How To Fix A Scratch on Hardwood Floors
2008-08-08 14:23:00 Today's post is an answer from a reader about how to easily repair a scratch on hardwood floors.If you actually live in your home then theres no way to avoid scratching hardwood floors. My wife reminds me daily that we have to live in our house not sit back and admire it. So, kids, pets, parties and life in general cause us to scratch and abuse our beautiful hardwood floors.I've found a very easy method for repairing (masking) those ugly scratches. This method is a temporary fix until the day when you refinish your hardwood floors. Go to the hardware store and buy a couple of Minwax Stain Markers in the two closest colors you can find. These markers have a stain and urethane mixture that you can apply to the scratch to help hide it from plain site.First you'll want to make sure the scratch is clean from dust and debris. Next shake the marker well to mix the stain and urethane well. Apply the stain liberally to the scratch. Now heres the important step: use a clean rag to remove a...
Cherry Floors Darken From Sun Light
2008-08-02 02:33:00 Our new home has Brazilian Cherry floors throughout the first floor. When we chose the Brazilian Cherry flooring a friend of ours warned us that cherry flooring will darken from sun light. If you use area rugs then you will notice the flooring under the carpet remains it's original color while the area of flooring exposed to sun light will darken over time.As you can see in the photo the Brazilian Cherry flooring under our area rug in the breakfast nook is much lighter than the floor that's exposed to direct sun light (I've pulled back the carpet in the photo so you can see the difference). This significant difference in the flooring color has happened in just under two years time.Ultraviolet light from the sun causes the tannins in the Brazilian Cherry floors to darken over time. Most Cherry floors, American, Black, and Brazilian will darken when exposed to ultraviolet light. This problem is most often seen when area or throw rugs are put down to cover the flooring for extended ...

What's so good about Bamboo Hardwood Floors?
2008-05-07 17:24:00 I recently listed a townhome at Rivertrail in Redmond where the owners replaced the carpet on the first floor with bamboo flooring from bamboohardwoods.com Above is a sample of the flooring used, and I am noting some info from the brochure so I have a link to some FAQ's about this "strand woven engineered" bamboo floor. Why Use Bamboo? "Bamboo is harvested and replenished with no impact to the environment. It can be selectively harvested annually and is capable of complete regeneration without the need to replant. Because of its short growth cycle, it can be harvested in 3-5 years vs. 10-100 years for most tree woods." Strength and Durability "The Janka Ball Harness Test measures the force required to drive a 11.28mm steel ball half it's diameter into the wood. The test is a good indicator of resistance to denting as well as its harness for nailing and drilling." From softest to hardest: Fir-Pine-NA Cherry-Walnut-Moso Bamboo-R...

How to Refinish Hardwood Floors
2008-04-17 13:08:00 Several homes, especially centrally located homes, have hardwood flooring. A pristine hardwood floor is beautiful, but to restore one back to its original 60 year old elegance, the floor will need to be refinished. Refinishing hardwood floors can be a challenging job for the do-it-yourselfer, but with some preparation and research, it can be done without the help of a professional. Many older homes have gone through fads, and one that became a norm was wall to wall carpeting. If wood floors hide under a carpet, it will have to be removed. After all furniture has been removed, pull up carpeting and its tack strip, making sure to remove nails and staples that will hinder sanding performance later. Sanding floors during the refinishing process creates a lot of sawdust. Prep the area by taping off doors and cabinets, and opening windows. Covering areas with damp sheets helps trap the sawdust. After the area around the floor is completely prepped, use a drum sander to sand the floor....

Plus forced to scrap top floors - 11 buildings violate height restrictions
2008-04-04 10:58:00 Source: Bangkok Post Plus Property Co, a subsidiary of Sansiri Plc, will remove the top floors at 11 of its Condo One low-rise condominiums to comply with city building limits. Chief executive Mayta Chanchamcharat said the company would also refund down payments to any unsatisfied buyers. The renovation and redesign could cost the company up to 400 million baht. ‘’Since learning that [the buildings’] heights exceed the legal limit late last year, we’ve talked with the authorities and tried to find the best solutions for the buildings, which are in different stages of construction and have different designs, to ensure the least impact on customers,'’ said Mr Mayta. He said the excess height was the result of new designs, which aimed to offer customers more open space at affordable prices. Also to blame was a new post-tension construction system that uses no beams but requires each floor to be five centimetres thick. As a result, the building heights exc...
Going Green For Gorgeous Refinished Floors
2008-04-02 18:54:00 Hardwood floors are beautiful but anyone who has been through a hardwood floor refinishing project knows just how difficult it can be-dusty, toxic and generally unhealthy.

