Three hardwood refinishing questions


Hardwood floor refinishing is one of the things that gives these floors a long lifespan. It erases years of wear and damage to leave beautiful results.

Wood floors
also perform better once refinished as well. But we know you have some questions, so consider these as you begin to shop for services.

1. How do I know if my floors need hardwood floor refinishing?


Sometimes, the need is obvious, especially with lots of wear or damage. Missing finish, discoloration, or extreme wear are good signs that refinishing is necessary.

If you're unsure, we can assess the situation to see if wood floor refinishing is necessary. We will consider all the elements to see what your floors need.

2. How long does the hardwood refinishing process take?


There is no single answer to this question, as needs differ from homeowner to homeowner. However, the service can generally take two to seven days, especially if adding color.

If repairs are necessary, it could take a bit longer. However, subfloor and floor repairs will be done before refinishing for great results.

3. What does the service include?


Hardwood floor refinishing starts with sanding to remove all the affected layers of flooring. After sanding floors, we will apply a stain color, finish, and sealant.

Once the service is complete, you can walk on the floors in socks after 24 hours. But wait at least 48 hours before returning furniture, and longer if the pieces are heavy.
