Common Questions
Quick answers to practical questions about wood floor service.
How can I determine if my hardwood floor needs repair or replacement?
If deep gouges, water damage, or loose planks are present, repair is suitable; extensive damage may require replacing damaged sections or the entire floor.
What materials are best for refinishing my existing hardwood floor?
Hardwood floors can be refinished with oil-based or water-based finishes, with oil-based providing durability and water-based offering faster drying and less odor.
How does the condition of my subfloor affect the repair or refinishing process?
A stable, level subfloor ensures proper adhesion and finish, while uneven or damaged subfloors may require leveling or repair before refinishing or installation.
What preparation is needed before hardwood floor refinishing or repair?
Clear the area of furniture, ensure proper ventilation, and address any moisture issues to facilitate safe, effective surface preparation and finishing.
Can existing hardwood floors be repaired if they have water damage or deep scratches?
Yes, surface repairs like sanding or filling can restore appearance, but severe water damage or structural issues may necessitate plank replacement.
