The type of hand held orbital sander that you most likely have in your home tool kit isn't the proper choice for a job of this size, and you could easily get yourself in a bit of a pickle if you attempt to take on the job with one of these. Any reputable floor sanding company in Barnsley would not even contemplate using tools like this for such work and will have specialized floor sanding machines that make short work of the process without much dust or mess.

Manufacturers such as: Pallmann, Lagler, Bona and Hummer make professional floor sanding machinery, and most of these can of course be hired out from tool hire businesses in the Barnsley area, and in other South Yorkshire places, if you need one.

It is however worth bearing in mind if you do choose to do your own floors.

Although you could maybe move stuff from one side of the room to the other while conducting the sanding, it is much better if the room is completely cleared. This should include furniture and soft furnishings, as well as any pre-existing flooring materials such as carpets, grippers and underlay. Any nails or screws that are sticking up above the floorboards will also need to be removed or punched back in below the surface.

To achieve the type of professional finish that you are looking for it will almost certainly be necessary to do more than just sand down your floorboards and give them a coating of varnish. There are bound to be quite a few minor defects for example splits, screw holes, nail holes and cracks, and there could even be some larger repairs required, where sections of floorboard are damaged or missing. These must all be refurbished to the highest possible level, filled with colour-matched wood filler and then given a final sanding down. Any wood filler used should match the colour of the floorboards, test an area before the final filling.

We've already outlined the disadvantages - floor sanding can involve loads of effort, disruption and dust. But what about the positives?

  • It is Easier to Keep a Polished Floor Clean: Once a hardwood floor has been sanded, sealed and polished it's going to be a lot simpler to clean as all of the crevices and cracks will have been repaired or filled and your newly polished surface will no longer attract so much dust.
  • Reduces the Number of Bugs and Pests: There will be less places for bugs to hide themselves after you've sanded and sealed your floorboards. Let's be honest these pesky insects love to hide away in the crevices and cracks of a wooden floor.
  • Restores the Floor to its Former Glory: If you already have a timber floor which has been exposed for quite some time, it will most likely be showing signs of wear and tear. The sanding and polishing process will bring back the appeal and attractiveness that your flooring previously had.

Floor Restoration Barnsley

Floor restoration comes in many forms, and doesn't invariably involve intensive sanding to restore a floor to its former splendour. In order to have your flooring restored successfully, whether it's made out of granite, tiles, concrete or wood, it would be wise to seek the expertise and help of an established Barnsley floor restoration specialist, who'll have the knowledge and experience with all of these materials.

In general floor restoration entails various different processes and might require disinfection, dehumidification and decontamination before any real cosmetic work begins. In situations when there has been a leaky water pipe or washing machine, dampness will quickly seep into cracks and imperfections in the flooring and start to cause issues. When water persists in your floors for any significant period of time, bacteria, mould and fungi can easily develop and grow. Without causing any harm to the floor or the residents of the property, professional floor restorers in Barnsley will understand exactly how to handle these issues. A great way to stop these occurrences happening in the first place is to keep floors clean and check washing machines and pipes regularly.

Barnsley Wood Floor Maintenance

It doesn't matter if a floor is in a lively pub, in an industrious office or in a bedroom in your house, it must still be cared for and given frequent maintenance to keep it in good condition and looking beautiful. Precisely how much maintenance it needs will depend somewhat on the finish it has been given. Floors that are oiled can just be wiped clean and given a new coat of oil. Lacquered or varnished floorboards can be cleaned and given a coat or two of acrylic seal, or sanded down and treated to a fresh coat of varnish or lacquer. Hard wax oiled floors can be cleaned, delicately sanded where they are worn and new wax put on.
