What is hardwood floor sanding and refinishing?
Hardwood floor sanding is the process of removing worn areas, dents, bruises and scratches from hardwood floors by sanding down the top layer of the hardwood floor and applying a custom color either in stain, Bona Craft Oil 2K, Bona Nordic Sealer, or in it’s true natural color. You have the option of color and type of color, sealer and finish.
While the process restores hardwood floors perfectly to a brand-new state, processes like sanding produce a lot of dust when done traditionally. While homeowners love the outcome of Dust Free hardwood floor sanding and refinishing, some decide to use a company which does not have dust containment capability, such as ours and they hate the fine layer of dust left in their home’s, especially after weeks, months, and sometimes years after thorough cleaning.

Benefits of dust-free sanding and refinishing
1. No airborne dust or debris to clean up after the work has been completed
Sanding hardwood floors conventionally results in a mess. A superfine layer of dust is bound to settle on anything that is not covered from furniture and carpeting to open storage and clothing. The dust also manages to penetrate underneath doors and reach rooms that have not been worked on.
This is precisely why traditional hardwood floor sanding requires tedious preparation, such as removing furniture and other objects in every room of your home. The preparation may also include covering vents and doorways to keep dust off adjacent rooms. One uncovered vent can circulate dust through the entire home via a HVAC system spreading dust to the entire home. The preparation work for typical hardwood floor sanding is tedious and time-consuming. Let us not even mention the work involved after sanding and refinishing the floor.
That’s where dust free sanding and refinishing comes in handy. Instead of covering your home entirely with sheets and clothes and still getting dust all over, you should seek dust free sanding and refinishing wood floor services.
Such services ensure there is no airborne debris or dust to clean up after the sanding and refinishing is completed. There is no need to worry about covering furniture and other objects in your house or sealed rooms leaking dust.
