Looking for the best way to protect your timber floors? A quality wooden floor sealer is essential for durability, stain resistance, and showcasing the natural beauty of your timber.

Timber Coating

Why Use a Wooden Floor Sealer?

Wood is a natural, porous material that can easily absorb moisture, oils, and contaminants. Without proper sealing, your timber floors can warp, crack, or stain over time. A high-quality wooden floor sealer forms a protective barrier, prolonging the life and look of your floors.


Key Benefits of Sealing Wooden Floors

  • Moisture Protection – Prevents water ingress and reduces swelling or warping.

  • Enhanced Appearance – Deepens natural grain tones and adds a subtle sheen.

  • Scratch & Stain Resistance – Shields against daily wear, spills, and marks.

  • Easy Maintenance – Makes cleaning simple and prolongs recoat intervals.


Water-Based vs. Solvent-Based Sealers

  • Water-based sealers are eco-friendly, low in VOCs, and dry quickly with a natural finish.

  • Solvent-based sealers offer deep penetration and a richer finish but may emit stronger fumes during application.


Ideal Applications

Wooden floor sealers are perfect for:

  • Residential timber floors

  • Commercial wooden hallways

  • Cafés, retail spaces, and offices

  • Reclaimed or recycled timber surfaces


How to Choose the Right Sealer

When selecting a sealer, consider:


  • The level of foot traffic

  • Desired gloss level (matte, satin, gloss)

  • Application method (brush, roller, or mop)

  • Drying time and curing period


For timber that’s already been coated, ensure compatibility between your new sealer and the existing finish.
