FLOOR SAND AND SEAL

Why Sand & Seal Your Wooden Floors?

A new floor for your home?

Laminates and carpets have their virtues – but genuine hardwood flooring still outscores these on many points.

Hardwood floors are now being liberated from slumbering under wall-to-wall carpeting. A new floor is not cheap: at £80-£130 per square metre (installed), wood flooring is more expensive than carpeting or laminates that offer – on the surface at least – a similar look.

A well-maintained floor will retain its value and can prove a worthwhile investment. Worn carpets could lower the perceived value. If you do have old carpets shrouding the potential of your floor, why not consider the modest cost of sanding and restoration? And forget about the expense of a new carpet.

Discover The Advantages of Wood Floors

Durability

When looked after, a wooden floor is a durable asset that lasts for decades. Indeed, some floors are still thriving after hundreds of years.
When constructed from sustainable sources of timber, a wooden floor is the most natural and environmentally sound of all floor types. It is easy to repair and may be restored for a fresh new look. Compare this to old carpets and laminates which have to be thrown away.
Some scratches and minor damage are inevitable. Over the years, these are a reflection of good service: they add character to a floor and become part of its charm.

Warm and Cosy

Hardwood floors not only look inviting but feel warm and comfortable under foot: Laminates tend to feel cold and a little ‘plastic’. Wood is an excellent insulator, with its thousands of tiny air chambers per cubic inch holding in heat.

Super Hygienic

Wood is the most hygienic of all floor types. Unlike carpets, its surface holds no refuge for mold and mildew – let alone dust mites which die from exposure to the air.
Allergies are a growing concern among children – with pollen, dust, and animal hairs all being implicated. It is easy to ensure a wooden floor is free of these potentially health-denying substances.

Easy To Clean

Nothing could be simpler: sweeping and mopping with warm water (and occasionally special floor cleaners) and your wooden floor will stay as good as new. No expensive carpet cleaning and wet carpets to Non-Toxic Products dry.

Increase Home Value

A wooden floor always impresses and is a great asset when selling a property. Estate agent’s surveys constantly confirm this – as do TV makeover programs.

A well-maintained floor will retain its value and can prove a worthwhile investment. Worn carpets could lower the perceived value.  If you do have old carpets shrouding the potential of your floor, why not consider the modest cost of sanding and restoration?  And forget about the expense of a new carpet.

The main virtue is the one that has kept wood the top floor choice for centuries: they look so good – impressing your visitors and giving a sense of authenticity and worth to your home.  And you can’t put a price on that.

FAQ

Wood Floor Sanding & Sealing FAQs

Can old wood floors be effectively sealed?
Yes, old wood floors can be effectively sealed. The key is to properly prepare the surface by cleaning and repairing any damages before applying the sealant. This helps in achieving a long-lasting and effective seal.
How long does the sealing process for old wood floors typically take?
The duration of the sealing process for old wood floors can vary depending on factors such as the size of the area, the condition of the floor, and the type of sealant used. Generally, it can take anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days to complete the sealing process.
Can you seal hardwood floors without sanding?
Yes, it is possible to seal hardwood floors without sanding, especially if the floors are in good condition and the existing finish is intact. In such cases, a professional can apply a new coat of sealant directly on top of the existing finish, providing protection and enhancing the appearance of the floors.
Can I walk on the floors immediately after they are sealed?
It is generally recommended to wait for the sealant to dry completely before walking on the floors. The drying time can vary depending on the type of sealant used, but it is typically advised to avoid walking on the floors for at least 24 to 48 hours to ensure the sealant has fully cured.
Can sealed wood floors be damaged by water or moisture?
Sealed wood floors provide a protective barrier against water and moisture, reducing the risk of damage. However, it is important to wipe up any spills or excess water promptly to prevent prolonged exposure. While sealed wood floors are more resistant to moisture, it is still advisable to take precautions and use protective mats or rugs in areas prone to water exposure.
