This floor was approximately 100 years old, and had been covered with carpet for years, but was basically sound. We just had to re-fix the loose staves, and cut a few new pieces where the originals were damaged or missing, and then we sanded and sealed the floor with hardwax oil.
This original parquet floor was long overdue a good sanding and sealing, and we used the tougher 2-pack lacquers that are best for commercial floors subject to hard wear.
This old pitch pine parquet floor (with unusually large and thick blocks) was in a very sorry state, with almost every single block loose and rattling. We lifted the entire floor, stabilising the sub-floor, and re-laid the blocks in exactly the same positions with fresh modern adhesive. Finally we sanded and finished the floor with hardwax oil. The picture shows the floor just as we finished, and before the pews were re-installed.