An industry-independent, nonprofit organization, the Greenguard Environmental Institute (GEI) works to improve public health and the quality of life through programs that improve indoor air.

How to clean kitchen floors, with Softscrub
2008-01-31 21:22:00 As a Maid Service in Boston, we run into countless floors that have been neglected for months (maybe even years) on end. Whether the floor is a tile surface or linoleum, they both seem to find a way to trap little bits of dirt and make it very difficult to return the floor to it’s previous glory. In cases like the floor pictured in this post, a simple solution of Pine-Sol and water, or even concentrated Pine-Sol couldn’t do the trick. Instead, it was Softscrub with bleach that was able to extract most of the dirt from this floor. Simply mix 1/4 cup of Softscrub with bleach in a gallon of warm water and got to town with a mop. If this still does not work, then ditch the bucket and go with straight Softscrub and a deck brush. If you’ve never realized that Softscrub could also be used as a floor cleaner, then you’re missing out on a great cleaning method! Below is a list of surfaces (via www.softscrub.com) that you can use softscrub on. (more…)

Caring for Your Hardwood Floors This Winter
2008-01-28 16:23:00 Homeowners with hardwood floors are often concerned about damaging their floors during the winter season. Without proper care, winter's harsh elements -- slush, snow and salt -- can dull the varnish of hardwood floors and even cause warping and gapping. It's almost impossible to avoid winter elements. After all, what would the season be without building a snowman or sledding until you're soaked? Rather than missing out on winter fun, here are a couple of simple steps you can take to protect your floors this winter. Install Floor MatsCatching slush and snow at the door is the best way to avoid damage. It is important to keep these mats as clean and dry as possible. You may even consider investing in an additional mat that you can use while drying the other. If your kids enjoy playing outside, encourage them to remove their wet snow apparel as soon as they come back inside to avoid trekking snow all over the house.Get Creative with Everyday Household Materials Placing a dish-drai...

Bissell 3990 Total Floors Velocity Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner
2008-01-27 16:14:00 Bissell 3990 Total Floors Velocity Bagless Upright Vacuum CleanerDual cyclonic really works. We tried a bissell clearview as our first bagless. It would collect tons of dust and hair around the filter. Yuck, who wants to deal with this. The filter clogged up quickly with a thick coat of gunk, it was hard to remove, hard to clean and generally a mess.Overall I don't see how most single cyclone vacuums are an improvement over bagged vacuums. You end up dealing with too much dust and spend too much time cleaning the vacuum.In comparison, the Bissell 3990 Velocity series is amazing. Vacuum anything, hair, dust, sand, you name it. Amazingly it gets collected in the basket and not on the filter. I've used it heavily over the course of a week, with countless baskets being emptied. The filter has a consistent coloring of dust, but I wouldn't even call it a coating. Its just a little colored. No need to clean it or anything else on the vacuum anytime soon. And when it is time to clean the...

How to Properly Clean Hardwood Floors
2008-01-14 16:48:00 Good care and maintenance of a hardwood floor enhances its life and appearance. Solid hardwood floors can be easily cleaned, and a daily cleaning routine is a must in order to protect the floors from grit and dirt that are most damaging problems. They create scratches, dents and dulling in the smooth finish layer of the flooring. Floor mats help in protecting the smooth layer of flooring by trapping dirt. Do not allow water to collect on the floor, as it can warp. Neutral pH cleansers developed for wood floors should be used for best results. Do not drag furniture over these floors. Felt contacts for legs are a must to avoid scratches on the flooring. A vacuum with a brush attachment is the right choice for cleaning the floor. Exposing the floor to direct sun could cause discoloring. Use drapes, curtains, blinds to block direct sun light. Floors should be swept regularly, and dust mops are recommended for dust. Before deciding on a method of cleaning or maintaining the hardwood floo...
