"As my house approached 50 years of age, the knotty pine living room floor was looking much older. After checking around online, in-person and maybe a do-it-myself, a friend told me of Woodchuckâ  s Flooring in Schenectady - about 40 miles from Summit, NY. Motivated, I measured the floor at about 425 sq. ft. plus a 50 sq. ft. kitchen parquet floor. I called for an estimate and he came out a few days (nights) later. Chuck sized up the room and told me he would sand, some by hand in the tight spots and put down three coats (of something). The above would take three days but a fourth would be needed for the coating to set as well as the odors to dissipate. Checking my calendar, I decided that I needed a four-day mid-week vacation, signed the contract, moved the furniture off the floor, covered the counters and went to Maine (in March of â  23). On day 5, I finally returned to an absolutely beautiful living room and kitchen floor. Really!! Check out the before and after pictures. Iâ  m extremely satisfied!!"

Rental sanders can address moderate surface damage, but their effectiveness depends on scratch depth and overall floor condition. Drum sanders offer the most aggressive removal capability for deeper imperfections. However, if the damage extends into the wood structure or affects large portions of the floor, board replacement by an expert might be necessary before sanding. Consult a flooring professional for help.
Always thoroughly review the manufacturer's operating instructions before starting. Wear appropriate safety gear, including goggles to protect your eyes and a respirator to prevent inhalation of dust. Inspect electrical components before each use to prevent shock hazards. Keep children and pets away from the work area, and maintain a clean space by frequently vacuuming dust accumulation to prevent slipping and to ensure you can see well.
Sandpaper requirements depend on floor size, condition, and the sanding approach. Plan to use multiple grit levels (coarse, medium, and fine) with at least one to two sheets per 100 square feet for each grit. Floors with significant damage or multiple finish layers will require more coarse-grit sheets. Purchase extra supplies before beginning because running out mid-project can cause visible inconsistencies in the final result.
