  • A compilation of wood floor refinishing FAILS by UA-camrs, complete with critical, yet bumbling non-sensical commentary!
    I give my thoughts on sanding floors with orbital sanders or finishing sanders, as well as sanding wood floors by hand with a palm sander or handheld belt hand sander.
    Please look out for bad advice on UA-cam, from people telling you how to sand and refinish your hardwood floors having only done it once themselves. Click around and watch as much as you can and absorb as much as possible. Obviously, I recommend my videos ;)

    And the one thing everyone seems to forget when refinishing their floors:

    How about a video showing the pros doing the amazing stuff that are not getting views on their own channels?

    Though I fully agree with your criticism, it would be helpful, as a professional, to impart a solution.

    My house is 200+ years old. All of the dings,dents and other marks tell the story of the people that lived here before I did. Thanks to the local historical society I know who built the house and that it was once a sheep farm,an apple orchard and a B & B. I smile when I walk up the old narrow stairs-you can see the worn path all those feet took climbing up to go to bed! I ❤️ and cherish every ding,dent,out-of-square doorway and wobbly window in the old place. I’ll take old and lived in any day over brand new and perfectly level...it’s weathered centuries and kept its inhabitants safe and warm...🏡

    maybe a professional video editor will use this video to talk about bad green screen attempts. :)

    I have to leave a comment. I have been installing and sanding floors for 20 years in America. I have never looked up doing floors because I do it everyday. The guy talking for the video knows what he is talking about. I haven’t watched any other videos by him but you should listen to his advise. Everything I heard him say sounded correct to me

    You're the Simon Cowell of wood floor refinishing.

    This video helped me immensely this weekend! I refinished my 70 yr old hardwood floors, and it looks amazing! The one bit about going a little deeper to get to the low spots gave me confidence. I felt it was just eating way to deep but I got everything level. No low spots or dents! Wife is ecstatic 👍🏻

    I can literally watch a video about ANYTHING as long as it's someone pointing out what someone else did wrong

    I have 20+ years of carpentry under my belt and finishing floors is no joke. I leave it to the floor guys because they have the experience do it right the first time. Great video, well done

    Pointing out the errors of someone's methods and techniques may seem petty to most but I find great value in it. You can learn a lot from someones mistakes!

    Lmaoooooo I’ve been doing hardwood floors for almost 5 years & even when I first started I’ve never done any of these things smh . Great video made me feel better about my work lol

    Don't sell yourself short. You are a great presenter. Thank you for the insights for us DIYers.

    Thanks-this was just what I needed to see! I’m about to sand my first floor, and it’s just as important to know how to do it right, and wrong, and to know what wrong looks like. This video is a real warning to learn what you’re doing before you start. As much as you can without having actually done this before.
