Unfinished Wood Floors Sanding - Why It's
Important
Unfinished wood floors sanding is an important
part of every finishing process. When done
incorrectly, it could cause problems for the
finishing task, leaving behind a less than
desirable design on the surface.
For those who are currently considering improving
their home, the following are some important
details they might need to know.

The Point of Sanding
Sanding is defined as smoothing or polishing a
surface using a manual or mechanical sander.
The roughness of the sander basically strips away
small particle of the wood floors and allowing
the wood underneath to rise to the surface.
Sanding is a process that can be seen when
finishing off tables, chairs, statues and
basically anything made of wood.
The reason behind unfinished wood floors sanding
is simple. It is done to remove all the
imperfections on the floor and pave the way for
an evenly smooth surface.

Why is Sanding Important before Refinishing?
If refinished without sanding, the surface of the
wood will still have the scratches and
imperfections resulting from years of use.
Even the best finishing material will not be able
to hide this. Through sanding, the refinishing
process provides the appearance of a completely
brand new floor.
Another plus for unfinished wood floors sanding
is that it helps remove the dirt and debris that
may be stuck in between the wood.
This is especially true for parquet floors. The
debris coating the surface could compromise the
refinishing process.

Sanding as part of Refinishing
Sanding is traditionally part of the refinishing
process.
Professional refinishing companies would include
the sanding task with applying the coating to the
floor in order to create that perfect finish.
Sanding is a delicate process that requires the
right tools and knowledge for the job. If done
incorrectly, homeowners might sand away an uneven
thickness for the flooring, causing imperfections
on the surface.
