How long does it take to sand a floor?
If you’re undertaking a DIY project to sand your floor and rejuvenate your old boards, then you need to seriously consider the amount of work that you are undertaking. Sanding floors, especially without the right specialist equipment, is a difficult process to carry out and complete. You may be better cutting your losses and opting to use floor sanding contractors, so here we explore the realities of sanding and treating a wooden floor.
Preparing the floor
Before you even begin sanding, you need to prepare the floor and make sure there is nothing that will destroy your sander. You may need to punch all of the nails deeper into the wood before you begin if they are sitting at the top level and you will need to ensure all carpet staples and anything else have been removed.
Repeated sanding
When sanding a floor, you won’t just sand it once and be done with it. Instead, you will need to sand the floor repeatedly with different levels of grit. The grit of sandpaper is how coarse it is and relates to the parts per cm. When sanding the floor you will need to go over it with increasing levels of grit. The coarser paper will remove all of the varnish, scratches and grime, the less coarse paper will slowly smooth it all out and make it look as good as new.
Hand sanders
Using a hand sander to sand your floor is a false economy because of the sheer amount of time that it will take you to do. You need to use a proper standing sander so that you can quickly and easily cover the area that is needed. Even when doing so you will still need to change the paper regularly and you will use 10’s of sheets of each grit paper in a standard room.
Treating the wood
Once you have sanded the wood and have it ready for the treatment, you should waste no time and should treat it to protect it as soon as possible. You will need to apply up to three coats of treatment to the floor to get the right finish and you will need to wait for a few hours between each coat to ensure that it sets properly.
So how long does it take?
How long it takes will depend on a wide range of factors but an untrained person can expect to take at least 48 hours of work time to sand and treat a wooden floor in a home. For working individuals, this can translate to months of free time spent treating the wood floor so you may be better placed to use floor sanding contractors to get it done.
