What clients expect and what professionals need to know
Hardwood floor refinishing uses a drum sander with 36, 60, 80, and 100-grit sandpaper to remove the existing finish and level cupped or scratched boards, followed by edger sanding and hand scraping in corners, then stain application and 3 coats of waterborne or oil-based polyurethane with 220-grit screening between coats. Hardwood can be refinished multiple times as long as at least 3/32 inch of wood remains above the tongue — typically 5–8 refinishes over the floor's life.

Common questions from clients looking for Hardwood Floor Refinishing services
Solid hardwood (3/4-inch thick) can be refinished 5–8 times over its lifespan as long as 3/32 inch of wood remains above the tongue. Engineered hardwood can be refinished 1–2 times depending on the veneer thickness.
Oil-based polyurethane imparts an amber tone and is harder but takes 24 hours between coats; waterborne is nearly clear, dries in 2–3 hours, and has low VOC — most refinishers now prefer waterborne.
A 500 sq ft room takes 2–3 days: day 1 sanding and stain, days 2–3 for 3 coats of finish drying. The house must be vacated for 24 hours after the final coat.
Yes — sanding removes the existing color completely; any stain color can be applied on bare wood. Going lighter is possible; going darker is always achievable.
Sweep or dust mop daily; use a well-wrung damp mop with pH-neutral cleaner weekly; apply furniture pads; avoid high heels and pet nails; recoat (screen and recoat) every 3–5 years before the finish wears through to wood.
