Specialist division
Luxury Flooring & Restoration
Specialist floor restoration, almost dust-free sanding and installation of exceptional timber floors across London. From historic parquet and damaged boards to wide-plank timber and bespoke finishes, we restore, repair and install floors made to last.
Specialist flooring sits at the heart of ArcRock. Our flooring specialists have extensive experience installing, restoring and finishing premium timber floors, including products from Dinesen, Ted Todd and Hørning.
From careful repairs and colour matching to almost dust-free sanding and new installation, each floor is assessed individually and finished to suit the property.
Almost dust-free floor sanding
Sanding is carried out with machines connected to high-efficiency dust extraction, keeping airborne dust to a minimum so homes and working spaces can stay in use. A small amount of fine dust is still possible, and a final clean is always part of the work.
Selected Flooring Project Experience
Our flooring specialists bring extensive experience across cultural institutions, luxury retail destinations and international workplaces.
Design Museum, Tate Modern, Saatchi Gallery, Gazelli Art Gallery, Gucci, Van Cleef & Arpels, Tiffany & Co., Selfridges, Harrods, Google, TikTok, Tom Dixon, Phillips Auction House.
Selected projects undertaken by members of the team, including work prior to the formation of ArcRock Construction.
