If your hardwood floors have not aged well, or suffered excessive scratching, fading, water damage, or other issues, then it may be time to refinish and stain them. Below, we answer some frequently asked questions regarding hardwood refinishing. If it’s time to get your floors refinished at your home or business in Seattle or the surrounding areas, give Magic Hardwood a call.
What is Hardwood Floor Refinishing?
Refinishing starts with sanding down the topmost layer of the floor to remove scuff marks, minor damage, and discoloration. Then a fresh coat of stain and lacquer are applied to get the floor looking as good as new! Refinishing can be done on your own, but you will get the best results by having them professionally refinished.
Can I Change the Color of My Floors?
This depends on how far down the floors are refinished. If the refinishing only requires removing the top layer of wood, the rest of the wood will be visible and the color will need to stay the same. If you choose to have the floors refinished down to the wood, you can go lighter, darker, or choose an entirely different finish shade.
What Do I Need To Do During the Refinishing Process?
Before a professional team can start the refinishing, all objects and furniture will need to be moved to another area. Once the process is complete, you will most likely be able to walk on the floors in socks after two days. You may have to wait up to a week to wear shoes on the floor or move any furniture back. Wait at least four weeks to place any area rugs on the floor, and use a quality hardwood floor pad as a barrier between the floor and the rug.
