There are some popular brands of floor sanding machine including Hummer, Lagler, Bona and Pallmann.

Having a room that is entirely clear of furniture and other paraphernalia, is better when you're undertaking the floor sanding process. The sanders are fairly large and has to be manoeuvred easily around the room, therefore having stuff in the way isn't ideal. Clear away everything from the room and let the dog see the rabbit, it will make the work so much simpler.

To get the sort of professional finish that you're after it will almost certainly be necessary to do a bit more than just sand down your flooring and slap on a layer of varnish. There are bound to be quite a few minor blemishes for example screw holes, splits, nail holes and cracks, and there could even be some larger repairs needed, where pieces of floor are missing or damaged. These must all be restored to the highest possible level, filled with colour-matched wood filler and given a final sanding down. Any wood filler used should match the colour of the floorboards, test an area before the final filling.

The next job is to give the newly sanded flooring a generous coat of sealer, Liberon or Ronseal is usually a good choice. This should provide a perfect base on which to apply the finishing coats of varnish, and offers some valuable extra protection against a variety of issues which might affect your flooring down the line. This will offer resistance to water, heat and alcohol, and will also help prevent scuffing, staining and scratching. Once dry, your floorboards can then be given a quick final sanding with smooth paper and finally 2 or 3 coats of finishing varnish.

When you are looking at the process of sanding down your timber floorboards, you may begin to wonder whether it is actually worth all the effort, dust and disruption. If you find you're having second thoughts about getting this done, it might be a good idea to look at the benefits and drawbacks of the floor sanding process, to ascertain if this persuades you one way or another. We've already outlined the negatives - sanding floors can involve loads of disruption, effort and dust. But how about the pros?

• It is Easier to Keep a Polished Floor Clean: After a wooden floor has been sanded, sealed and polished it will be much simpler to keep clean because all of the splits and cracks will have been eliminated or filled and your freshly polished surface won't attract as much dust and dirt.
• Makes Your Floor Look New Again: If you've already got a timber floor that's been exposed and used for quite some time, it will most likely be showing the telltale signs of deterioration. The floor sanding and finishing process will re-establish the appeal and beauty that your flooring had previously.
• Reduce the Number of Pests in Your Home: Whilst floorboards don't necessarily attract as many bugs and pests as a carpet does, these pests still love to hide themselves in any accessible crevices and cracks that they can find between floorboards. A newly sanded and sealed floor will leave the pests with nowhere to hide.
