A large percentage of London homeowners who have original solid wood flooring in their homes have recognised it for the asset it is and have painstakingly coaxed it back to life, making a truly unique showpiece in every room. In general terms it is expected that a professionally restored wood floor should last, with minimal cleaning and good maintenance, for a decade or more. In a nutshell, the busier the room the shorter the lifespan of the restoration. For example, busy hallways may need resanding and refinishing after only five years, whereas a quiet bedroom may stay pristine for much longer.

London is blessed with such a variety of buildings - old and new, traditional and modern - that the skill in the design and details obscures how much they depended - and still depend - on timber.

A particular historic splendour is expressed in wooden floors, in numerous examples going back to the Tower of London, progressing to Kenwood House, and not forgetting the glorious interiors of the City of London churches.
