Finish Types
Water-based vs oil-based. Which is right?
Water-Based Polyurethane
BEST FOR QUICK TURNOVERS
Dry to walk in 2–3 hours
Low VOC, minimal odor — tenants return sooner
Crystal-clear, stays clear (no yellowing)
Ideal for lighter stains and gray tones
Slightly less durable under heavy traffic
Oil-Based Polyurethane
BEST FOR DURABILITY
Maximum durability under heavy use
Adds warm amber tone that enhances grain
Lower upfront cost per coat
Ideal for dark stains and traditional looks
24–48 hr dry time, stronger odor
The Process
How floor refinishing actually works.
01
Inspection & Quote
We inspect the floor condition, measure square footage, note repairs needed, confirm your finish preference. Fixed quote provided before any work begins.
02
Repairs First
Board replacements, nail pops, squeaks, and gap fills are addressed before sanding. Doing repairs first gives a seamless final result.
03
Sanding — 3 Grits
Drum sanding with progressively finer grits removes all old finish and levels the floor. Edge sanding and hand-scraping corners follows.
04
Staining (if applicable)
Stain is applied evenly and wiped back. We test on a hidden corner for your approval before doing the full floor. Dry time: 4–8 hours.
05
Finish — 2–3 Coats
Multiple coats with light sanding between coats. Walk-on in 2–3 hours (water-based) or 24 hours (oil-based). Full cure in 3–5 days.
