Annually
Deep clean using a power scrubber system. We offer a deep cleaning system with special scrub and extraction of dirt that has become embedded into the grain of the wood. Call us for details.
Every 3 to 5 years
Get a maintenance coat (possibly sooner depending on the finish system and the floor traffic); this is called a screening — it is a very light sand and one coat of polyurethane. This will take out light scratches, smooth out your surface and add sheen luster back in your hardwood Floors. This a a good investment to help add a protective wear level to the floors.
Every 7 to 10 years
Sand and refinish (again, the length of time depends on the floor, the finish, and the floor traffic).
