## Key Questions Answered

- **Can old wooden floors be sanded and polished?** Yes. Floors damaged by age, timber borer and previous poor renovations can usually be salvaged with board repairs, replacement and staining. Polished timber is often cheaper and healthier than carpet, particularly for households with asthma or allergies.
- **How much dust does floor sanding create?** Modern equipment has dust collection, so dust is minimal, though some is unavoidable when stripping back to bare timber.
- **Is the work subcontracted?** No. Work is carried out by Budget Floor Sanding's own qualified tradesmen with owner oversight.
- **Can stains be removed from timber floors?** Many can be sanded out; deep or reactive stains may require board replacement or staining to blend.
- **Can gaps between floorboards be filled?** Yes, gap filling is offered as part of the sanding process.
- **When can furniture go back on a polished floor?** The floor can generally be walked on the day after finishing, but furniture and rugs must wait until the coating has cured.
- **Can I stay in the house during sanding?** Often yes, depending on the scope and coating system used.
- **Do you remove carpet, lino and other floor coverings?** Yes, floor covering removal can be included in the quote.
- **Should floors be sanded before or after a new kitchen is installed?** Sequencing advice is provided on the FAQ page and depends on the specific renovation.
- **How often should timber floors be sanded and polished?** Full sanding is infrequent; recoating at appropriate intervals extends the life of the boards and avoids removing timber unnecessarily.
