Hardwood floor refinishing in Nepean
Bringing back original oak in Nepean's bungalows and split-levels.
Much of Nepean's housing is bungalows, side-splits and back-splits from the 1950s through the 1980s. Many of them were built with solid oak strip floors that were covered with wall-to-wall carpet a few decades later.
Carpet is a good thing to find floors under. It protects the finish from wear, so what's underneath is often in better shape than you'd expect. Expect some staples and tack strip holes around the edges, and occasionally a pet stain that went through the pad. Tack strip holes are filled; deep pet stains usually mean replacing those boards, because the black mark goes into the wood.
