Sanding the floor to remove the top layer of finish, followed by staining and sealing the wood, is the process of refinishing. The completion of this more involved procedure will take several days. Refinishing hardwood floors entails removing the previous finish and applying a fresh one to the wood. Hardwood floor refinishing has the advantage of typically being possible without removing the old boards, which can be costly and time-consuming.


Resurfacing hardwood floors can lead to a remarkable transformation, not only in their visual appeal but also in their longevity. A variety of finishes can be employed, such as gloss, semi-gloss, matte, and wax-based finishes, which significantly contribute to the overall enhancement of the floors.
