You Need The Best Crew To Renovate Wood Floors For Your Home

By Laura Barnes


All of the wooden floors you have in our home were purchased and installed because they provide warmth and beauty. They do this because they project a statement about you and your family that you want to make to others. They have been abused and, if not maintained, can become something that is not beautiful anymore. That is why it is necessary, from time to time to contact a company that can renovate wood floors for you.

You will be able to locate many of these helpful experts by checking in the local phone directories. You will also find information by checking home services review websites. Previous clients will help you understand their abilities and recount what they were able to do. This will help you become better prepared for them.

If your floor has simply lost its luster, you can sweep it thoroughly and mop it with a commercially available polish. This will clean the floor and return it to a nice looking floor. You can make the surface into a matte, or flat surface or a gloss depending on the type of compound you get. Anything further than this and you will need a professional crew.

The crew you call will arrive and determine, through a thorough inspection, what needs to be done to bring your floor back around. There are several activities that can be accomplished, depending on what the condition is and what you would like to walk on going forward. Looking at some of them will help you see the issue clearly.

If you have a few scratches on your floor and a couple of small holes, a scrubbing will probably be recommended. This is accomplished with a floor scrubber and a steel wool type pad. It will smooth out the surface. It will also fill in these small holes with the material scrubbed up. This is followed by a cleaning and a thin coat of wax.

A deeper cleaning and scratch removal system is the actual sanding that can be done. This is great for floors that are not missing any boards. It will take a very small layer of wood off, presenting the clean wood underneath this layer. It can then be waxed and buffed to a high gloss which will help increase the value of your home.

When you use the word renovate, it has many definitions. The continuum of this is everything from cleaning with a broom and mop through completely replacing many pieces of wood and everywhere in between. When cleaning, through various processes and procedures will not bring the floor to a sufficient level of the beauty it had when installed, another procedure must be employed.

The broken boards will be identified and new wood will be chosen to fill in the spots. Boards are removed and the new ones are installed with hidden fasteners. The entire floor will then be scrubbed or sanded, depending on a visual inspection. The floor is then coated with a quality wax and buffed to bring out the beauty that was there, to begin with.
