What is actually involved in the average sanding and refinishing job?
To be honest in our experience there really isn’t such a thing as an “average” sanding and refinishing job. We see floors that are just a little scuffed and nicked to those that have deep scratches and haven’t had a good cleaning in years, yet almost all of them can be rescued and renovated. Sanding a hardwood floor usually involves utilizing a professional sander to strip the wood back to its “raw” state to remove all the imperfections that have appeared over time. The floor is then refinished with several coats of polyurethane and in many cases stained before we do that. The end result is a hardwood floor that looks like it was laid only yesterday.
