What’s Involved in Hardwood Floor Refinishing?
Hardwood floor refinishing takes a few steps. Generally the process begins with floor sanding, which smooths out any unevenness in the hardwood and also buffs out blemishes, scratches, etc. Don’t worry; our professionals won’t sand down your floor any more than is necessary.
This is followed by staining, which not only protects the wood, but gives it that gorgeous, deep, glossy color. Though many people tend to stick with the natural hue of the wood, many types of wood take well to stains that deepen the color to help match your décor.
Just about any solid hardwood floor is thick enough to be sanded and refinished multiple times throughout its lifetime. Some engineered wood floors can be sanded/ refinished as well, but it is best to check with a professional first, as engineered wood floors are not always as thick as their solid wood counterparts. It is not recommended to refinish laminate floors. Read up on tips for caring for your hardwood floors.
What are the Benefits of Hardwood Flooring?
If you want to add resale value to your home, hardwood flooring is definitely the way to go. Unlike carpet or linoleum, hardwood floors are designed to last a lifetime, and are complementary to any décor. . They are also easy to clean and maintain; most of the time all you need to do is regularly sweep and vacuum, and occasional use a hardwood cleaning solution.
Hardwood floors are ideal for maintaining your indoor air quality. Carpets can trap dirt, dust, and other allergens, which contribute to respiratory problems; and if you’re not careful, carpets can even become a breeding ground for mold or other dangerous growths. Hardwood floors, on the other hand, don’t trap dust or dust mites, and do not harbor mold. So if you suffer from allergies or asthma, hardwood floors will be your best bet for breathing easy.
Hardwood floors are also ecologically sound and environmentally friendly, if you can believe it. Nowadays most wood for flooring comes from carefully managed forests, and in the past decade more timber has been added to these forests than has been cut down.
And as for cost, hardwood floors are more economical in the long run than wall-to-wall carpet, as they are easier to maintain, and can last a lifetime with proper care (whereas carpet may last at best a decade before needing to be replaced).
Why Hire the Professionals Over DIY?
Nowadays, it is becoming increasingly popular for homeowners to attempt to replace or refinish their floors on their own. This is usually in an effort to save money, but going with a DIY has many hidden costs that aren’t immediately obvious, like paying for the proper tools, shipping fees for the wood and other products, equipment for removal of old flooring (and installation of the new), and potential repairs in case you make a mistake. Choosing to replace a floor yourself is also a time-consuming process that doesn’t tend to mesh well with a busy life and work schedule.
If you choose to hire a professional floor installation service, you’ll be paying for the materials and the labor, but the job will be finished much faster. Additionally, you can trust the experience of professionals to ensure that your floor gets installed correctly right off the bat, with no unforeseen mistakes or complications.
