Floor Polishing Newhaven (01273)

Your chosen Newhaven floor sanding specialists will likely request that you clear out everything from any rooms that are to be worked on, though they might be happy to assist you with this, if you are not able to do it yourself. Chat with them about it beforehand to see what can be worked out. A clean, clear room is crucial when carrying out this sort of work, so get all that stuff out!

To end up with a really smooth and damage-free floor surface, a bit of repair work might have to be carried out. The entire floor should be examined with a fine tooth comb to discover any splits, cracks or defects, which can then be mended and filled with a good quality wood filler. Similar attention can be applied to holes left behind by nails and screws and any damage that has been caused by threshold strips and carpet grippers. The wood filler needs to be matched at closely as possible to the colour of the wood.

Floor Finishing Newhaven UK

When all this has been finished the flooring can be finished according to your taste with a hard wearing floor varnish. However, before you do this it is advisable to give your floor a minimum of one coat of a high quality oil based sealant such as Liberon, which helps to emphasise the timber's natural shades, provides a good base for the varnish, and offers additional protection against blemishes and scrapes.

Seeing that, the first thing you think about when looking at the prospect of refurbishing your floorboards is all of the disruption, dust and hard work, you may begin to ask yourself whether it's actually worthwhile. If you find you're having second thoughts about having this done, it might be a good idea to go over the advantages and drawbacks of the floor sanding procedure, to ascertain if that influences you one way or another. Since we've already mentioned the negatives (dust, disruption and effort), now we'll take a look at a few of the advantages.

  • Discourages Bugs and Pests: Even though floorboards don't necessarily harbour as many bugs as a carpet does, these pests still love to hide away in any available cracks and crevices that they are able to find between the floorboards. A sanded and sealed floor should leave the bugs with few places to hide.
  • Makes Your Floor Look Beautiful Once More: If your existing wooden flooring is becoming tired and worn, a good sanding and finishing will hopefully make it look like new once more.
  • It's Easier to Keep a Polished Floor Clean: Once a wooden floor has been sanded, sealed and polished it will be a lot easier to keep clean in the future since all of the cracks and crevices will have been repaired or filled and the freshly finished surface will not trap so much dirt and dust.
