What is renovating a wooden floor ?
Renovating a wooden floor goes beyond simple refinishing — it’s a comprehensive process that restores, repairs, and enhances both the appearance and functionality of your floor. This may involve fixing damage, upgrading the aesthetic, and extending the life of your wood flooring, ensuring it remains beautiful and durable for years to come. This involves using sanding machines such as a Hummel or Bona. Removing approximately 1/3mm of the timber surface and removing all the old lacquers, oils and deep scratches. Renovating a wooden floor is a transformative process that brings new life to your space. It’s not just about refinishing—it’s about restoring the beauty, function, and longevity of your floors.

Why should I have my wooden floor renovated ?
Renovating your wooden floor is a smart investment for both the aesthetics and longevity of your home.
Here are a few compelling reasons why you should consider renovating your wooden floors:
1. Restore Its Beauty
Over time, wooden floors can lose their luster due to wear and tear, scratches, or fading from sunlight. Renovation brings back their natural beauty, making them look fresh and vibrant again.
2. Increase Your Home’s Value
Well-maintained, beautiful wooden floors can significantly boost the value of your home.
If you’re considering selling or simply want to improve your space, a renovated floor can be a major selling point.
3. Extend the Life of Your Floor
Wooden floors are durable, but they can start to show signs of damage or wear.
Renovating allows you to address issues early on, preventing further damage and extending the lifespan of your floor for years to come.
4. Fix Damaged Areas
Whether it’s deep scratches, stains, or water damage, a renovation can fix these issues.
If any boards are warped or cracked, they can be replaced, leaving you with a seamless, perfect surface.

Whether you want to darken or lighten the wood, or add a custom finish, floor renovations offer endless possibilities for customization.
6. Enhance the Overall Ambiance
Newly renovated wooden floors can completely transform the look and feel of a room.
The rich texture and warmth of wood enhance any space, giving it an inviting, timeless charm.
7. Improve Floor Safety
If your floor has become uneven or has gaps, it could become a tripping hazard.
Renovating ensures your floor is level, smooth, and safe for everyday use.
8. Cost-Effective Alternative to Replacement
Renovating is often a more affordable option than completely replacing wooden floors.
With a renovation, you can restore the floor’s beauty and durability without the need for a full overhaul.
By renovating your wooden floors, you’re not only improving the look of your space but also making a long-term investment in your home’s comfort, value, and functionality.
