Service Details

What's Included in Every Refinishing Project

Our Proven Refinishing Process

Protection & Preparation

We protect your walls, doorways, and belongings. We secure loose nails, fill gaps if needed, and prep transitions so everything flows seamlessly.

Multi-Stage Sanding

This is where cheap contractors fail. We use multiple grits—starting aggressive to level the floor, then progressively finer to create that smooth-as-glass feel. Every pass matters.

Detailed Edge & Corner Work

The edges and corners are what separate amateur work from professional results. We hand-sand and detail these areas so the entire floor looks uniform.

Stain Application (If Desired)

Want a color change? We apply 3-4 different stain samples directly on your floor in natural light. You pick the winner. No surprises on installation day.

Protective Finish Coats

We apply 2-3 coats of premium finish (your choice of water-based or oil-based), with light sanding between coats for proper adhesion. This is what makes the difference between a floor that lasts 2 years and one that lasts 20.

Floor Revival

Bring Your Hardwood Floors Back to Life

Remember when your floors looked rich, smooth, and made your home feel expensive? They can look that way again. We remove years of scratches, dullness, and damage—then seal it with a protective finish that makes your floors a showpiece, not an eyesore.

You Won't Believe How Clean We Keep Your Home

Yes, there’s still some dust—it’s unavoidable—but you’ll be shocked how clean your home stays compared to what you’ve heard from friends.
