Sanded wooden floors and the cold
If you're thinking about removing your carpet and sanding and restoring your wooden floors, you may be wondering whether you'll also need to turn your heating up. Well, we have good news: draughts and wooden floors don't always go hand in hand. Here are our top five tips for enjoying your sanded wooden floors in all seasons:
1. Even the newest, or best laid, wooden floors can shrink in the winter due to them drying out. The more cold air you are bringing in from the outside (ventilation) the less moisture there will be in the air inside. Reduce ventilation or air leaks, such as around the sides of old windows, and you will reduce the 'cracks' in your wooden floor.
2. Instead of reducing ventilation, you can increase moisture in your house instead. Try cleaning, buying more plants, having a party (bring in more people) and cooking frequently. But be careful of adding too much moisture which could lead to condensation and mould in your home.
3. You can purchase rubber 'fillers', such as DraughtEx or StopGap, which can be inserted in the gaps between floorboards to reduce draughts. You can also do this with sawdust and resin/wood glue; however, this can be messy both in process and the finished look. You must also be wary as the resin can shrink in the cold eventually too, which can take you back to square one.
4. If you haven't sanded the wooden floors yet, try thin slivers of pine such as those from the Old Pine Company. Hammer and glue them into the gaps, then sand the whole floor to create an even finish. This is the best way to ensure a draught-free professional look; however, it can be the most expensive method.
5. Buy a rug to avoid having to do any DIY! Not only will it cover larger gaps in the floorboards, it will look great and provide sound insulation too for those below you.
