In my time working in the flooring and floor sanding industry, I have come across many people who say: oh, it’s okay, I’ll hire a floor sanding machine and do it myself, and some who say: why can’t I sand my own floors?
The answer is simple: a potential DIY floor sander has one floor and one chance to sand it. There are no practice runs.
The average hardwood floor costs £500 - £700, no one wants to risk putting a deep groove and ruining a floor, thus it is far better to hire professional floor sanders to do the job.
We have been sanding Scotland’s floors for over 30 years, to us, floor sanding is a carefully orchestrated symphony. We have a dustless sander, that leaves a 100% dust-free smooth finish.
People sand a floor to have it refinished. This is the bit where most people have the professionals in, ironically the professional is less essential at this stage than at the sanding stage.
Yes, re-finishing a floor is very difficult, and a DIYer is much less likely to make the floor as good as new than a professional, but at the same time, any mistakes made during the finishing stages are much less likely to be fatal for a portion of the floor, and they are much more reversible.
