Benefits of floor sanding and polishing
As homeowners are striving to achieve a modern and fresh look in their homes, the new is often favoured over the old. However, when it comes to hardwood flooring, you don’t need to dig up and install new panels every year. With the right floor sanding and polishing services, your wooden flooring can look good as new.
Change the look of your flooring.
A hardwood floor that’s sleek, smooth, and free of scratches and staining can significantly boost your property’s value. By sanding and polishing, we strip away the top layers to reveal the new and more attractive appearance of your floor.
Create a safer environment.
Scratches can irritate the sensitive skin of children and pets, while accumulated dirt can aggravate allergies. Floor sanding and polishing creates a healthier environment for everyone.
Improve the lighting of your home
The signs of aging make your hardwood floor dull and dim. With a smoother and more polished appearance, your hardwood floor can beautifully reflect interior lighting and brighten up the space.
Water damage
Water damage can happen from a dripping roof, leaking air conditioner, or flooding. If your floor has been damaged by excessive moisture, it will need a fresh sanding, repair or replacement.
Visible Scratches
Scratches, scuff marks, and other visible damage eventually build up and make your floors look ugly. Professional sanding services can restore your flooring back to its original look.
Discolouration
Even if you maintain your floors properly, discolouration is bound to happen. You will often notice faded floor sections in high-traffic areas.
UV rays can also cause discolouration of floorboards. Lift up one of your rugs and you will immediately see the outline.
Warping
If some sections of the floor do not feel flat under your feet, it may be due to warping. Sometimes your floor will curl up at the edges (cupping) or create a bulge in the middle (crowning). Changes in temperature and moisture are the most common causes of warping. With professional sanding and polishing, however, you can give your old timber floor a much-needed facelift.
