Hi,
We have recently moved into a small-ish victorian terrace and are thinking of re-sanding and finishing the pine floors in the hall, dining room, living room and one bedroom.

Our house is just outside St Austell. Any local recommendations gratefully accepted!
Thanks for all the friendly and helpful replies :) And cheers to Luis in particular for taking the time to write such a comprehensive answer.

Freddy - I read your post...
Hi,
Not excactly a DIY query but any advice will be gratefully received :)
We have just bought a 3 bed granite cottage that we will be using as a second home and for holiday lettings.
We are planning to convert the loft space into a bedroom and move the main bathroom from the ground...
