While you could possibly move stuff to one side while doing the sanding, it's 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, underlay and grippers. Any nails or screws that are protruding from the floorboards will also need to be removed or punched back in below the surface.

In order to get your newly sanded foor up to the desired standard there will be some more work to do before any sealing or finishing can take place. There may be some cracks and splits in the boards and also screw and nail holes, that will all need to be filled with a suitably coloured wood filler. The restored areas will need to be given a final sanding with a fine abrasive to give that super fine finish.

Floor Finishing Long Ashton UK

The last phase of the process will be finishing and sealing your floorboards. Currently not everyone uses sealer on wood floors because the modern varnishes are claimed to accomplish the task of finishing and sealing your sanded wood surface. Our own opinion is that it is better to give your flooring a good coat of sealer first, as this reveals the natural tones of the wood, offers added protection against scratching and staining, and gives the perfect base for the final coating of varnish. For varnishing use a good quality polyurethane product such as Ronseal Diamond Hard Floor Varnish and give it two or three coats.

When you're thinking about the process of sanding down your hardwood flooring, you may begin to wonder whether it is actually worth all the effort, dust and disruption. If you find you're having doubts about having this done, it may be advisable to look at the advantages and disadvantages of the floor sanding process, to see if that influences you one way or another. We've already outlined the cons - floor sanding can entail lots of hard work, disruption and dust. But what about the advantages?

  • It is Easier to Keep a Polished Floor Clean: When a hardwood floor has been sanded down, sealed and polished it will be a lot simpler to keep clean because all the crevices and splits will have been repaired or filled and the newly finished surface will no longer trap so much dust.
  • Makes Your Floor Look Beautiful Once More: If your existing wooden flooring is beginning to look tired and worn, a thorough sanding and finishing will make it look like new once again.
  • Reduces the Number of Pests: There will be far less places for pests and bugs to hide after you've sanded and polished your floor. Let's face it these pesky insects love to hide in the cracks and crevices of a hardwood floor.

Floor Scratch and Dent Repair

Floor repair is essential for maintaining the visual appeal and structural integrity of various flooring surfaces, from hardwood and laminate to vinyl and tile. Whether in commercial spaces, offices or homes in Long Ashton, scuff marks and dents can accumulate over time due to daily activities, moving furniture or accidents. The correct approach to successfully addressing such imperfections will restore the original beauty of the floor. The surface of a floor can be scarred by scratches, often caused by the grit carried by shoes, or the movement of objects across it. This can make the floor look worn and tired. The smoothness of the floor can be disrupted by depressions, which are caused by weighty objects being placed with impact or dropped. These depressions are called dents. Both of these issues can weaken the flooring material if not treated promptly, and they are also unsightly. (65432)
