Professional timber floor sanding and polishing services are an effective way to rejuvenate tired looking flooring. Timber floors are extremely durable, but regular wear and tear can cause them to lose their original luster. Sanding and polishing is a quick and cost-effective way to restore the natural beauty of your flooring.

During the sanding process, professionals use a commercial sanding machine that starts with coarse 60-80 grit sandpaper to strip away the existing finish and imperfections. Then, they progress through progressively finer grits until they reach a smooth surface.

After sanding, professionals apply a wood floor sealer to protect the resurfaced timber. They also apply a floor polish to give the timber a shiny sheen that will last for years.

The Benefits of Professional Timber Floor Sanding and Polishing Services

The final step in the sanding and polishing process is buffing. Buffing is done by hand or with a machine and it fills in nicks and scuffs to make the timber look lustrous.

Professionals know that it’s important to take time with this step because any gaps or cracks will show through the new finish. In addition to filling these gaps, the pros will also ensure that any color variations between replacement timber floorboards are blended in.

Professionals also know that well-maintained timber floors increase a property’s value. This is because a freshly sanded and polished wooden floor gives the impression that the home has been cared for and is well-maintained. This can lead to a quicker sale for the property and a higher selling price.
