Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors could entail a wide range of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even completely removing and replacing floors. The kind of restoration work will vary among the kind of the pre-existing flooring. In older houses with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, restoration will often include repair and cleaning of the pre-existing floor as it will likely be an important attribute of the property. In contemporary homes with carpet or wood flooring, renovation is more likely to involve entirely exchanging the existing flooring, either like for like utilising a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden flooring, the process of renovation usually entails 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, followed by regrouting or resealing. For carpets, maintenance can usually only extend to cleaning of the pile, any further issues or damage will usually require replacing the carpet.

Specialist tools may also be essential for repairing or replacing flooring.
