Back to Wood floor restoration


Recommended Posts

A massive recommendation for Steve and Nichola who did a fantastic job restoring our floors. They previously were discoloured / covered in blotches of paint after years of neglect but they did an amazing job making them look brand new. Did a great job cleaning up after themselves as well and worked very quickly. Definitely worth the money we paid.


No link with them whatsoever, just a very happy customer (we got their details through searching on here).


Would say that they get booked up in advance (they only came last week and that was their first available week when we spoke to them in Feb) so get in touch with them if you're looking to get your floors done.

Adding to this recommendation for Steve and Nicola at back to wood. They are absolutely brilliant at their job, and are a pleasure to have in the house. They fitted us in at short notice to sand down our ancient, battered floor boards in our kids' bedrooms. They were really helpful with choosing finishes and the transformation is amazing. They are very considerate and left everything clean and tidy. They are coming back soon to sand the rest of the floors. Give them a call, you won't regret it!!

I would also like to recommend Back to Wood. They did an excellent job of sanding and sealing a large kitchen/breakfast room oak floor and a bedroom floor with original pine floor boards. They carried out the first while we were away on holiday and took due care of everything. I can endorse all that is written about them in the above posts.

Hi. We've used Steve and Nicola a couple of times before and they've been brilliant. Last week, we contacted them about a large old Georgian floor board in another part of the house that had split. Steve popped round today, whipped up the floor board, glued and braced it, then replaced it and checked and re-secured some of the creaking floorboards around it - and then refused to take any money from us. Once again, we think they're great.

Steve and Nicola restored our Victorian terrace hall floor in August and did a wonderful job. We are so pleased with it. I booked them back in April purely on the basis of the reviews here and Steve's quotation. The floor was very tired, unstained pine and they restored (filling the many gaps with resin then sanding) and stained it. It now looks really smart without being out of whack with the rest of the house (which is not particularly smart!). They were really great to work with and left the house looking as if nobody had been there. Would definitely recommend them and if anything else crops up in our house that is in their line of work we will be giving them a call. Thank you!

Another recommendation for Steve and Nicola. They have just restored two bedroom floors back to the original floorboards in our house, and now they look amazing. Very impressed with the result given the state of the floors beforehand. They were both very friendly and accommodating. We are really pleased with the final result and would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of having similar works done.

    • I tried to engage one Dulwich by email.  They sent me a lot of flannel but were not prepared to discuss things.  I clearly will not be joining.  I support groups  that campaign to improve the environment, our health and well being etc not single issue groups who want to maintain the status quo.  
    • You have to spend time in the area, only you know what feels right for you. You will then probably have more specific questions to ask which will be easier to answer.
    • I've known of this forum for a while, and given its very active and obviously contains a lot of locals I thought this would be a good place to ask... I have a dilemma and I could find some old thread from '14, but obviously in a decade much has changed with all of these areas (maybe the village less so) - so some background I'll supply, and I'd love to know what folks think on the area that will suit best based on below situation and wants/needs Us Mid/late 30's have lived nearer to Clapham/Brixton for many years - current house large enough but small garden, and Brixton area not great for kids plus long school commute A young kid starting school in the not too distant future (school slap bang in the middle of all the Dulwich's (not state, so without naming it, you get the idea of location) Work remote mostly around St Pauls a few days (both parents) so half decent links to that area of London good  Requirements Access out of London to the SW/W required occasionally by car, don't know anyone further East/South really Want a larger garden for kid/us - ideally semi detached house at the least and nothing smaller than what we have (which rules out most of ED apart from Upland/Friern type houses) Things locally to do with kids (soft play/fun park/cinema etc) and also a few handy shops (Rosendale Road/Park Hall Road would likely cover most little things) Nice and relatively safe neighbourhood feel - currently most of our street are 20 something sharers who aren't able to work out how the wheeliebins work/Brixton nutters roam about here Not too loud, there is a lot of noise where we are now, and its not what I want next time - so away from main road/bus route ideally. Ideally a walk to school or very short car/bike/scooter ride weather permitting it is one of the well known Dulwich schools  My take on things - please correct me/add to this, as I am not a local! Budget is up to around £2m, and in ED to get the same size house (circa 1800 sqft 4/5 bed) I'd probably end up quite a way from things, either on Upland/Friern or the bottom of Peck Rye for example I've seen some houses, seems a bit remote - most of the houses with good access to Lordship are quite small. Houses in the Village are either too expensive or are going to be the same as what I have now albeit with a better garden, but decent neighbourhood feel/access to park/local shops and things etc I feel is peak here of all areas - its nice and quiet - transport is a bit pants mind you Houses in WD seem to be larger in size, have nice sized gardens, depending how close I can get to WD station, the school is very close, there are 3 stations that would work well, and there is a small selection of local shops, feels OK neighbourhood wise? Nearer Norwood end I worry of all the things I dislike about being near Brixton, but maybe that is unfounded.   On balance I think trying to buy something around Rosendale road shops in either direction a couple hundred meters is likely going to offer the best house, best transport options, and meet my criteria with quieter life and being best for the school. But it isn't close to any of the parks really, and is it a bit dull if I get sick of The Rosendale? Dulwich Village I suspect is the best all round option but transport isn't great and obviously its the most expensive, and the LTN on Court Lane makes living in the roads there (which is likely all I could afford) and trying to get out SW a pain as you have to go all the way around. I like Lordship lane the most as a place for 'stuff' (although not sure these days if its that child compatible with loads of young people?), but house wise I'd likely end up too far from anything interesting as anything within a short walk of LL is pretty small and they don't have decent sized gardens. Any opinions welcome and encouraged as short of spending bloody ages online I only know what I know from my handful of visits to either location over the years.
    • You might possibly consider that the the degree of scepticism and suspicion your original post encountered was largely due to the accusatory nature of the title in which you specifically identified a long-standing and respected local business. You also sensationalised the matter by using the words "poisoning" and  "twice!" in the heading.
