Having a room that is completely clear of furniture and other articles, is best when you're doing the floor sanding process. The sanding machines are quite large and needs to be swung around the room, therefore stuff being in the way isn't very helpful. Clear everything out of there and let the dog see the rabbit (as they say), it will make the task run so much more smoothly.

To achieve a beautifully smooth and damage-free floor surface, some additional restoration work might need to be done. The whole floor should be examined with a fine tooth comb to discover any splits, cracks or defects, which can then be mended and filled with an appropriate wood filler. The same consideration can be given to holes left behind by nails and screws and any damage caused by carpet grippers and threshold strips. The wood filler needs to be matched at closely as possible to the colour of the wood.

When all this has been done your flooring can be finished to your taste with a hard wearing varnish. Before this is done it is recommended that you give the floor a minimum of one coat of a good quality oil based sealer such as Liberon, which helps to bring out the wood's natural colours, provides a decent base for varnishing, and offers added protection against scrapes and stains.

There's little doubt that there is a certain amount of hard work, disruption and dust involved with sanding your flooring. And you might start to wonder if the advantages are really worth all of that bother. Before starting such a process, it is perhaps a good idea to go through the advantages and disadvantages, to see which comes out on top. Once you've done this, you'll certainly have a clearer understanding of what you can gain by sanding down your floor. We've already pointed out the disadvantages - sanding floors can entail lots of disruption, dust and effort. But what about the benefits?

  • Polished Floors Are Easier to Clean: Cracked and worn floorboards are inclined to trap more dust, and once you've sanded down, sealed and buffed-up your floorboards they will be much easier to clean and less likely to attract dust.
  • Reduce the Number of Bugs and Pests in Your Home: Bugs and pests like the crevices and splits that are the trademark of a tired and unpolished floor. Once it's been sanded down and sealed, there will be far less places for the bugs to hide.
  • Makes Your Floor Look Beautiful Once More: With a previously exposed and used timber floor it is likely to show a few signs of wear over time and the sanding and polishing process will bring it back to its former glory.

Floor Restoration Bideford

Of course, not all floors in Bideford are made out of wood, and wooden floors don't always need to be sanded down to bring them back to their former splendour. Floors can be constructed from tiles, concrete, stone or wood, and a reputable Bideford floor restoration company will have the knowledge and expertise to repair and restore all these surfaces successfully.

Dependant upon the condition of the floor, certain procedures like decontamination, dehumidification and disinfection, could be necessary before any actual aesthetic floor restoration work is done. Moisture can quickly soak into imperfections and cracks in the floor surface, in cases when there has been a leaky washing machine or water pipe, and serious problems can soon begin to present themselves. Water which goes stagnant and persists in your flooring can readily stimulate the development of fungi, mould and bacteria, none of which are welcome residents. Expert floor restorers in Bideford know precisely how to handle these problems without causing harm to the flooring or the property's residents. As with most things, prevention is preferable to cure, so to stop these sorts of things happening in the first place, keep a regular eye on washing machines and water pipes and keep your floor surfaces as clean as possible.
