Flooring Renovation

Renovating floors could require a wide range of tasks, from cleaning and maintenance, repairing existing flooring or even entirely removing and replacing floors. The sort of restoration work will vary among the variety of the present flooring. In older properties with period floors such as flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, renovation will usually include repair and cleaning of the pre-existing floor as it will likely be an attractive attribute of the house. In modern properties with carpet or hardwood floors, renovation is more likely to consist of completely replacing the existing floors, either like for like utilising a similar material, or by changing from one material to another. For wooden floors, the process of renovation generally 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 exchanged, 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.
