FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What Is The Difference Between A Screen & Recoat and a Sand & Refinish?
For floors that are in poor condition or for clients looking to change the color of their floors, we recommend a Sand and Refinish. This process bring the floors down to the bare wood, stripping away the polyurethane and existing stain.
Unlike a Screen and Recoat, sanding is more time-consuming, generates more dust, and is about three to four times the cost. However, it offers a completely fresh surface and allows for a new stain color, providing a total transformation of your floors.
If you’re looking to rejuvenate your floors or change their color entirely, sanding and refinishing is the best option for long-lasting results.
I Do Not Want To Sand & Refinish My Floors. What Else Can I Do?
Screen and Recoat – Refresh Your Floors
If your floors are in good to fair condition with light surface scratches, a Screen and Recoat can be a great solution. This process typically improves the appearance of your floors by 80% or more, giving them a fresh, revived look.
Unlike the more intensive sanding process, a Screen and Recoat is much more economical and can usually be completed in just one day. It’s the ideal option when full sanding isn't necessary or desired but you still want to restore the beauty of your hardwood floors.
What is your Wax Removal Service?
Acrylic Wax Buildup – Why Removal is Necessary
Over time, acrylic wax on your floors will start to show smudges, scratches, and dirt buildup, which diminishes the sheen and leaves your floors looking dull and unattractive. Once this happens, the wax must be chemically removed to restore your floor's beauty.
The removal process involves emulsifying the wax, which turns it into a sticky and messy substance. This requires the use of specialized tools and equipment, and because of the labor-intensive nature of the job, it can be time-consuming. However, it’s an essential step to bring your floors back to life.
