Sometime our hardwood floors take a great deal of abuse and high traffic or perhaps a messy pooch. It may be necessary to take things in hand and decide to refinish the hardwood floor. I have undertaken some pretty challenging floor projects and the outcome is nothing short of outstanding. In these photos you can see the status of the floor before starting and the results after a good sanding. I take the time to do a thorough cleaning so no particulates are left behind. I typically use an oil based clear stain with a light honey transparency to it and allow it to cure before adding the top clear coat to it for a rich beautiful shine.
