Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors may require a wide range of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even completely removing and replacing flooring. The sort of restoration work will be based upon the form of the present floor. In older properties with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, restoration will generally require repair and cleaning of the present floor as it will likely be an attractive attribute of the property. In contemporary homes with carpet or wood floors, restoration is more likely to require entirely replacing the current floors, either like for like utilising a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden floors, the method of renovation commonly entails sanding the top layer of hardwood 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 frequently require replacing the carpet.
