Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors could entail an array of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even completely removing and replacing floors. The type of renovation work will vary among the form of the existing floor. In older homes with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, restoration will often include repair and cleaning of the present floor as it will likely be an important element of the house. In newer properties with carpet or wood floors, renovation is more likely to require totally changing the current floors, either like for like with a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden flooring, the approach of restoration generally consists of sanding the top layer of hardwood down, cleaning and then revarnishing or staining. Tile floors can be cleaned and any broken or damaged tiles swapped out, followed 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.

Specialist tools are often essential for repairing or replacing flooring.
