Floor Sanding Chesterfield

If you do opt to forge ahead and get your wooden floors sanded down you'll need to find the right people to do it. A swift search on the internet or in the local Chesterfield newspaper will highlight several prospects. Conversely, you could just ask family or friends to recommend someone. Carrying out floor sanding by yourself is probably not an option unless of course you're a really accomplished DIYer, and even then you'll need to hire some pretty hefty equipment which could still be costly.

Hiring a professional floor sanding company in Chesterfield will mean that the job is done correctly and with the minimum amount of dust and mess as possible. If you used your own little hand-held sanding machine you would soon get dust all over your home and it could take ages to get rid of. With professional sanding equipment all of the dust is drawn up by a powerful extraction system, leaving just a perfectly smooth wood surface which can then be appropriately finished.

Of course it is not only the experts who've got access to the finest floor sanders, and you should easily be able to hire the required equipment if you're really serious about tackling the task yourself. Several of the most common makes of sanding machines include: Pallmann, Hummer, Lagler and Bona. You will need a drum sander and an edging sander, along with some associated equipment, and rather than going into all of the details here you can ask the hire shop and they will provide you with what that you need.

Even though it may not necessarily be essential, you should really totally clear any of your rooms that need to be sanded. The floor sanding equipment is quite cumbersome and whoever is doing the work needs to have enough room to swing it around. A clear, clean room will certainly make the entire process easier, so if you're able to do this, so much the better.

In order to get your floor up to the required standard there will be some additional work that needs doing before any finishing or sealing can take place. There may be some cracks and splits in the floor boards and also screw or nail holes, which will all need to be filled with a suitably coloured wood filler. The repaired areas will need to be given a final rub down with a fine abrasive to give that super fine finish.

The next task is to give the sanded floor a generous coat of sealer, Liberon or Ronseal is generally a good choice. This should provide the perfect base on which to apply the finishing coats of floor varnish, and offers some additional protection against a variety of issues that might have an impact on your flooring in the future. This will guard against the harmful effects of water, alcohol and heat, and also help in the prevention of scuffing, staining and scratching. Once dry, your floorboards can then be given a quick final sanding with smooth paper and finally 2 or 3 coats of finishing varnish.

When you are looking at the possibility of refurbishing your wooden floor, you might begin to ask yourself whether it's really worth all of the hard work, disruption and dust. Before starting such a process, it's perhaps a wise idea to go through the pros and cons, to see which side comes out on top. As soon as you have done this, you will have a better insight of what you can gain by sanding down your wooden floors. The cons have already been highlighted (dust, disruption and effort), so let's consider the positive aspects, or in short - the benefits.

• Reduces the Number of Bugs and Pests: There will be less places for bugs to hide once you have sanded and polished your floorboards. Let's face it these pests love to hide in the splits and crevices of a timber floor.
• Makes Your Floor Look New Again: With a previously exposed and used wooden floor it is more than likely to show a few signs of wear over time and the sanding and polishing process will return it to its former glory.
• It's Easier to Keep a Polished Floor Clean: Given that freshly sanded, sealed and polished flooring doesn't trap so much dust, it will be far easier to keep your floors clean in the future.

Floor Restoration Chesterfield

Wood floors do not always have to be sanded down to bring them back to their former splendour, and floors of course can be made from materials other than wood. Floors can be made out of wood, tiles, marble or concrete, and a reliable Chesterfield floor restoration company will have the expertise and knowledge to refurbish and repair all these surfaces effectively.

Before any real cosmetic floor restoration work begins, different procedures like disinfection, dehumidification and decontamination, could be necessary according to the condition of the flooring. In instances where there's been a leaky water pipe or washing machine, moisture will rapidly soak into cracks and imperfections in the flooring and start to cause problems. Water that goes stagnant and persists in your flooring can readily encourage the growth of bacteria, fungi and mould, none of which are acceptable guests. It's vital that these issues are dealt with without causing any additional injury to the floor or the property's residents, and experienced floor restorers in Chesterfield will understand precisely how to accomplish this. A good way to stop such things happening from the get go is to keep floors squeaky clean and check pipes and washing machines regularly.

Floor Sanding Machines Chesterfield

The primary bit of kit when tackling floor renovation on a timber floor in Chesterfield, is a floor sanding machine. It doesn't end there however, because in order to do a proper job, 3 different forms of floor sanding machine will be required. In order of use, the machines that will be needed are a belt sander, an edging machine and a buffing machine. In some instances, corner sanders, stair sanders and orbital sanders will also be used, confusing the issue even more.

Brands specialising in the manufacturing of floor sanding machinery include Pallmann, Hummer, Lagler and Bona, and these are generally accepted as the most reliable machines available. Most home and business owners in Chesterfield will only carry out this process once, therefore the cost of buying these devices would be astronomical, so hiring is the better option. While the cost of renting floor sanding machinery is quite reasonable, the expenditure can be pushed up substantially by the essential extras such as abrasives, which you must have. Calling on a specialist floor sanding service in Chesterfield, means that you don't have to stress about all these choices and options, and can relax knowing that the job will be completed successfully.
