Floorboards may look in bad condition as they have never seen the light of day. Plumbers and electricians may have cut through the boards leaving them looking a mess these can easily be fixed by using reclaimed pine floorboards to replaced damaged boards and matched with your existing floor..

Stage 2:
Filling the Gaps Between Boards

Gap filling a floor is an option that many people like since it brings a uniform finish to the floor.  Because of the circulation of cold air brought in through the air bricks; gap filling insulates the your living area  and stops draughts. It also prevents a build up of dirt between floor boards..

Stage 5:
Refinishing Your Floor

Once a floor has been completely sanded it is extremely porous & requires finishing with lacquer (varnish) or oil to protect it. Lacquer is the most practical, attractive & hard wearing, way to finish a floor & necessitates the least maintenance all round.  The quality of the seal that goes onto your floor is perhaps the most important part of the entire sanding process.
