Types of Wood Floor for Refinishing?
One of the most durable types of flooring is hardwood. Heavy foot traffic, spills, and even pet urine (as long as it's
cleaned up right away) won't harm them. Your hardwood floors might, however, begin to look worn or even scratched over
time. We can help with that!
Almost all kinds of wood-based flooring can be repaired, but there are some subtle factors to consider when figuring out
whether your particular type of flooring can be refinished.
Since polyurethane must be applied to all solid hardwood floors, these surfaces are refinishable. This includes exotic
species as well as oak, cherry, and maple. When the flooring isn't traditional or solid hardwood, things get tricky.
Engineered hardwood flooring can be found in many homes.
Engineered hardwood flooring uses a mixture of plywood and solid wood, allowing contractors to repair the surface while
preserving its original appearance. However, once repaired, it cannot be changed into another type of flooring.
On the contrary, because vinyl plank floors aren't made of raw wood and can't withstand renovation to their structures
during restoration because of how brittle these materials may become after touch-ups or renovations during restoration
processes, contractors don't do resurfacing on them.
How to refinish hardwood floors?
In the process of refinishing hardwood floors, the surface of the wood is sanded to remove any scratches or other flaws.
The following steps involve stain application and polyurethane sealing. Your floor will look brand-new and be protected
from further damage as a result.
All of the room's furniture, carpeting, and other decorations must be removed before the hardwood floors can be
refinished. The next step is to sand the wood's surface with coarse grit sandpaper to get rid of any scratches or flaws.
After sanding, make sure the surface is completely dry to remove any dust before applying stain or polyurethane.
