This customer in Preston had originally decided to attempt to sand his living room floor using equipment from his local hire shop. He very quickly found there was a lot more to it than he thought. The sanding belts kept breaking and there was dust everywhere. He then decided to call 1 Stop Floor Care.

The pine floor was sanded to a high quality, dust free finish ready for the application of a coloured hard wax oil.

There is a wealth of information online about DIY floor sanding. A lot of this content goes on about how easy the process is and how spectacular the results can be. This advice can be a little misleading and it is important that you are informed before starting any floor sanding project. The machinery that you use is quite complex. For those using it regularly, it means that it is straightforward to use. For those using it for the first time it can be quite a challenge. There are many mistakes that can cause damage during the sanding process. Some of these include:

  • Not removing sanding dust while completing the process
  • Sanding against the wood grain
  • Not changing the sandpaper often enough
  • Using an incorrect sandpaper grit
  • Pressing down too hard onto the floor
  • Staying in any one spot for too long

Different tools are needed for different steps of the restoration process. If you have any questions or would like to discuss anything, please call 0800 852 7177.
