Floor Sanding & Polishing FAQs
Is it economical to refinish timber floors or replace them?
Refinishing is always more economical than full replacement, provided that the existing floorboards are structurally sound and only got surface damage.
Floor repair or replacement is the homeowner’s decision after considering all the aspects. The major factor that can affect this decision is cost. Refinishing is economical if your floors have surface damage and need only sanding and polishing. Floor replacement is for highly damaged or bent floorboards. Timber floor refinishing involves sanding to remove imperfections and polishing to revitalize the floor. It saves labor and time and requires fewer materials to refinish the floors.
On the other hand, floor replacement involves removing all the planks and installing a new floor. Replacement is time-consuming and requires additional materials( polishing and coating agents after the planks are laid and fixed), leading to higher overall costs. Moreover, replacement involves more labor costs and can result in disruption and discomfort to your living space.
How many times you can re-sand and polish a timber floor safely?
It depends on the wood type. Woods like Oak, Maple, and Jarrah have high Janka scale readings, which means these floors have thick veneer and can be sanded five to seven times.
Engineered floors have thin veneer, limiting the number of sanding to two to three times. However, these numbers can vary based on the initial thickness of the wear layer, the professional’s expertise, and the care taken during the process.
It is crucial to consult a flooring company to determine and understand the characteristics of your timber floors.
What signs indicate my timber floor needs sanding vs. polishing?
Signs that indicate the need for floor treatment are surface wear and tear, discoloration, fading and scratches, it needs floor polishing. If you see deep scratches, significant discoloration, uneven areas, or have exposed raw timber then it needs floor sanding.
Floor polishing is the process of rejuvenating wood by eliminating small scratches and color fade. Floor sanding is necessary if issues arise with the floorboards. A patchy or rough surface with uneven areas indicates the need for floor sanding to smooth out imperfections. Stains from spills and discoloration from sunlight are the signs that the process is due.
