Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors can require a wide range of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even entirely removing and replacing floors. The type of restoration work will depend upon the type of the pre-existing flooring. In older properties with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, renovation is likely to include repair and cleaning of the present floor as it will likely be an attractive attribute of the home. In contemporary homes with carpet or wood flooring, restoration is more likely to require entirely replacing the current flooring, either like for like employing a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden flooring, the procedure of restoration usually consists of sanding the top layer of wood down, cleaning and then revarnishing or staining. Tile floors can be cleaned and any broken or damaged tiles exchanged, 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.
