Our Refinishing Process

1

Assessment & Preparation

We inspect your floors to determine the extent of wear and the best refinishing approach. We prepare the room by removing furniture and protecting surfaces.

2

Professional Sanding

Using industrial-grade sanders, we carefully sand away the old finish, scratches, and imperfections to reveal fresh wood underneath.

3

Staining & Finishing

We apply your chosen stain color (if desired) and multiple coats of premium finish, allowing proper drying time between coats.

4

Final Polish & Cleanup

We perform final polishing and buffing, then thoroughly clean the space and move furniture back to their original positions.
