Floor Sanding Bodmin

Although floor sanding is not something that's impossible for you to accomplish on your own, you will have to be in a position to get your hands on the proper gear and be confident in using it. If you feel you can, then you could have a bash, but it might be better to get in touch with a local floor sanding company in Bodmin, who will arrive fully geared up to complete the job correctly. If possible get recommendations from folks that you know who have had floor sanding done in the past.

So as to get your floors sanded without creating a huge amount of wood dust and mess an experienced Bodmin floor sanding company will bring in some fairly impressive equipment. Modern day sanding machines are incredibly powerful and have an extraction system incorporated to extract all of the fine dust as it's generated, meaning the entire process is comparatively dust-free. So you can see why attacking it with your little Black & Decker hand-held sander isn't really going to be sufficient for this sort of work.

This specialist floor sanding machinery isn't of course exclusive to the experts, so if you do opt to have a bash at sanding down your own flooring you could always hire out the required equipment which is readily available someplace in the Bodmin or Cornwall area. Tell the hire company what you are up to and they will advise you as to the best machinery for your project. There are some renowned brands of floor sanding machine including Pallmann, Bona, Lagler and Hummer.

Your chosen Bodmin floor sanding contractors will probably ask you to clear out everything from the rooms that are going to be sanded, although they might be prepared to help you with this, if you are unable to do it yourself. Discuss it with them beforehand to see what can be worked out. A clear, clean room is crucial when conducting this type of work, so get all that stuff out of there! Larger heavy items of furniture could possibly be left in there and moved from end to end, but again talk with the company.

As soon as the floor has been sanded with a roughish glasspaper, any essential repair work can be completed before the final fine sanding finish is completed. Missing sections of flooring can be exchanged, cracks and splits can be repaired and any ugly holes left by screws, nails and other fixings can be carefully caulked with a wood filler of matching colour, to give your floor that professionally finished look.

When this has all been done your floor can be finished to your taste with a durable floor varnish. Before this is done it's advisable to give the flooring a minimum of one coat of a good quality oil based sealant like Liberon, which helps to emphasise the wood's natural shades, provides a decent base for the varnish, and offers added protection against stains and scratches.

Seeing as, the first thing you think about when looking at the possibility of sanding your flooring is all the dust, hard work and disruption, you may begin to wonder whether it is actually worthwhile. If you find that you are having doubts about getting this done, it may be advisable to look at the pros and cons of the floor sanding procedure, to see if this sways you one way or the other. The downsides have already been touched on (hard work, disruption and dust), so let's consider the pros, or in short - the benefits.

• It's Easier to Keep a Polished Floor Clean: Given that newly sanded, sealed and polished flooring doesn't trap as much dust and dirt, it's going to be a lot simpler to keep your floors clean from now on.
• Discourages Bugs: There will be less places for pests and bugs to hide themselves when you have sanded and sealed your floor. Let's be honest these pesky insects love to lurk in the cracks and splits of a timber floor.
• Makes Your Floor Look New Again: If your existing wooden floor is starting to look tired and worn, a good sanding and buffing will hopefully make it look like new once again.

Floor Restoration Bodmin

Wood floors don't always have to be sanded down to bring them back to their former glory, and floors of course can be made out of materials other than wood. Floors can be made from stone, wood, tiles or concrete, and a reliable Bodmin floor restoration company will have the expertise and knowledge to refurbish and repair all these surfaces successfully.

Before any real cosmetic floor restoration work commences, different processes like decontamination, dehumidification and disinfection, could be required dependant upon the state of the floor. A common issue with floors is a result of leaking washing machines and water pipes, the moisture from which can quickly soak into imperfections and cracks in the surface of the floor. Standing water which goes stagnant and persists in your flooring can readily stimulate the growth of fungi, bacteria and mould, none of which are acceptable occupants. It's crucial that these problems are treated without causing any extra harm to the floor or the residents of the property, and expert floor restorers in Bodmin will understand just how to do this. As with most things, prevention is better than cure, so to stop these sorts of things happening from the get go, keep a regular eye on water pipes and washing machines and keep your floor surfaces as clean as possible.
