Frequently Asked Questions

 

How long will it take to complete the job?

A refinishing or basic sanding job usually takes 5-6 days depending on how large or small the area is.

If new wood is being installed, the installation could take about 3 days, depending on the size. Then the wood has to sit and acclimate for a couple of days before the sanding can begin.

Will there be a big mess to clean up? Will there be a lot of dust?

This is a surprisingly clean process considering what the job entails. We use a vacuum system that eliminates 95% of the dust. Plastic is put over doorways and windows and other precautions are to taken to eliminate any other dust.

How do I take care of the floor?

We provide a bottle of cleaner with each job. I will go over cleaning instructions with each customer and answer any questions you may have. General maintenance is minimal. Use a damp mop as needed and once every other week or so use the cleaner to clean the floor.

What do I need to do if the floor gets scratched?

Usually a scuffing with steel wool and a touch up with polyurethane is needed. Some deeper scratches will need sanding to repair.
