The Recoating Process
Recoating is one of the most cost-effective ways to restore shine and protection to your hardwood floors without the expense and disruption of full refinishing.
Deep Cleaning
We thoroughly clean your floors to remove all dirt, oils, and residues that could interfere with the new finish adhesion.
Light Abrasion
We use a screening process (light sanding) to create a textured surface for the new finish to bond properly.
Dust Removal
All dust is thoroughly removed to ensure a clean surface for the new finish application.
Finish Application
We apply a fresh coat of high-quality finish to restore protection and shine to your hardwood floors.
Maintenance Tips for Homeowners
Regular Cleaning
Sweep or vacuum regularly with a soft brush attachment to remove dirt and debris that can scratch your floors.
Proper Mopping
Use a slightly damp (not wet) microfiber mop with a manufacturer-approved hardwood floor cleaner.
Spill Protection
Wipe up spills immediately to prevent water damage and staining of your hardwood floors.
Furniture Protection
Use felt pads under furniture legs and avoid dragging heavy items across your hardwood floors.
Control Humidity
Maintain indoor humidity between 35-55% to prevent wood expansion and contraction that can damage floors.
Use Area Rugs
Place rugs in high-traffic areas and ensure they have non-slip, non-rubber backing that won't trap moisture.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should hardwood floors be recoated?
Typically, hardwood floors benefit from recoating every 3-5 years, depending on foot traffic, maintenance practices, and the quality of the previous finish.
What's the difference between recoating and refinishing?
Recoating adds a new layer of finish without removing the existing finish, while refinishing involves sanding down to bare wood to remove all finish, stains, and surface damage before applying new stain and finish.
How long does a recoating service take?
Most recoating services can be completed in 1-2 days, with light foot traffic possible after 24 hours and full cure in about a week.
Can all hardwood floors be recoated?
Most hardwood floors can be recoated, but floors with wax finishes, significant damage, or certain contaminants may require full refinishing instead. We'll assess your floors to determine the best approach.
