This oak floor was restored in a rural rental property where durability, ease of maintenance, and a contemporary finish were key priorities. The floor was originally coated with a hardwax oil, which, while attractive, required regular upkeep and was less suited to the demands of a rental environment.
Following full professional sanding, the floor was refinished using a high-performance, hard-wearing water-based lacquer by Loba. This modern finish provides a clean, natural look while offering excellent resistance to wear, making it ideal for high-use rental properties.
The result is a smooth, even, low-maintenance floor that retains the character of the oak while delivering a practical, long-lasting solution suited to modern living.
