Another recommendation for Back to Wood floor sanding

Recommended Posts

Steve and the team at Back to Wood did a great job sanding and repairing the floorboards in our kitchen and hallway. They held keys while we were on holiday and what a treat coming back to what feels like a new ground floor of the house. It is now light and airy as the boards are at their natural best, previously they were dark and heavily varnished. The care taken on repairing split boards and levelling those that had risen is much appreciated. Cannot recommend them enough. Steve is on 07949 411650.

I would endorse the positive reviews for Steve Loftus and Back to Wood. The whole process was very straightforward from start to finish: a thorough look at the floors, then a fair estimate, managing to work on the dates we needed, doing a great job and leaving the house much cleaner than we had feared. Highly recommended.

I'm seriously considering having our floors sanded but my husband thinks it will be cheaper to lay carpet. I'm hoping to convince him otherwise, it would be very helpful if you could share the cost of having yours done? Do PM me if you don't want to share in the open forum! TIA

Just wanted to write another glowing review for Steve and Nicola of Back to Wood. They have restored our bedroom and hallway floorboards beautifully and are currently doing our living room. Each time they've been prompt, exceptionally clean and tidy and just lovely to have around. The costs were far better than laying a new floor and we've managed to retain the lovely patina and character of the original Victorian boards.

Highly recommended; we will be getting them back when we need another room doing.

Another ***** recommendation for Steve & Nicola who sanded down the wooden floor in our kitchen and reception room this summer, for a very fair price. They did an incredible job and the floor looks basically new. We've had so many positive comments from friends who have come over. I also appreciated how much of a perfectionist Steve was - we had lots of other contractors in at around the same time and he gave lots of instructions to make sure they didn't undo any of his good work. Would hire them again in a heartbeat.
And another positive endorsement of Steve and Nicola at Back to Wood. They've just finished doing out hallway and kitchen/diner in SE21. Boards were definitely in need of some TLC, being over ten years since they were last done, but they now look absolutely lovely. Exceeded my expectations, so really pleased. Steve and Nicola are super easy to deal with, and just got on and did a great job. Also, almost zero dust when we returned to the house, which is pretty amazing. No hesitation in recommending and would use again for sure.

I?d also like to recommend Back To Wood. They did such a beautiful job on our stairs and hallway and totally exceeded my expectations. Steve and Nicola are extremely professional and responsive, I felt they really made an effort to make sure I was happy with the colour and finish. And I am!

    • Hi - I posted a request for some help with a stuck door and possible leaky roof. I had responses from Lukasz at Look_as.com and Pawel at Sublime Builders. I don't see any/many reviews - has anyone used either person?  Could use a recommendation rather then just being contact by the tradespeople... Many Thanks 
    • I'm a bit worried by your sudden involvement on this Forum.  The former Prince Andrew is now Andrew Mountbatten Windsor Mountbatten in an anglicisation of Von Battenburg adopted by that branch of our Royal Family in 1917 due to anti-German sentiment. Another anglicisation could be simply Battenburg as in the checker board cake.  So I surmise that your are Andrew Battenburg, aka Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and that you have infiltrated social media so that the country can put the emphasis on Mandelson ather than yourself.  Bit of a failure. I don't expect an answer from police custody.  
    • We had John fit our PLYKEA kitchen (IKEA cabinets with custom doors) and would happily recommend him and Gabi to anyone. Gabi handled all communication and was brilliant throughout — responsive and happy to answer questions however detailed. John is meticulous, cares about the small details, and was a pleasure to have in the house. The carpentry required for the custom doors was done to a high standard, and he even refinished the plumbing under the sink to sit better with the new cabinets — a small touch that made a real difference. They were happy to return and tie up a few things that couldn't be finished in the time, which we appreciated. No hesitations recommending them.
    • Not sure about that. Rockets seems to have (rightly in my view) identified two key motivating elements in Mcash's defection: anger at his previous (arguably shabby) treatment and a (linked) desire to trash the Labour party, nationally and locally. The defection, timed for maximum damage, combined with the invective and moral exhibitionism of his statement counts as rather more than a "hissy fit".  I would add a third motivation of political ambition: it's not inconceivable that he has his eye on the Dulwich & West Norwood seat which is predicted to go Green.  James Barber was indulging in typical LibDem sleight of hand, claiming that Blair introduced austerity to *councils* before the coalition. This is a kind of sixth form debating point. From 1997-1999 Labour broadly stuck to Tory spending totals, meaning there was limited growth in departmental spending, including local govt grants. However local government funding rose substantially in the Noughties, especially in education and social care. It is a matter of record that real-terms local authority spending increased in the Blair / Brown years overall. So he's manifestly wrong (or only right if the focus is on 1997-1999, which would be a bizarre focus and one he didn't include in his claim) but he wasn't claiming Blair introduced austerity more widely.
