Floor Restoration Services for Schools

Floor sanding and sports lacquer for schools in Cobham, with court markings and full RAMS.

Floor restoration for schools in Cobham

School floors take a pounding: PE lessons, assemblies, lunch sittings and after-school clubs, every single day. Worn lacquer, faded lines and loose blocks are not just unsightly - they can become a safety issue. Our team restores school floors so they are safe, hardwearing and good-looking again.

Our school services

  • Full sanding and refinishing of sports halls, assembly halls and classrooms

  • Slip-resistant sports lacquers suited to PE and games

  • Court markings painted between coats and sealed under the final lacquer

  • Repairs to loose parquet and damaged boards

Planned around the school year

Most of our school work is booked into the holidays, and the summer fills up quickly. We agree a clear programme with the school business manager or site team, including curing times, so the floor is ready for the first day back. Smaller jobs, such as a single classroom, can sometimes be done over a long weekend.

Paperwork for schools

Every school project includes full RAMS, COSHH data for our finishes and our £5m public liability insurance certificate. Our team follows your safeguarding and site procedures at all times.

Restoration vs replacement

Many school halls have solid maple, beech or oak floors that were built to last for generations. A restoration is far cheaper than a replacement and much quicker to complete. It is also the greener option, keeping good timber in use. Our fixed quotes make budgeting and approval straightforward.

Between restorations

A simple maintenance plan keeps a school floor in good condition for years. Barrier mats, pH-neutral cleaners and periodic re-coats all extend the life of the finish. Your site team receives written cleaning and care guidance.

More for your school

School work is part of our wider public spaces service. A lacquer re-coat every few years extends the life of the floor between full sands. Loose blocks are fixed through our parquet floor repairs. Have a look at our recent projects.

FAQ

Questions about floor restoration services for schools

All questions
Is floor sanding messy?

Very little. Our dust-free sanding systems capture around 99% of dust at source, so your home stays clean while we work. We also sheet off doorways and protect adjoining rooms before we start.

Where do you work?

Our team works across Cobham and the neighbouring towns and villages. Not sure if you are covered?, send us a message — we can usually help for larger jobs.

How soon can we use the room?

Light foot traffic in socks is usually fine after a few hours. Furniture can go back after 24–48 hours, and rugs are best left off for around a week while the finish fully cures.

Do you work evenings and weekends?

Yes — we plan school and public projects around term dates, events and opening hours. Large halls are often completed within a week, so the space is back in use quickly.

Do you do court lines on hall floors?

Yes. After sanding we apply sports-grade lacquer and can repaint court markings to your layout between coats so they are sealed in. Read more about our school floor restoration.

Do you provide risk assessments and method statements?

We provide risk assessments, method statements and insurance details before work begins. Our team is used to working on occupied sites with strict safety rules.
