You’re a big fan of hardwood floor and you want it in every room, that includes the kitchen and the bathroom, but there is a slight problem; hardwood is not naturally water resistant, this means that you need to waterproof your floor. This can be done by T&G Flooring, or you can even do it yourself. A properly finished wooden floor will have some degree of resistance to water, but for real
Preparation of the floor
You will need to prepare your floor by clearing and cleaning the room and repairing any damage. Next, comes the sanding, which is a very important part, and for which you’ll need to invest some time. When you sand wooden floors, always start at the edges of the room, start with rough grit sandpaper and finish with a finer one, then
Apply the chosen product
Make sure to read the label and follow the instructions of your chosen product. In any case, it takes a minimum of 3 layers of whatever product you chose, allowing for each layer to dry thoroughly before applying the next. Also, make sure that there are no bubbles or wrinkles, and sand those you find before you apply the next coat. A natural fabric mop will give you nicer results, and in the end use a brush to have an even, lovely finish. This being said, we strongly encourage you
