Staining and Finishing

To stain a floor it is first important to remove th old finish and stain. The way to do this is to sand the floor. In most cases if the old floor has not been sanded before it is not a problem. A floor can only be sanded a certain number of times since each such job makes the floor thinner. Once the floor is sanded it is ready to be stained and finished. In most cases the entire job takes 3 to 4 days since each coat needs about one day to dry and be ready for the next coat. The floor can be sanded and stained on the first day and at least two coats ofa finish of your choice need to be applied in day two and three. In most cases floor refinishing is done when tenants are away from home or before they move in.

Sanding

Sanding is usually the first step in refinishing a hardwood floor because the old finish and stain need to be removed. Even though we use top of the line equipment there is always dust present during this phase. If sanding is done in a home that is occupied it is important to seal all other rooms of the house to prevent dust from entering. Our service professionals make sure everything is sealed and protected before starting a job.

Repairs

Repairs on a hardwood floor range from fixing simple superficial nicks and scratches to fully replacing floor boards. We provide all types of repair services. Most repairs do not take more than a day but it is often needed to match the stain and finish on board replacements. Each repair job is very unique so it is impossible to know the duration of the job without physical inspection.
