Hardwood flooring is considered as one of the most durable and fashionable type of flooring that you can acquire for your household. Contractors have numerous ways to help you if you plan to refinish hardwood floors. In this article, you will discover some of the methods that the contractors perform to help you in refinishing your household flooring.
Initially, the contractors have to make sure that they will prepare the necessary materials for refinishing the wood floors. This is important so you can guarantee the safety of the people who will be walking on those floors every day. The refinishing specialists that will do the work for you will make sure that they have all the necessary tools and materials ready for the task. However, this does not mean that you have to completely take the backseat when the team is about to do their job. On the contrary, you may need to provide some assistance by preparing your own set of available tools and materials.
Depending on the specific type of work that will be needed to refinish hardwood floors, the team may hire a sander to join the group. The sander is responsible in making sure that the floor surface concerned is adequately prepared for the finer and relatively more complicated steps. As the term implies, the sander is mainly responsible for stripping off the paint from the surface of the floor. If layers of wood varnish are present on the surface, the sander is also responsible for clearing the surface of those as well.
After the initial sanding process, the contractors will have to work on the scratches that the previous step has left on the surface. For this process, the sanders typically use the tools with medium grain on them. This will ensure that the surface will end up smooth. Most of the sanders end their work at this point. However, if the flooring initially obtained more damage on the surface than expected, the contractors may resort to additional sanding work for the floor.
Most of the refinishing will be spent on the sanding process. On average, this takes around two to three days to finish. The rest of the time will be allotted for the finishing touches. The finishing touches will require the contractors to clear the area of the debris produced by the sanding. At this point, the contractors will apply the wood varnish on the surface and spread it thinly on the entire surface. They will proceed in applying another layer of protective substance on the entire surface. This will ensure that the flooring will maintain its integrity for longer periods of time. The rest of the time will be spent on drying.
These are just some of the procedures that the contractors perform so you can eventually enjoy the results of their work to refinish hardwood floors. Most of these procedures should be performed by professionals to ensure that you can make the flooring last for longer periods. Attempting to duplicate these methods can result in faster deterioration for the hardwood flooring.
