Our flooring technicians then begin sanding the floors down to the raw wood (solid natural wood floors projects) or down to the wood layer with engineered wood floors projects to remove any imperfections and existing stains or finishes. Our first priority is to protect the beauty of your home so whether we perform wood floor sanding of previously finished or newly installed unfinished hardwood floors, we section off other areas and install filters to your HVAC returns vents to prevent sanding dust from spreading throughout your home. Our expert technicians also use dustless sanding tools to limit the amount of dust in the air. With refinishing, it is important to have as little air flow as possible due to the airborne particles that can become embedded into the newly applied finish.

Please be aware that some of the old hardwood floors or engineered wood floors might be beyond salvageable with standard refinishing and may in some cases need a complete replacement because they simply do not contain a thick enough wood layer to be safely sanded. Our experts will assess your situation during the consultation process and inform you of the best and most cost effective method to restore your floors.

Our water based finishes are environmentally friendly and also have low VOC's (the gasses and vapors) which makes it the ideal product for anyone with sensitivities to strong odors typically associated with solvents, chemicals or cleaning products.

With proper care, refinished floors should last approximately 10 to 15 or even 25 years before needing to be re-done, high traffic rooms however might need to be re-done more often depending on wear. However you can expect to have beautiful looking floors many more years to come.
