Hardwood Refinishing

Complete hardwood floor refinishing for a 1200 sqft main floor red oak in Richmond Hill, including dustless sanding and three coats of water-based polyurethane.

Challenge

The main challenge involved achieving a perfectly smooth finish on 1200 sqft of red oak without dust contamination in an occupied home. Managing the quick 4-day turnaround was also crucial to minimize disruption.

Solution

We utilized a Bona DCS (Dust Containment System) with industrial-grade vacuums for a truly dustless sanding process. The floors received three coats of Bona Traffic HD commercial-grade water-based polyurethane, known for its superior durability and fast curing properties, applied according to manufacturer's specifications.

Result

The red oak floors were restored to a pristine, natural finish, significantly enhancing the aesthetic and value of the main living space. Homeowners enjoyed a quick project completion within 4 days, allowing them to return to normal life swiftly, and gained an estimated 10-15 years of extended floor life.

“The floors look great, though the final coat had a slightly different sheen than we initially discussed. However, the crew was incredibly efficient, completing the 1200 sqft main floor in just four days, which was a huge relief and kept our disruption to a minimum.”
