Floor Sanding Southminster

Floor sanding isn't a job for the faint hearted and if you choose to proceed you will need to be ready for quite a bit of upheaval. You could manage this to some degree if you decide to do it yourself but not many householders in Southminster have got the expertise or enthusiasm to tackle a project like this. Local Southminster floor sanding companies will be your first port of call and if you are unable to find a good one nearby, there are others throughout the county of Essex who will be able to assist you.

So as to get your floors sanded without creating a huge amount of dust and mess an experienced Southminster floor sanding company will arrive with some really impressive equipment. Contemporary sanding machines are incredibly powerful and have an incorporated extraction system to draw out all the fine dust as it's created, meaning the whole process is comparatively dust-free. So now you can see why going at it with your modest Black & Decker hand-held sander isn't really going to be acceptable for this type of work.

Manufacturers like: Bona, Pallmann, Lagler and Hummer produce professional floor sanding equipment, and most of these can obviously be hired out from tool hire providers in the Southminster area, and elsewhere in Essex, if you require one. If you are using a professional floor sanding service 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.

Before any actual sanding begins the rooms in question will have to be completely clear of furniture. Carpets and associated flooring materials will need to be taken out, as will nails and screws that are sticking up from the flooring. The sanding equipment has got to be swung around the room, so it's better without any obstructions in the way.

As soon as the flooring has been sanded with a roughish glasspaper, any necessary repairs can be conducted before the final fine sanding finish is completed. Missing pieces of floorboard can be exchanged, splits and cracks can be mended and any obvious holes left by nails, screws and other fittings can be meticulously caulked with a wood filler of matching colour, to give your floor that professionally finished appearance.

The last phase of the process will be sealing and finishing your flooring. These days not everybody uses sealer on wooden flooring since the modern day varnishes are supposed to accomplish the task of sealing and finishing your sanded wood surface. Our opinion is that it's far better to give your floor a coat of sealer first, since this brings forth the natural colour of the wood, provides added protection against scratching and discoloration, and provides an excellent 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 are thinking about the process of sanding down your timber floorboards, you may begin to ask yourself whether it's actually worth all of the dust, disruption and effort. If you are having doubts about whether you want to put yourself and your family through all this inconvenience, it may pay you to run through the benefits and drawbacks of the floor sanding process. Since we have already touched on the negatives (hard work, disruption and dust), now we will take a look at some of the positive aspects.

• Restores the Floor to its Former Glory: With a previously exposed and used timber floor it's more than likely to show some signs of wear over time and the sanding and buffing procedure will bring it back to its former glory.
• Reduces the Number of Bugs: Bugs and pests adore the crevices and splits that are the trademark of a worn and unpolished floor. After it has been sanded and polished, there are going to be fewer places for the bugs to hide.
• It's Easier to Keep a Polished Floor Clean: Once a hardwood floor has been sanded down, sealed and polished it's going to be much easier to keep clean in the future as all of the splits and crevices will have been eliminated or filled and your newly finished surface won't trap so much dust and dirt.

Floor Restoration Southminster

Wooden flooring doesn't necessarily need to be sanded down to bring it back to its former splendour, and floors can of course be made of materials other than wood. Floors can be made from wood, concrete, stone or tiles, and an experienced Southminster floor restoration specialist will have the knowledge and expertise to repair and refurbish all these surfaces successfully.

In general floor restoration involves several different procedures and might require disinfection, dehumidification and decontamination before any real aesthetic work commences. Dampness can rapidly seep into cracks and imperfections in the flooring, in cases where there has been a dripping washing machine or water pipe, and issues can shortly start to emerge. When water persists in your flooring for any length of time, bacteria, fungi and mould can easily develop and grow. It is crucial that these problems are handled without causing any additional harm to the flooring or the residents of the property, and professional floor restorers in Southminster will understand just how to do this. As with most things, prevention is preferable to cure, so to stop these kinds of occurrences from happening in the first place, keep a regular eye on pipes and washing machines and keep your flooring as squeaky clean as possible.
