Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors can involve a variety of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even entirely removing and replacing floors. The kind of restoration work will vary among the form of the existing floor. In older buildings with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, restoration will typically consist of repair and cleaning of the current floor as it will likely be an important feature of the house. In contemporary properties with carpet or hardwood floors, renovation is more likely to require entirely changing the current floors, either like for like with a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden floors, the process of renovation often 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 swapped, accompanied by regrouting or resealing. For carpets, maintenance can usually only extend to cleaning of the pile, any further issues or damage will typically require replacing the carpet. Experienced floor renovation companies can advise you of the best method to breathe new life into tired floors or bring old floors up to a high standard. Specialist tools could also be necessary for repairing or replacing flooring.
