Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors could require an array of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even completely removing and replacing flooring. The kind of restoration work will depend on the kind of the current floor. In older buildings with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, renovation will typically consist of repair and cleaning of the current floor as it will likely be an attractive attribute of the house. In contemporary houses with carpet or hardwood flooring, renovation is more likely to consist of completely exchanging the current flooring, either like for like with a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden flooring, the method of renovation generally involves sanding the top layer of wood down, cleaning and then revarnishing or staining. Tile flooring can be cleaned and any broken or damaged tiles substituted, accompanied by regrouting or resealing. For carpets, maintenance can usually only extend to cleaning of the pile, any further issues or damage will commonly require replacing the carpet. Professional floor renovation companies can advise you of the best solution to breathe new life into tired floors or bring old floors up to a high standard. Specialist tools could also be required for repairing or replacing flooring.
