The sort of restoration work will vary among the variety of the pre-existing floor. In older houses with period floors like flagstone, quarry tile or parquet, renovation will generally entail repair and cleaning of the pre-existing floor as it will likely be an attractive attribute of the home.

For wooden floors, the approach of restoration generally consists of sanding the top layer of hardwood down, cleaning and then revarnishing or staining.

For carpets, maintenance can usually only extend to cleaning of the pile, any further problems or damage will frequently require replacing the carpet.
