What To Do With Dull Flooring

Keeping your flooring in good shape at home is sometimes a very hard task. With a ton of foot traffic, pets and dirt tracking through, it can sometimes get a bit dirty. Because of this, it’s important to do what you can to keep them clean. But what happens when your floors become a bit dirty and there’s a dullness on the top layer? Of course, we’ve got a few ideas as to how you can improve your flooring when it becomes a bit too dull. Check out a few ideas below!

 
Buff And Polish

Sometimes, all you need is a bit of elbow grease and a buffer to get the floor back to the way it was. By using a polish and buffing the dullness, you can bring the original shine back to your floor with ease. Some older, more weathered floors require a bit more TLC, but this is a great starting point for the common dullness

Refinish Them

If it’s been a decade since the floors have seen a shiny layer, it might be time to strip the original finish, and apply something a bit newer. Over time, they sometimes lose the luster that we all come to know and love. This is a great time to consider changing the color of the stain to better align with your new style idea for the room during a remodel!

Replace The Flooring

If your wood planks have seen better days, it’s a great alternative to consider replacing the floors as a whole. Because you’re thinking about redoing them, the cost effective method for the situation might be to install new planks — depending on how much work is actually needed.

Of course, all of these options will require the right tools to get the job done. To make sure you’re doing so, check out the selection of supplies at Hall Flooring! We’ve got everything you need from simple shining tools to new flooring for the biggest of rooms!
