Floor Refinishing Services Melbourne
Floors can get damaged quite quickly. They do take a lot of wear and tear and hence it’s normal they begin to look scuffed. Damaged floorboards can be a real hazard and shouldn’t be taken lightly. Leaving a damaged floorboard can lead to further damage since the damaged board means that the structural integrity of the floor is compromised. By neglecting to fix this it means the problem could get worse and the whole floor could need replacing. By getting to the problem early, the process of fixing the floor could be completed with a gap filling or the replacement of just the floorboard. Loose or squeaky boards are a sign that repairs should be done as well as any detection of the presence of termites.
Floors without actual structural damage can also need work done. Recoating is a popular process to bring out the features and textures of the floor. It is simply the application of a new topcoat to the existing topcoat. Floor staining is done when the colour of the floor needs to be changed. The original colour may decay after years of usage and may need to be updated. If the floor is structurally sound and the type of floor is not a problem, changing only the appearance can be a great way to have a new look for the floor. This is an excellent option for having a new look without incurring the greater cost of changing the entire floor. Floor sanding is a process that is necessary when the texture of the floor becomes damaged. Floors are sometimes subject to heavy usage. Large pieces of equipment being moved can scrape the floor and cause digs and cuts. Sanding is needed so that the floor boards can revert to their intended texture and appearance. It is also a critical step before polishing. Having sanding done allows the floor to be smooth so giving both a look and feel that speaks of quality. Sanding is one of the more technical aspects of the flooring services since it is much easier to complete with specialized equipment and requires a bit of experience to do correctly. |

As said before, sanding can be the precursor to polishing. Polishing is a service that adds shine to the wooden floor. This allows the surface to have a sheen that really catches the eye. Floor Polishing combined with buffering afterwards gives a lustre that give the floors a classic and well-presented look. Regular usage of floors, even without any damage to the structure or the evenness of the floor can still cause the floor to look duller. A duller floor will seem of low quality and should be considered as a case for needing a bit of a top up. But with a colour that doesn’t require a change and no problems with the structure, it would be illogical to change the whole floor. This is why polishing is a great choice to change not the floor but the appearance of the floor.
