floor sanding/staining






Here we have an oak floor, oak is a really good wood to take a stain, you can pretty much stain it whatever colour you like and it will turn out really well, here we went for one of the darker stains, then a primer followed by gloss as the finish, all products from bona, we also painted the skirting here to straighten up all lines to the eye

floor sanding/staing






sanded this beech floor right back, stripped all the coating from it to reveal its original colour, beech is quite a light species of wood, here we used a dark oak stain from morrels, then bona polyurethane satin to finish off, nice warm colour for the floor.......

internal painting








Little house renovation just outside Dublin, some skim coat,caulk, and some sanding in the right places goes along way when painting if its done correctly, brings the walls/ceilings to a much better standard, all colours here are from colortrend, great paint to use always a pleasure..........

apartment renovation






Just finished renovating this apartment in Dublin south, we sanded back all the timber-work nearly to the bear timber to get rid of all the old brush marks and imperfections leaving us a blank canvas to start over,designer choose traffic white on the wood/ceilings and then Farrow & Ball Clunch on the walls, nice ,neutral and calming, floors were removed and skirting taken off, once all the painting and repairing is complete we will return to put one more coat on the skirting's after the new floor is gone in, leaving the place brand new.........
