Hardwood Floor Refinishing
Hardwood floor refinishing involves adding a surface finish to form a protective coating over the wood. These finishes are durable and require minimal maintenance. They generally come in different sheens of high-gloss, semi-gloss, satin, and matte.
Oil Base Polyurethane This is by far the most popular. Professional grade oil based finishes hold color longer and give the ultimate protection. This type of finish ambers with age. Drying time is 8 - 24 hrs.
Water Base Polyurethane For the lightest possible color contrast, minimal curing odor, and fastest drying time, water base is the way to go. This is a clear, non-yellowing finish, but is typically more expensive. Drying time 3 - 6 hrs.
