Common Questions
Quick answers to practical questions about wood floor service.
How can I determine if my hardwood floor needs repair or replacement?
Assess damage extent, such as deep cracks or water damage; minor issues often repairable, while extensive damage may require replacement.
What types of materials are suitable for refinishing my existing hardwood floors?
Oil-based or water-based polyurethane finishes are common, providing durability and a smooth appearance suitable for most hardwoods.
How does the condition of my subfloor affect the refinishing or repair process?

What preparation steps are necessary before refinishing or repairing hardwood floors?
Clear furniture and debris, ensure the floor is clean and dry, and sometimes temporarily remove baseboards to allow proper sanding and finishing.
Can existing hardwood floors be refinished multiple times, and how does that impact their lifespan?
Yes, multiple refinishes are possible depending on plank thickness; each refinish can restore appearance but reduces overall lifespan if overdone.
