Hardwood Floor Refinishing

Wood flooring has always been well loved by homeowners for bringing a warm rich feel to their rooms. Wood floors truly are an asset simply for enhancing the beauty and value of a home. When first installed, they are beautifully finished with a protective coating. This protective finish can last years with the proper maintenance. But just like most things in life, in time that coating begins to wear down. When this wearing begins to happen, your floors become subject to much damage. It is then time to consider applying a new fresh finish to your floors.

It is a good idea to test your floors first before deciding to refinish. You can do this by pouring a small amount of water on your floor and examining the effects it has. If you notice your floors being absorbent and forming a stain, it is most likely time to refinish your floors.

There are several different protective finishes to choose from. The job of a protective sealer is to guard the floor from moisture damage and other problems that may lead to the surface becoming rough. The most common protective finishes include; polyurethane, varnish, and shellac. Finishes can come in a high gloss or low gloss.

Staining your wood floors is optional, depending on what color you most desire. Often people enjoy the natural appeal of finished wood. However, you can choose to stain your wood floor thus creating a unique shade. Stain options vary from natural shades, to light medium and dark shades, and even custom colors. It is probably a good idea to check out other rooms and compare shades and colors. Also, consider testing a small area first, before applying the stain all over.
