Floor Sanding Sandwich

To have floor sanding done correctly it is usually advisable to hire a local Sandwich floor sanding company who have expertise in this kind of work. With some groundwork you'll find that there are several in the Sandwich area and other locations in Kent. Although you could have a crack at doing your own floor sanding it's not actually a do-it-yourself type of task, because some rather costly equipment is required to accomplish it effectively. A reliable Sandwich floor sanding company will come armed with all the right tools.

Hiring a professional floor sanding company in Sandwich should mean that the job will be done properly and with as little mess and dust as possible. If you were to use your own little hand-held sanding device you would quickly get dust everywhere throughout your home and it could take a while to get rid of. With specialist sanding equipment all of the dust is sucked up by an efficient extraction system, leaving only a flawlessly smooth wooden surface that can then be finished appropriately.

Manufacturers such as: Hummer, Pallmann, Lagler and Bona make specialist floor sanding systems, and most of these can of course be rented from tool hire businesses around Sandwich, and elsewhere in Kent, should you need one. If you are using a professional floor sanding company for your project, you will not need to worry about that though. It is however worth bearing in mind if you do choose to do your own floors.

Your Sandwich floor sanding specialists will likely ask you to clear out everything from all the rooms that are going to be worked on, although they may be happy to assist you with this, if you are not able to do it on your own. Speak to them about it beforehand to see what can be agreed. A clean, clear room is vital when carrying out this sort of work, so move all that stuff out! Larger heavy items of furniture could possibly be left in there and moved from end to end, but again talk with the company.

When the floorboards have been sanded with a coarse glasspaper, any required repairs can be carried out before the final fine sanding finish is completed. Missing or broken sections of flooring can be exchanged, splits and cracking can be repaired and any obvious holes left by nails, screws and other fixings can be diligently caulked with a matching coloured wood filler, to give your flooring a professionally finished look.

Sealing and varnishing your freshly sanded flooring is the last part of the process. This is the point when you really notice the difference in your flooring. A coat of a suitable sealer (such as Liberon Floor Sealer), will help to enhance the beautiful natural tones of the timber, provide the varnish with a sound base, and at the same time 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.

Since, pretty much the first thing you think of when looking at the possibility of refurbishing your floorboards is all of the disruption, effort and dust, you may begin to ask yourself whether it is really worthwhile. Before starting such a procedure, it is perhaps advisable to run through the pluses and minuses, to see which comes out on top. After you've done this, you'll certainly have a clearer understanding of what you can hope to gain by sanding down your wooden floor or floors. The cons have already been touched on (disruption, dust and effort), so let's look at the positive aspects, or in short - the benefits.

• Polished Floors Are Easier to Clean: Given that freshly sanded, sealed and polished floorboards do not trap so much dust and dirt, it is going to be a lot easier to keep your floors clean from now on.
• Reduces the Number of Pests and Bugs: Pests and bugs adore the splits and crevices that are found in a tired and unpolished floor. As soon as it's been sanded down and sealed, there are going to be fewer crannies where these pests can hide.
• Makes Your Floor Look Beautiful Once More: With a previously exposed wooden floor it's more than likely to show a few signs of wear in time and the sanding and buffing procedure will return it to its former glory.

Floor Restoration Sandwich

Of course, not all floors in Sandwich are made of wood, and wooden flooring doesn't necessarily have to be sanded down to bring it back to its former glory. A reliable Sandwich floor restoration specialist will always have a thorough knowledge of the most effective methods for repairing a worn or damaged floor, whether it's made of wood, concrete, granite or tiles.

Before any real cosmetic floor restoration work commences, various processes like dehumidification, decontamination and disinfection, may be needed according to the condition of the floor. In cases when there has been a dripping washing machine or water pipe, moisture will quickly seep into cracks and imperfections in the flooring and start to cause serious issues. Bacteria, fungi and mould can build up when water remains in your flooring for any significant length of time. It's essential that these issues are dealt with without causing any extra injury to the flooring or the property's residents, and expert floor restorers in Sandwich will know precisely how to do this. Keeping flooring clean and regularly checking washing machines and pipes is an excellent way to prevent these occurrences happening in the first place.

Maintenance of Wood Floors

When your floor has been completed, you shouldn't just think that it can be left for year after year without any form of routine maintenance. Keep it well cleaned and keep an eye open for any worn or scuffed areas. If any area of a varnished floor is allowed to wear through to the bare wood, it can be very difficult to repair, therefore an occasional coat of fresh varnish or two coats of acrylic sealant will help it to hold up for longer without the need for re-sanding.
