What is Sanding and Refinishing?

Hardwood floors are an exceedingly popular flooring choice among homeowners due to their durability and timeless aesthetic. However, over time, these floors can become worn, scratched, and discolored. This is where sanding and refinishing come in handy. Sanding involves removing the existing finish and a small amount of the wood itself by using specialized machinery. This process not only smoothes out rough patches, but it also removes stains and shallow scratches. After the sanding process, the refinishing process begins. This process includes filling in gaps, staining the wood, and applying a new finish to restore the shine and protect the wood from future damage. Sanding and refinishing hardwood floors can make a world of difference in the look and feel of your home while also increasing the overall value of your property.

Why do I need to Sand and Refinish my floors?

Hardwood floors, like any other surface, are susceptible to damage and unsightly scratches over time. However, with our professional sanding and refinishing service, we can effectively eliminate deep scratches in the wood and restore your floor to its former glory, leaving it with a brilliant, renewed shine.

Common Questions about Sanding and Refinishing

  • What are the signs that my hardwood floors need sanding and refinishing?

    Signs your hardwood floors need attention include visible scratches, discoloration, dullness, and wear in high-traffic areas. If the wood appears damaged or if the finish has worn away, it's likely time for sanding and refinishing.

  • How often should hardwood floors be sanded and refinished?

    The frequency depends on the amount of foot traffic, the type of wood, and the finish. On average, hardwood floors should be sanded and refinished every 7-10 years. However, floors in high-traffic areas or with pets might need more frequent service.

  • How long does the sanding and refinishing process take?

    The process typically takes 3-5 days, depending on the size of the area and the condition of the floors. We strive to minimize disruption and complete the job as quickly as possible.

  • Will sanding and refinishing create a lot of dust in my home?

    We use dust containment systems during the sanding process to minimize dust. While no process is entirely dust-free, our equipment significantly reduces the amount of airborne dust produced.

  • Can you match the new finish to my existing wood floors?

    Yes, we can customize the stain and finish to closely match your existing floors or provide a completely new look, depending on your preference.

  • Is it possible to live in my home during the sanding and refinishing process?

    While it's possible, we recommend limiting traffic on the floors during the process. Depending on the area being refinished, it might be more comfortable to stay elsewhere during the most disruptive stages of sanding and refinishing.

  • Are the products used in the refinishing process safe for my family and pets?

    We use high-quality, eco-friendly finishes that are safer for both families and pets. We can discuss the options and any associated precautions during the consultation.

  • Do I need to move all my furniture out of the rooms being refinished?

    Yes, the room needs to be entirely clear of furniture and other items. We can provide guidance on the best way to prepare your space for sanding and refinishing.

  • How can I maintain my floors after they've been refinished?

    We will provide you with care instructions tailored to your specific finish. Generally, this involves regular sweeping, occasional damp mopping with a wood floor cleaner, and avoiding harsh chemicals.
