Sanding and Refinishing Bamboo Floors: A Step-by-Step Guide

At Floor, we understand the beauty and durability of bamboo flooring. However, over time, bamboo floors can become worn, scratched, or faded, and may require sanding and polishing to restore their original allure. In this guide, we’ll take you through the process we use to revitalise your bamboo floors.

Step 1: Preparation

  • Remove all furniture, rugs, and objects from the room
  • Clean the floors thoroughly to remove dirt and debris

Step 2: Sanding

Bamboo Sealer coatOnce the floors are clean and dry, it’s time to start sanding. We begin with coarse-grit sandpaper, such as 36 or 40, and work up to a finer grit, such as 120 or 150.

Step 3: Staining (Optional)

If you wish to change the color of your bamboo floors, we can apply a stain. We test the stain on a small area first to ensure it achieves the desired colour.

Step 4: Finishing

After the stain has dried (or if you skip staining), we can apply a finish to protect and enhance the floors. Choose from a variety of finishes, including UV-Cured polyurethane, oil-based, or water-based.
