Is refinishing better than replacing hardwood floors?

Refinishing is more affordable and preserves your existing wood. Replacement is only recommended when floors are structurally damaged or have been refinished multiple times.

Does dustless sanding really eliminate dust?

Our dustless sanding system captures over 95% of airborne dust, making refinishing cleaner and safer compared to traditional sanding.

How often should hardwood floors be refinished?

Most hardwood floors should be refinished every 7–10 years. Homes with pets or heavy traffic may need refinishing sooner.

How long does hardwood floor installation take?

Most installations take 1–3 days depending on square footage, prep work, and whether old flooring needs to be removed.

What's the difference between prefinished and unfinished hardwood?

Prefinished floors are factory-coated and faster to install. Unfinished floors are sanded and stained on-site, allowing complete customization of color and finish.
