We recently completed a comprehensive wood floor replacement project for the Timberland Outlet located in the bustling Gunwharf Quays shopping centre, Portsmouth. The original floor, showing significant wear from years of heavy foot traffic, required full replacement to maintain the store’s welcoming and professional appearance. Our team managed the project from start to finish, including removing the old flooring, installing new wood planks, colour matching for brand consistency, and applying a durable varnish to ensure a long-lasting, attractive finish.
This transformation not only rejuvenated the look of the store but also enhanced the overall shopping experience for visitors.
In this project we had to conduct all works out of business hours. In addition we had to mach the exact floor colour and the type of wood(ie staining), as per all all Timberland stores vision. Thus the new flooring material was shipped directly from Italy.
Our wood floor replacement process included several critical stages to ensure a high-quality, durable outcome:
1. Removal of Old Flooring
We began by carefully removing the existing, worn-out wood floor. This step involved the use of professional tools and dust-free methods to minimize disruption and maintain a clean environment for the store’s inventory.
2. Subfloor Preparation
Once the old flooring was removed, we inspected and prepared the subfloor to ensure it was level and free from any imperfections. Proper subfloor preparation is essential for a seamless installation and the longevity of the new wood flooring.
3. Installation of New Wood Planks
The new, high-quality wood planks were meticulously laid with precision and expertise. Our installation process guarantees a smooth and uniform surface that can withstand the heavy traffic typical of retail spaces like Timberland.
4. Custom Colour Matching
To align with Timberland’s iconic natural aesthetic, we colour-matched the new wood floor to blend seamlessly with the store’s design and brand ethos. This step involved selecting the perfect wood stain and applying it uniformly across the entire surface.
5. Application of Durable Varnish
Finally, we applied a high-quality, commercial-grade varnish that not only enhanced the colour but provided an added layer of protection. This varnish is designed to withstand the wear and tear of daily use, ensuring the floor remains vibrant and protected from scratches, scuffs, and spills.
6. Final Inspection and Touch-Ups
Our team completed the project with a thorough inspection, addressing any minor adjustments or touch-ups needed to meet our exacting standards. This step confirmed the Timberland Outlet’s new floor met both aesthetic and functional requirements.
The new wood floor installation at the Timberland Outlet in Gunwharf Quays transformed the store’s appearance. The rich, warm tones of the wood, combined with the sleek finish of the varnish, provided an inviting and cohesive look that enhanced the shopping experience. The robust varnish application ensures the floor can withstand significant foot traffic while maintaining its polished appearance.
