Flooring

Sure you can refinish your hardwood floors. The task itself isn't a difficult one in the sense of skill required. It's difficult because of the hard work, and patience required. All you do is sand them down and apply your stain finish.

You need a float brush and grout. You want to make sure you have the right kind of grout. For example, you might want a sanded grout for larger grout spaces. Apply the grout with the float at a 45 degree angle, wiping as much off as you go. After it sets, use a sponge to wipe the haze from the tiles.

Laminate flooring doesn't look quite as good as hardwood flooring, but it is less expensive and more durable. It resists stains and fading. It doesn't get nicked or scratched as easily as hardwood.

This is because in wet areas, water seeps down into the cracks that separate the tiles, causing them to warp and bend.
