The sanding method with the 7″ Bona Edger

Sand the edges of the room using the Edging Sander fitted with a sanding disc. To operate the Edge Sander, place the lead over your shoulder and tilt the sander on its castors, so that the disc is clear of the floor before you switch the machine on. Prepare yourself to control the sander, switch it on and lower it to make contact with the floor. On contact, move the sander in a sweeping motion and keep it moving the whole time it’s in contact with the floor.

The average person can get two rooms sanded in a day

Finished Floors are hygienic, practical and very stylish , they do not harbour parasites like carpets do and they are virtually maintenance free .Very easy to clean, they do not have funky odours from the previous occupants pets or tobacco, wood is also a great heat conductor, cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Filling gaps is an effective way of eliminating draughts, 98% of houses have air bricks at ground level.

 

There will be a continuous amount of air passing under the house, when you take up the carpet that air will create a vacuum and suck warm air from your room and pass it out the house through the air bricks.

 

Filling gaps stops the warm air leaving the room maintaining the temperature of the room as you remember it was with carpet.

 

Above ground level rooms; this stream of air is not present so it would be purely a decorative reason. Gap filling actually look great on most floors.

This is probably the most asked question we’re hit with – we fill gaps with a mixture of two methods, strips of wood that are glued in to position. This method is with out doubt the best for look and for reliability.

 

We use gap filler for really small gaps where stripes of wood can`t be used and also for fine line repairs in the boards.

Aged pine floorboards have a nice warmth to them, its hard to say as every floor is slightly different, golden brown is common, antique honey pine is also common, you cant tell until you start sanding, the colour depends on the age of the wood and its acclimatisation with oxygen.

 

Block or strip floors are usually oak, beech, ash, maple, cedar, or dark hardwoods mixed together and laid in herringbone patterns or basket weave or in the case of strips length ways.

An average room with floorboards without gaps filled takes a full day. As our varnish is quick drying you can walk on the floor about 8 hours after its last coat, light traffic and ideally wearing just socks.

 

However it takes an extra couple of days for the varnish to fully cure to its peak hardness so we advice this before placing furniture on the floor.

The general rule is the more foot traffic the greater the wear. In a average household of two adults and two children maybe a medium sized dog, it will be the hallways which will receive most traffic in the house.

 

Without a decent entrance mat and without regular cleaning/washing you could expect the floor to last 4-5 years. A bedroom which will receive little traffic will last for years longer.

 

Your floors will last years longer with regular cleaning as the grit from outside of the street wears down the varnish, felt pads on chairs, castors on sofas also help protect your floor.

Our machines are of the latest technology and have excellent dust extraction units.

We recommend masking up the gaps on wardrobes and cupboards, in a hallway, you should put a sheet up around the stairwell to stop dust spreading.
