Hardwood Refinishing in Pennsylvania

Hardwood floors add beauty and refinement to your home or business, but we don’t have to tell you that time isn’t always your floor’s best friend. Over time, your hardwood floor can show its age, becoming cracked, warped, discolored, or broken. Don’t worry, you don’t need new floors just yet!

Sanding and refinishing your hardwood are like getting a facelift for your floors, and at Martins Carpet One Floor & Home, we can help you brighten the hardwood floors in your home or business.

Let’s learn more about the amazing hardwood improvement and maintenance options we offer.

Does My Hardwood Floor Need to Be Refinished?

Does your hardwood flooring need major help? Here’s how you can tell your floor is due for repair.

Solid hardwood flooring is thick and forgiving, letting you sand and refinish it repeatedly. We should note that not all engineered hardwood floors can be refinished, though some of them can, depending on the thickness of the floor’s top layer.

Here are some sure signs that it’s time to consider hardwood repairs: 

• Visible Damage: Dents, cracks, and scratches make us sad.
• Discoloration: Do you see “bald spots” where the color no longer shines?
• Worn Finish:  Has your once glossy floor recently grown thin or drab?
• Texture Changes:  Are your floors feeling rough or do you notice any splintering?
• Loosened Boards & Gaps: Are there gapes between your floorboard’s, or do some of the planks wiggle when you walk?

Let’s Work Together

Curious about the hardwood refinishing process? Not to worry!

Our experienced technicians are here to talk you through every refinishing process, from start to finish. Before we take our tools out of the bag, we’ll sit down for a chat with you, so there won’t ever be any surprises.

Generally, you can expect us to:

• Clear your room of all furnishings.
• Pull up baseboards if needed.
• Find the right power line- sometimes this means using a line for a stove or clothes dryer, depending on the equipment needed.
• We’ll start sanding.
• Once sanding is done, we will stain your floor if needed.
• Finally, we’ll finish your hardwood floor.

How Can I Best Prepare for My Hardwood Refinishing?

The best things in life take time, and hardwood refinishing is no exception.

It’s important to remember that your room needs to be completely emptied before work can begin. This is necessary to ensure your stain and finish is even and uniform.

There are often instances when the entire refinishing process takes multiple days, with breaks in between to allow for stains and finishes to dry and cure properly. Multiple coats are usually needed for best results.

Please note for certain types of hardwood species, only finishing is recommended, and staining isn’t offered to ensure the most beautiful and lasting results. Got questions? Our flooring associates are always happy to help guide your way!
