Engineered & Solid Hardwood Floor Refinishing

Refinishing hardwood floors is a great way to make old and damaged wood look new again. It can fix deep scratches, chips, dents, stains, and worn areas. Hardwood refinishing works on solid, engineered, and parquet floors. We use water-based finishes and stains that dry quickly and have no smell. Oil-based finishes are also an option.

Pros & Cons of Hardwood Refinishing

First, this method helps remove dents, scratches, and other damage by taking off some of the top layer of your wood floors. Hardwood sanding also lets you change the color by staining the wood, with many stain options available.

The downside of hardwood refinishing is it removes about 0.5 – 1.5 mm of the top layer each time. This means it can only be done a few times, as specified by the hardwood details.

Sandless Wood Floor Refinishing (Buffing & Polishing)

Sandless Hardwood Refinishing is perfect for wood floors in good condition that just need a little refresh. This process lightly sands the floor with a machine and uses an etching chemical on the surface. Minor damages are fixed before adding a new finish. This is also called hardwood buffing or polishing.

This method is medium effort, faster, and cheaper than traditional sanding refinishing. It doesn’t remove much of the hardwood’s top layer, but it isn’t completely dust-free, so some dust may settle in your home. Sandless refinishing won’t get rid of deep scratches or dents and can’t change the floor’s color.

Wood Floor Refinishing & Restoration Via Deep Cleaning & Recoat

This method safely cleans old wood floors without heavy sanding or losing any wood.

Hardwood recoating gives similar results to traditional refinishing without removing wood. You can choose finishes like matte, satin, or gloss. Plus, there’s no dust. However, Hardwood Recoating works best for floors in good condition with minimal damage.

Many hardwood floor owners use recoating every few years to extend the floor’s protective layer and delay refinishing. While most floors can be refinished several times, recoating is great preventative care and can save money over time.
