Questions
Do I need to vacate my home during refinishing?
No, you can remain in your home. We coordinate with your schedule to ensure access to essential areas like bathrooms and bedrooms.
How is dust controlled during sanding?
Our equipment features powerful vacuum systems that capture 99% of dust particles, minimizing cleanup and maintaining indoor air quality.
What preparation is needed for floor refinishing?
Homeowners must remove furniture from work areas. We can assist with this if prearranged during your initial consultation.
Are hardwood floors a good long-term investment?
Yes, while initial costs are higher than alternatives, hardwood floors increase home value and last generations with proper maintenance.
How long does floor finish take to cure?
Water-based finishes dry in 4-6 hours, while oil-based options require 8-12 hours for full curing between coats.
What temperature is required during installation?
Maintain indoor temperatures between 68-72°F with low humidity to ensure proper adhesion and curing of finishes.
