Wooden Floors: Troubleshooting by Centaur International
Wooden floors have
always been extremely popular, so much so, they can actually add value to your
house. If you have wooden floors you�ll know how important it is to look after
them properly, but what should you do when things go wrong? Below are some
common problems you may encounter with wooden floors and suggestions on how to
fix them.
Squeaking floorboards � This is often caused by loose nails. If
the wrong sorts of nails have been used, either remove them and replace them
with proper floorboard nails, or use a larger size of nail Charlotte Olympia

However, make sure you sink the hole so that the screw head is below the surface
of the board, otherwise it poses a safety risk.
Gaps between boards �
This sometimes occurs when central heating has been fitted. The ideal solution
is to lift all the boards and refit them, adding a new board. If you are
planning on partially covering the wooden floor with a rug, then add the new
board in the middle of the room, so that you have less to stain or paint to
match the existing boards Charlotte Olympia Black

Bouncy floors � This can occur either because the boards have
worn thin or because of insect or fungal attacks on the boards or joists. It is
worth lifting one of the boards to investigate.
Shabby boards � If your
boards are in need of some attention you could try the following:
�If the
floor is pine, give it a light sanding. The result will be patchy, but it will
look more aged than if you use a sanding machine to give a perfect
finish
�On new or stripped wood, use a dye. This is better than using a
stain, which does not penetrate the wood
�With hardwoods, apply several
coats of Danish oil, Tung oil or similar
If your wooden floors are beyond
repair, or you just fancy a change, you could always invest in some new solid
hardwood flooring huanghaiyan701 More information please visit: www.charlotteolympiaweb.com.
