Our Refinishing Process

Step 1: Sanding

We sand the floors down to bare wood, removing all old finish, scratches, and discoloration using drum and edge sanders with progressive grits.

Step 2: Repair & Fill

Gaps, nail holes, and minor damage are filled with color-matched wood filler to create a smooth, uniform surface.

Step 3: Stain Application

Choose from dozens of stain colors -- from natural and light blonds to rich dark espresso tones. We'll help you select the perfect shade for your home.

Step 4: Sealing & Finishing

We apply 2-3 coats of premium polyurethane (matte, satin, or gloss) with light sanding between coats for a flawless, durable finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does refinishing take?

Most refinishing projects take 3-5 days from sanding through the final finish coat. The timeline depends on square footage, drying time between coats, and whether repairs are needed.

When can I walk on my floors after refinishing?

You can walk on the floors with socks 24 hours after the final coat. Wait 72 hours before placing area rugs, and 1-2 weeks before moving heavy furniture back.

How often should floors be refinished?

Most hardwood floors should be fully refinished every 7-10 years depending on traffic levels. High-traffic areas may need attention sooner, while lightly used rooms may go longer.

Can I change the stain color when refinishing?

Absolutely! Refinishing is the perfect opportunity to update your stain color. We can go lighter or darker -- completely transforming the look of your home.

Is refinishing cheaper than replacing floors?

Yes -- significantly. Refinishing typically costs a fraction of full floor replacement and can make your floors look completely new. It's one of the best-value home improvements available.
