Common Questions
Quick answers to practical questions about wood floor service.
How do I determine if my hardwood floor needs repair or replacement?
Assess whether damage is limited to surface scratches or deep structural issues; repairs are suitable for surface wear, while replacement is needed for extensive damage.
What materials are used during refinishing, and how do they affect durability?
Refinishing typically involves sanding and applying a protective finish like polyurethane, which enhances durability and resistance to wear.

Compatibility depends on subfloor condition and type; a professional can evaluate whether it supports the new flooring or refinishing process.

A thorough inspection of surface condition, board stability, and underlying issues determines if repair is feasible or if replacement is better.
