Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors could entail 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 depend on the type of the existing floor. In older properties with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, restoration will usually include repair and cleaning of the existing floor as it will likely be a desirable element of the property. In newer houses with carpet or hardwood flooring, restoration is more likely to require completely replacing the existing floors, either like for like utilising a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden flooring, the approach of renovation typically entails 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, accompanied by regrouting or resealing. For carpets, maintenance can usually only extend to cleaning of the pile, any further problems or damage will frequently require replacing the carpet. Specialist 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 might also be required for repairing or replacing flooring.
