    Nice work Gary.
    Makes you wonder why people let them floors get into such a mess. What products did you use?
    I remember cleaning up a victorian floor in Dulwich Village, about 7 years ago. The previous owner's of the property had put carpet over it, damaging the peremiter tiles by nailing carpet grippers to it. Spent 2 days patching up and cleaning it. Very hard graft, didn't really know what I was doing. With great products like Nanoscrub, must make it much easier.

    Do you get many of them Gary. You could make a killing around all the little villages in London.
    Highgate, Blackheath, Dulwich, Wimbledon, Richmond, Barnes......... All full of victorian floor's in need of restoration.
