What Is Hardwood Refinishing?
Hardwood refinishing renews an existing wood floor by preparing the worn surface and applying a new finish system. It is different from simply cleaning the floor because the project changes the surface finish to address accumulated wear, scratches, dullness, or changes in appearance.
The condition and thickness of the existing boards determine what level of refinishing is practical. Work may involve screening, sanding, stain, and protective finish, depending on the floor. Deep damage, loose boards, moisture problems, or previously refinished flooring can change the preparation required.
What's Included in Hardwood Refinishing
Scope depends on square footage, stain color changes, number of finish coats, and how much edge or stair work is included. Common work includes:
- Room prep and protection of adjacent spaces
- Drum and edge sanding through grit sequence
- Stain application when a color change is planned
- Sealer and finish coats with proper dry times
- Light screening between coats when the system requires it
Serve Kei helps you schedule a local refinishing pro for your hardwood rooms. Stain upgrades or stair work can be priced into the quote before sanding starts.
Common Issues
- Traffic lane gray
- Pet nail scratches
- Water white rings
- Prior screen-and-recoat peeling
