Frequently Asked Questions
Isn’t this work dusty?
Yes, it is true. Hardwood floor refinishing can be quite dusty, there’s no dancing around that one. Some companies try to claim that there will be no dust, and this is simply untrue – there will always be dust. We are using large, heavy duty sanders to grind away at the top layer of your floor. These sanders are removing the layers of polyurethane, taking out stains, and removing scratches. Our equipment has dust bags that catches the majority of dust, but the rest inevitably ends up in the air. Therefore we make good use of plastic. We plastic off entries and rooms where we are not working, as well as counter tops and appliances left in the room. And of course at the end of the job we pride ourselves in vacuuming and cleaning up as much as reasonably possible. We also remind our customers if they want another layer of protection against the dust issue, we offer a “dustless” service. The “dustless” service involves connecting vacuums to our sanders, preventing even more dust from escaping into the air.
What kind of polyurethane do I choose?
The two primary types of polyurethanes to choose from are oil based and water based.
Oil is more traditional and time tested. It is very durable and very rich in appearance. Oil is economical in price and most common. However, oil also has slower drying time and considerable fumes. Water is more expensive, but it has quicker drying time and fewer fumes. You can also achieve different looks with water. Good quality water based polyurethane is more durable these days than oil. The option of staining your floor has also become very popular.
Where do you source your flooring?
We source all our hardwood flooring from a local distributor, Specialty Forest Products, located in Hopedale, Massachusetts. They offer a spacious showroom, available by appointment, showcasing an impressive selection of products. Specialty Forest Products features a diverse range of unfinished and prefinished flooring options. With an extensive inventory of brand-name floors, they provide our clients with hundreds of colors, textures, species, and styles, allowing you to stay ahead of today’s ever-changing flooring trends.
