REFINISHING HARDWOOD FLOOR PROCESSRefinishing Hardwood Floor. "New wood floor" It really depends on the shape of your existing hard wood floor and the type of hardwood floor you have installed in your house or apartment. Lets start talking about installing a new hardwood floor like red oak and we will finish it. - Using a professional floor sander "we use the best one in the flooring industry: the galaxy sander machine" using the floor sander with 36 grit sand paper we will run the machine on the entirely hardwood floor for the first cut. When we finish it, we change the sand paper to grit 80 and run it again. lastly we will change it to grit 120 sand paper On all edges that our big machine can't get we will use the edger sanding machine with a 60, 80 and 120 grit sand paper. We will also use a hand scraper to scrape spots that we can't do with the machines and we also we use it to scraping the steps and risers. Now it's time to work with a professional buffer and for this work we will use a screen grit 80 and 100. When we finish to buff all hardwood floors we will vacuum and clean all hardwood floor. This part is really important, if you leave any wood floor dust or anything it will be covered by the layers of staining and polyurethane oil based or water based. After we have the entirely hardwood floor cleaned and vacuumed it's time to seal your new hardwood floor. We will apply one coat of sealer on all your wood floors surface and after 45 minutes it will be probably dried. Now it's time to buff your floors again, but this time we will use a buffer screen grit 150. When we are finished with this, we will clean the hardwood floor again and we will apply another coat of sealer for better results and wait till is complete dry. Now is time to choose water based or oil based polyurethane. We will follow with the oil based polyurethane and if we apply our first coat of oil based, We will need to wait about 15 hours or until all hardwood floor is dried. For the second coat we will repeat the buffing process and clean the floors again so we can apply our second coat of polyurethane. When the wood floor is dried, we will apply our last and third coat on your hardwood floor. Now we need to wait more 24 hours so the floors is complete dried, then we can move all your stuff and furniture back on. For many years we have been doing refinishing hardwood floor, we can tell you that, if you apply 1 coat of sealer and 2 coats of oil based polyurethane your floors will be very well sanded and finished too. You will have a very nice results on your hardwood floor The sanding work that we have outlined above is when you have the time to get it done, as it will take about 4 days to have all work completed like we have described. What we have done also is doing the same work but steady of oil based polyurethane we can do all this refinishing hardwood floor with Water Based Polyurethane, what will have to change is the amount of coats we will have to apply. To get good results with the water based polyurethane ,we will have to apply around 4 to 5 coats of water based, but this is been used a lot nowadays. Water based polyurethane has no smell at all. It takes about 30 to 45 minutes to dry in between coats. It means that we can have most of the refinishing hardwood floor done in one single day. It helps also when you have furniture inside of the house or apartment and you don't know where you can store it. We can move all the furniture out of one or two rooms and have that space all sanded and finished and when we end with that we can move the furniture back to its place and refinish the hardwood floor on the other rooms. As you can see, water based polyurethane can help and can save you a lot of money. We have to say also that the water based is a little more expensive than the oil based polyurethane but in the end of all refinishing wood work it becomes a lot cheaper than have to move out all the furniture from your house or apartment and pay a storage to have all your furniture moved to there and moved back, also we can do a better price because we will not have to go to your flooring job for 3 or 4 days. We can do most of the wooden floor refinishing in 1 or 2 days. We are not trying to show you that we understand about doing refinishing hardwood floor, We really know how to work with all types of wood floor sanding, installing and finishing. We are only trying to make you understand how the process works so you know what you will have to do to organize your life and your schedule to have a wood floor sanding work done, and sure, being a knowledge customer will prevent you to have bad contractors to rip you off. *When we are refinishing hardwood floor, bamboo, pine, maple the process will change a little, specially the grit of all sanding papers, it depends also how many times your hard wood floor were refinished and sanded before.
