Floor Sanding Great Bookham

Floor sanding isn't for the faint of heart and if you choose to press ahead you will have to be ready for a bit of upheaval. You can manage this to some degree if you elect to do it yourself but not many homeowners in Great Bookham have got the expertise or skill to tackle such a project. Local Great Bookham floor sanding companies will probably be your first port of call and if you cannot find a decent one nearby, there are others dotted around Surrey who should be able to assist you.

The kind of hand held sander that you have in your toolbox is not the proper choice for a project of this size, and you could get yourself in a right pickle if you attempt to take on the task with one of these. Any reputable floor sanding company in Great Bookham won't even consider working with tools like this for such a task and will have specialized floor sanding machines that make short work of the sanding without much dust or mess.

Naturally it's not just the experts who've got access to the very best floor sanders, and you could easily hire the required machinery if you really are determined to tackle this task on your own. Several of the most recognized makes of sanding machines include: Bona, Hummer, Pallmann and Lagler. You're going to need an edging sander and a drum sander, along with some additional equipment, and rather than going into all the details here you can ask the tool hire shop and they will give you what that you need.

Working in a room that is entirely cleared of furniture and other things, is better when you are carrying out the floor sanding operation. The sanders are quite large and needs to be manoeuvred around the room, therefore stuff being in the way isn't very helpful. Clear away everything from the room and let the dog see the rabbit (as they say), it will make the task so much simpler.

To achieve the type of professional finish that you're seeking it will most likely be necessary to do more than just sand down your floorboards and give them a coat of varnish. The chances are there will be some minor defects such as nail holes, screw holes, cracks and splits, and there might even be some larger repairs needed, where sections of floor are damaged or missing. These must all be restored to the best possible standard, caulked with 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.

The sealing and varnishing of your newly sanded floorboards is the last part of the process. This is the point when you can really start to see the difference in your flooring. A layer of an appropriate sealant (such as Liberon Floor Sealer), will help to accentuate the beautiful natural shades of the timber, provide the varnish with a sound base, and offer some further protection against potential damage. Two or three coats of a top quality varnish should then be applied, giving plenty of time for dying between coats.

There is no doubt that there is a certain amount of disruption, dust and hard work involved with sanding down your floorboards. And you may start to wonder if the benefits are really worth all that bother. Before beginning such a procedure, it's generally a good idea to go through the positives and negatives, to see which side comes out in front. Once you've done this, you'll have a clearer understanding of what you can achieve by sanding down your floor. Since we have already touched on the disadvantages (hard work, dust and disruption), now we'll have a look at some of the advantages.

• Reduce the Number of Pests and Bugs in Your Home: Bugs and pests really like the crevices and splits that are the trademark of a worn and unpolished floor. When it's been sanded down and polished, there'll be less crannies where these pests can hide.
• Polished Floors Are Easier to Keep Clean: Cracked and worn flooring is inclined to trap more dirt and dust, and once you've sanded down, sealed and polished those floorboards they're going to be a lot simpler to clean and less likely to harbour dust.
• Makes Your Floor Look New Again: If you already have a wooden floor that has been exposed over a period of time, it will likely be showing signs of wear. The floor sanding and finishing process will re-establish the appeal and attractiveness that your floor previously had.

Maintenance of Wood Floors

It doesn't matter if your floor is in a living room in your home, in a bustling office or in a busy restaurant, it still needs to be looked after and given routine maintenance to keep it in good condition and looking beautiful. Exactly how much maintenance is required will depend on the finish it has been given. Flooring that is oiled can just be cleaned and given a new coating of oil. Lacquered or varnished floors can be cleaned and given a couple of coats of acrylic sealant, or sanded down and treated to a new coat of varnish or lacquer. And hard wax oiled floors can be wiped down, lightly sanded where they're worn and new wax applied.
