The sand-and-refinish process

A refinished floor is only as good as the prep beneath it. Here is how a full refinish runs.

  1. Assessment. We check board condition, existing finish, and how much wood is left to sand. You get a written quote.
  2. Dust-controlled sanding. We sand off the old finish with dust-controlled equipment, working through coarser to finer grits for a smooth, even surface. Dust containment keeps the mess down and your home cleaner.
  3. Edging and detail. We sand the edges, corners, and tight spots the drum sander cannot reach.
  4. Staining. If you are changing colour, we apply your chosen stain and let it set.
  5. Sealing. We finish with coats of polyurethane, sanding lightly between coats for a smooth, durable result.
  6. Dry and cure. The floor dries before you walk on it and cures fully over the following days.

Proper sanding and clean coats are what separate a floor that looks new from one that shows every swirl and lap mark.

Recoat vs full refinish

Not every floor needs a full sand. Matching the job to the floor saves you time and money.

  • Buff and recoat (screen and recoat). We lightly abrade the existing finish and lay a fresh coat of polyurethane on top. This suits floors that are dull or lightly scuffed but not worn through to bare wood. It is faster, cheaper, and less disruptive than a full refinish.
  • Full refinish. We sand back to bare wood, then stain and seal. This is for floors with deep scratches, grey or worn areas, water marks, or a colour change. It is the only option once the finish has failed down to the wood.

A buff-and-recoat every few years can delay a full refinish for a long time. We will tell you honestly which one your floor needs at the assessment.

Stain colours and finish types

Refinishing is your chance to reset the colour and sheen of your floors.

Stain runs from light naturals through warm mid-tones to deep, dark browns and near-black. We test your chosen stain on your actual floor first, since the same colour reads differently on oak than on maple.

For the finish coat, you have two main choices:

  • Oil-based polyurethane. Durable, with a warm amber tone that deepens over time. Longer dry times.
  • Water-based polyurethane. Clear, low-odour, and fast-drying, so it holds the wood's natural colour and gets you back on the floor sooner.

Sheen ranges from matte through satin and semi-gloss to full gloss. Matte and satin hide everyday scuffs and dust better, which is why most homeowners choose them.

Board repairs before refinishing

Refinishing is the right moment to fix the wood, not just the finish. Before we sand, we address damaged boards, deep gouges, loose planks, and squeaks. We can replace individual boards and blend them into the surrounding floor so the repair disappears under the new finish. Catching these first means you refinish over a sound floor.

Can engineered hardwood be refinished?

Sometimes, but not always. Engineered hardwood has a thin real-wood veneer over a stable core, so it can only be sanded if that veneer is thick enough – usually once, if at all. A thin-veneer floor risks sanding through to the core. We assess the wear layer before recommending a sand, and a buff-and-recoat is often the safer route. If you are weighing a new engineered floor instead, see our engineered hardwood installation page.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the floor take to dry?

Water-based finishes dry fastest, often walkable within hours. Oil-based finishes take longer. Either way, the floor needs several days to cure fully before rugs and heavy furniture go back.

Can we stay home during refinishing?

You can usually stay, but expect noise, odour, and rooms that are off-limits while they dry. Water-based finishes have less odour if that is a concern. We will map out which areas are usable each day.

How often should hardwood be refinished?

A full refinish is typically needed every couple of decades, depending on traffic and wear. A buff-and-recoat every few years stretches the time between full refinishes.

Do you move furniture?

Yes. Furniture moving is available. Let us know what needs shifting at the assessment so we can plan for it. Ready to bring your floors back? Book a free in-home assessment and written quote today.
