Where appropriate, gap filling can form part of the restoration process to create a more consistent finished appearance.
Wood flooring in period and country homes often forms an important part of the property's character. Our restoration approach focuses on preserving the natural beauty and history of the timber while carefully removing years of wear, marks and dull finishes.
In luxury residences and apartments, beautifully maintained flooring is an important part of the overall finish. We provide meticulous cleaning, sanding and refinishing to create a refined result that complements high-quality interiors and protects the investment in the property.
Historic and heritage properties require a sensitive approach to timber restoration. We work carefully with existing floors to retain their character and original features, using appropriate techniques to restore appearance and extend the life of the flooring wherever possible.
In commercial and hospitality environments, timber floors need to withstand heavy footfall without compromising presentation. Our professional cleaning, sanding and refinishing services help restore worn flooring, minimise disruption and keep high-traffic spaces looking their best.
