What Is Hardwood Floor Refinishing?

Your hardwood floors probably have a surface coating on them currently. It may be severely worn off, but it’s there. Hardwood floor refinishing is the process of removing all the current coatings from the floor to get to the bare wood beneath. At that point, a new coating and stain can be applied to the newly sanded floor. Once the finish has properly dried, you are free to utilize the space. Our floor refinishing process changes from floor to floor and can be uniquely tailored to fit the species’ individual needs as well as your desires for a new look.

Our Floor Refinishing Process

The biggest interior design statement can be made by simply getting your hardwood floors refinished. It is the first thing people see when they walk in your home. It sets the mood. What better way to start a new conversation, than talking about how beautiful your floors are! Here is a detailed understanding of the process.

Once your home has been evaluated and we’ve determined what your needs entail, we can begin.

  • We will arrive at your home the morning of the first day. During that time, we will go over the scope of work, and make sure all of your expectations are met.

  • We will begin setting up our specialized sanding equipment, and get the project going.

Our Sanding Equipment is hooked up to vacuums designed to keep your home free of dust during the entire project. The normal dust that accrues while refinishing a floor can be avoided by utilizing a commercial vacuum system so the debris does not pollute the air of your home.

  • We will begin sanding your floors to create a clean canvas. “Art is not just for walls.’ This sanding process could take as little as one day, and extend up to several days, depending on the size of your project.

  • Once the floor has met our standards for being flat and defect free, we will begin the process of staining and finishing the surface. This typically happens over the course of a few days, as multiple coats will normally need to be applied.

  • After the floor is finished, we will do a walk-through to ensure that you are completely satisfied. You may then return to your beautiful home, with elegant wood floors that are restored to their previous grandeur.
