Q: What additional home improvement tasks should I consider undertaking concurrently with shoe molding installation?

• <div><p>Before installing shoe molding, evaluate redoing or refinishing any floors and painting your walls or baseboard before putting on your shoe molding. If you don&rsquo;t already have baseboard trim, you should install that before adding shoe molding. Shoe molding is the final touch. Additionally, a carpenter or other professional that&rsquo;s installing shoe molding might also give you a deal on installing crown molding and replacing other trim if you get them done at the same time.</p></div>

Q: Can an old cement floor be polished?

• <div><p>Yes, you can polish an old cement floor. However, be aware that the first pass with the concrete grinder may reveal a few surprises and imperfections. You may also have to contend with the consequences of previous floor coverings, such as tile or carpet, which can leave a pattern in the concrete. Old concrete is more likely to produce uneven results if you want to use a dye or other coloring.</p></div>

Q: Will buffing remove scratches?

• <div><p>Buffing will only remove scratches at the surface level of your flooring. You may also need to apply hardwood floor wax to restore the wax layer. To remove deeper scratches, you&rsquo;ll need another floor repair method like sanding; however, if you sand the floor, you&rsquo;ll also need to stain and seal it. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to strip and wax floors?

• <div><p>The answer to this question depends on how large the room is and how much experience you have stripping and waxing floors. It will take at least 24 hours to strip the floors, then you must allow time for drying, waxing, waiting for them to cure, and, finally, buffing them. Since you likely will not be working for the full 24 hours, it is safe to say that this is a two- or three-day job.</p></div>
