Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors may entail a variety of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even entirely removing and replacing flooring. The sort of renovation work will be based upon the kind of the current flooring. In older properties with period floors such as flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, restoration will typically consist of repair and cleaning of the current floor as it will likely be a desirable element of the home. In modern houses with carpet or wood flooring, restoration is more likely to require completely changing the current floors, either like for like with a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden floors, the approach of restoration commonly involves sanding the top layer of hardwood down, cleaning and then revarnishing or staining. Tile floors 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. Experienced floor renovation companies can advise you of the best method to breathe new life into tired flooring or bring old flooring up to a high standard. Specialist tools might also be required for repairing or replacing flooring.
