Explore our commercial floor sanding process, designed to restore your business’s floors to their former glory.
Imagine a building with a beautifully restored commercial wooden floor; the picture that we create is one of warmth, sophistication and elegance. The hidden facts behind restoring wood floors are, however, more complex but the results achieved are nothing short of spectacular.
It is a fact that wood flooring throughout commercial premises is not only great to look at but also functional. If they are restored correctly, they will age well and last a lifetime.
We’ve been busy helping businesses all over Yorkshire, from Chapeltown to Wakefield and Ossett to Rotherham. And it’s not just the small towns. We’ve been all over the big cities like Sheffield, Leeds, Manchester, and Derby too. It doesn’t matter where you are – whether you’re running a cosy restaurant in Huddersfield or managing a bustling hotel in York. Our expert floor sanding services are just what you need to keep your place looking outstanding.
Floor sanding steps: what is the process of gaining the perfectly restored commercial wood floor?
Step 1) The area that you are restoring needs to be cleared of furniture, window treatments and anything that could be damaged through the sanding process. Not only will this leave your cared for valuables safe, but it will vastly speed up the steps to sanding hardwood floors.
Step 2) Repairs to the floorboards need to be completed. Loose boards need to be nailed down. Some nails, over time, protrude; these need to be hammered back into the wood boards so that the nail head is level with the floorboard.
Step 3) The entire floor will require sanding. This process can be arduous and time-consuming but time taken to approach the job correctly will pay dividends with the results. To begin the process you will need to start in a corner of your room and work up and down in rows with a Drum Sander. It is imperative that you keep the machine moving constantly and that the sanding is completed with the grain of the wood.
Step 4) Sand with the Edger; sand around the perimeter of the room where the drum sander could not reach. · Suggested revision: This machine is notoriously difficult to control, so it should be handled with caution. Move it in a side-to-side motion so the sanding disc is barely touching the floor.
Step 5) Repeat the sanding process with the drum sander and edger with medium and fine grit sanding paper.
Step 6) Fill any holes with latex wood filler using a putty knife. It should be applied generously and smoothed over any holes or scratches.
Step 7) Stain your floor; this step is optional and is completed prior to the finishing process. Natural wood is a statement in itself, but staining is required when looking to achieve a lighter or darker finish.
Step 8) Finish your floor; these are available in matte, satin, semi-gloss and high gloss options. The best tip for this process is to complete the area around the doorway last and begin at the furthest spot from the door.
