Refinishing & Staining Hardwood Floors

Over the years, it’s inevitable that your hardwood floors will experience natural wear and tear. They may start to lose their shine and accumulate scratches or chips, making them look dull and old. If this is the case, that doesn’t mean you need entirely new flooring. Staining or refinishing your floors is the perfect solution! Each process can restore them to their original beauty. Although it can be tempting to save money and make it a DIY project, remember that your hardwood floors are an investment, and it’s worth knowing that the project will get done right the first time. After all, hardwood floors can only be refinished a certain amount of times throughout their lifespan. Central Mass Hardwood provides professional refinishing and staining services.

Refinishing

There are a few different steps in the refinishing process. First, we’ll provide professional dust-free sanding to remove any existing finishes on the hardwood floor. Next, we’ll apply 3 to 4 coats of oil or water-based polyurethane. Finally, we’ll buff your floor clean to make your once old-looking floor brand new!

Screen & Recoating

We also offer a screen & recoating for hardwood floors. This process simply involves removing the top layer of the finish and applying a new coat to revitalize your floor.  This is for minor scratches/wear & tear at the surface level. 

Staining

Staining begins with the same process as refinishing.  We will first provide dust-free sanding to remove old layers of polyurethane and to smooth your floor. Next, we will apply a coat of stain of your choice! You can choose to stay with your original stain or try something new. Check out some of our most popular stains for ideas!
