Now that you’ve identified the type of flooring or stairs you have and taken the necessary steps for preparation, it’s time to begin the reviving and restoring process. Shanks Custom Hardwood Inc. offers a step-by-step guide to get you through this process efficiently and effectively.
Step 1: Clean the area thoroughly with a vacuum and mild detergent, such as soap or vinegar. If a large area is involved, consider renting an industrial-grade machine to complete the task faster.
Step 2: Sand the surfaces until smooth. For this task, you’ll want to use an orbital sander, which is available from Shanks Custom Hardwood Inc.
Step 3: Apply a protective sealant to the surface. Depending on what type of flooring or stairs you have, some different sealants and finishes should be used. Shanks Custom Hardwood can offer advice regarding the best product to use for your particular needs.
Step 4: Wax the flooring or stairs. This will help to protect the surface and give it a glossy, finished look.
Step 5: Buff and polish the area with a soft cloth to bring out its natural luster.
