The refinishing process usually takes 3-5 days, depending on the size of the area, the condition of the floors, and whether staining is involved. Full curing for heavy traffic takes about 3-5 days after the final coat.

Most solid hardwood floors, especially red and white oak common in Brock's Victorian and post-war homes, can be refinished multiple times. Engineered hardwood can also be refinished if its wear layer is thick enough.

We utilize advanced dust containment systems during the sanding process to capture nearly all airborne dust. This ensures a much cleaner environment than traditional methods, minimizing disruption to your home.

You can typically walk on your refinished floors in socks after 24 hours. However, it's best to wait 3-5 days before placing furniture back and a full week before heavy use or placing rugs, allowing the finish to fully cure.

Refinishing is almost always the more cost-effective and environmentally friendly option. It preserves the original character of your home, saves you money (CAD $3.50-5/sqft vs $9-14/sqft for replacement), and extends the life of your existing floors.

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the top choice for rural homes where ground moisture is a concern — it's 100% waterproof, durable, and looks beautiful. For above-grade rooms, engineered hardwood with moisture-resistant backing is excellent. We always test subfloor moisture before installation and recommend appropriate vapor barriers.

Many vintage farmhouses have wide-plank pine, oak, or maple floors that can be beautifully restored through professional sanding and finishing. We assess board condition, replace any damaged planks with reclaimed wood matches, and apply durable polyurethane finishes that protect while showcasing the wood's character.

Electric in-floor heating mats work well under tile and stone in rural bathrooms and kitchens. For whole-home radiant heating, hydronic systems using a boiler and PEX tubing are more efficient. Both systems provide comfortable, even heat — especially appreciated in older rural homes where drafty floors are common.
