Floor Sanding Finishing

1. Staining (Optional):

If you desire a specific colour or tone for your floors, staining will be applied by our expert at this stage. Stains can add depth and character to the wood’s appearance.

We apply a wood sealer to create a protective barrier between the wood and the finish coats. Sealing helps prevent moisture infiltration and enhances the adhesion of subsequent finish layers.

3. Applying Finish Coats:

We apply multiple coats of a clear finish, such as polyurethane, are applied to the sanded and sealed floor. Each coat adds depth, protection, and a smooth surface.

We lightly sand between each coat to promote adhesion and achieve a smooth finish. This step is essential for a professional-looking outcome.

4. Buffing (Optional):

Buffing the final coat can enhance the sheen of the finish and create a polished appearance. This step is particularly common for achieving a high-gloss finish.

5. Drying and Curing:

We allow the finish coats to dry and cure according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. This typically involves avoiding foot traffic and heavy objects on the floor for a specified period.

6. Final Inspection:

We inspect the finished floor for any imperfections, unevenness, or missed spots. Touch up any areas that require attention.

7. Reinstall Furniture and Accessories:

Once the finish is fully cured, you can safely reinstall furniture, rugs, and other items in the room.

8. Maintenance and Care:
