Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors can involve a wide range of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even entirely removing and replacing floors.

In older homes with period floors such as flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, renovation will typically require repair and cleaning of the present floor as it will likely be an attractive element of the property. In newer houses with carpet or hardwood floors, restoration is more likely to involve completely changing the current floors, either like for like utilising a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden flooring, the procedure of renovation generally consists of sanding the top layer of real wood down, cleaning and then revarnishing or staining. Tile flooring 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 issues or damage will generally require replacing the carpet.
