Re-sanded Stockbridge flat, dyed with mid-Oak stain

This Stockbridge flat was re-sanded and coloured, having been poorly sanded by a previous owner. As well as replacing a few damaged floorboards, the client wished that we filled all the gaps as there were cooking smells and drafts from the property below.

The dye selected was light-fast mid-Oak colour, giving a rich warm feel throughout. The colour enabled us to blend areas of recently installed floorboards in the bedroom, to match the original boards in the small bedroom, living room and hallway.
