Refurbishment of existing hardwood and parquet floors — sanding back worn finishes and refinishing to restore the original wood, without replacing the floor.
Hardwood & Parquet Refurbishing in Hitchin
Hitchin customers looking for hardwood & parquet refurbishing turn to Handy Floors. Hardwood and parquet floors lose their finish over years of foot traffic — the surface lacquer or oil wears thin, scratches accumulate, and the wood beneath can look tired even though it remains structurally sound. Handy Floors refurbishes existing hardwood and parquet floors by sanding back the worn surface finish and applying a fresh lacquer or oil suited to the wood type, bringing the original grain and colour back without the cost or disruption of replacing the floor. This applies to solid hardwood boards as well as traditional parquet block flooring, where individual blocks can also be checked and re-secured if loose. Hitchin is one of Hertfordshire's most attractive market towns, with a medieval street plan, a thriving independent retail quarter around St Mary's Church and the Churchyard, and a diverse mix of period housing stock from timber-framed cottages to Victorian terraces. Many of the older residential properties in the Tilehouse Street conservation area retain original hard floors — encaustic tiles, quarry tiles, or stone flags — where professional restoration is the right approach, and Handy Floors carries out this work regularly across the town.
