Clapham sits at the centre of the South London map for what we do, somewhere between five and ten jobs a year in SW4 alone, plus the streets running into Clapham Common North and South. The housing stock is overwhelmingly late-Victorian terrace and Edwardian conversion, which means original pine floorboards under decades of paint and carpet, with the occasional herringbone parquet finding from kitchen extensions and lounge knockthroughs.
The single most common job in Clapham is taking a tired pine ground floor, usually painted, water-marked or both, and sanding it back to bare timber for a clean stain or natural Bona finish. Hallway through to kitchen, sometimes through to the rear extension where the boards transition to engineered. We see a lot of family homes that were rented for ten years and need every room brought back at once.
Housing stock: Late-Victorian terraces, Edwardian conversions, modern rear extensions over original pine. Original herringbone parquet shows up in older single-family houses around Clapham Common and Macaulay Road.
Coverage: We're a 25-minute drive from Clapham and work in the area weekly. Surveys are scheduled within a week, often within 48 hours.

Yes, that's our bread and butter. Sanding pulls off paint, varnish, decades of grime and the top layer of greyed timber. Underneath, the pine is almost always solid and ready for stain or oil.
Yes, for almost every postcode we cover. We come out, look at the floor, take measurements and send a detailed quote within 48 hours. No deposit, no obligation.
Our sanders run on sealed Bona and Lägler extraction units that capture around 95% of the dust at source. You won't get the cloud-the-house effect that older sanders leave behind.
Yes. We work room by room and leave the rest of the house usable. You can sleep in the property the same night a sand is happening, in a different room.
