We start the hardwood floor refinishing process by sanding your
hardwood floor with a rough paper to eliminate any depressions, dings, or
inconsistencies and to create a solid foundation from which to
start. Moving to finer sandpaper, we remove all scratches from initial sanding. Because we use different machines for the main
floor and edges, during the third and final step in sanding, we buff
the floor with a screen to bring the edges and main floor together
before applying stain or waterborne urethane.
After a thorough vacuuming process, we
will apply two coats of high quality waterborne urethane.
Before applying the final coat, we will buff the hardwood floor to “knock
down” any imperfections created by dust, or dirt. When the hardwood floor is
prepped and clean, we apply the final coat to your hardwood floor.
[Most polyurethane has volatile organic compounds (VOC) of 450-600
grams/liter. At Voyageur Flooring we use high quality water based
polyurethane that has 100-150 VOC.]
The final step is to let you live with
the hardwood floor for a day, after which Voyageur Flooring comes back to
make sure you are happy with your new hardwood floors.
We have a new before and after gallery where you can look at pictures of actual jobs. Seeing before and after photos helps put into perspective what Voyageur Flooring's capabilities are: NEW GALLERY.
