Refinishing a Hardwood Floor

Some people think refinishing a hardwood floor involves buffing and adding a coat of wax for shine. Our skilled Professionals will go above and beyond these steps. True hardwood refinishing involves sanding down floors to remove any residual stain and old finish. The floors will then be cleaned and finished to your preference; Satin, Semi-gloss or Gloss finishes. Often times the finish we recommend highly is the Satin finish. It protects the floor and delivery a low luster beauty displaying the natural character of the wood.

The type of stain is also important when pricing a hardwood floor restoration. Oil based stains take longer to dry and require more time between coats to complete the process. Water based stains are more expensive, but the completed project will take less time as the wait between stain coats is far shorter.

If a section of carpet is pulled up and no hardwoods are under the carpet, hardwood floor installation can be a great choice for reducing home allergens and dust.
