Professional Sanding and Finishing for Hardwood

Hardwood has a long life. When it looks dull, scratched, or uneven, sanding and finishing restores the natural grain and gives your floors a fresh, durable surface. 123 Floor & Home uses professional equipment, low‑dust practices, and premium finishes to bring tired hardwood back to life.

Signs Your Floors Need Sand & Finish

Heavy surface scratches and worn traffic lanes

Gaps, minor cupping, or uneven sheen across rooms

Water stains, pet stains, or sun fading

Fading, discoloration, or dull finish that will not shine after cleaning

You want a new color tone or sheen level

Our Sand & Finish Process

1. Inspection and Plan

We assess wood species, thickness, and previous finish. We confirm repairs, stain color, and sheen so the result matches your vision.

2. Jobsite Protection

We protect adjacent rooms, vents, and cabinets. Furniture is moved or covered. Low‑dust sanding and HEPA filtration are set up.

3. Professional Sanding

Progressive grits remove the old finish and scratches, then refine the surface. Edges, corners, and stairs are blended for a uniform cut.

4. Repairs and Detail Work

We fill nail holes and gaps as needed, replace damaged boards if required, and hand scrape edges where machines cannot reach.

5. Stain and Color Choice

Optional stain samples are applied on your floor for true‑to‑room light decisions. Once approved, stain is applied evenly and allowed to cure.

6. Finish Coats

Two to three protective coats are applied with proper abrading between coats for adhesion. We maintain ideal temperature and humidity for a smooth, durable film.

7. Final Walkthrough

We review results with you, share care instructions, and confirm cure timelines for light use and full move‑in.

Finish Options

Water‑Based Polyurethane: Fast recoat and low odor. Crystal clear look that resists yellowing. Great for natural and light stains.

Oil‑Based Polyurethane: Warm amber tone and rich depth. Excellent durability with a classic look.

Sheen Levels: Matte for modern and low glare, Satin for soft glow, Semi‑gloss or Gloss for higher shine and showpiece rooms.

Dust Control and Safety

Our systems capture the majority of airborne dust at the source. Vents are covered, work areas are sealed, and cleanup includes a full vacuum pass and wipe‑down so your home stays cleaner from start to finish.

What To Do Before We Arrive

Clear small items, drapes that touch the floor, and closet contents near the floor

Arrange furniture moving if needed

Plan for pets and family to avoid work zones during active sanding and coating

Confirm stain color and sheen preferences

Care After Refinishing

Light foot traffic after the time we specify, usually within 24 hours for water‑based, longer for oil‑based

Replace furniture carefully after cure times, use felt pads under legs

Rugs can be placed after the recommended cure window

Clean with hardwood‑safe cleaner, avoid steam mops and harsh chemicals

Maintain stable indoor humidity to protect the boards

Common Questions

Can you remove deep pet stains or water rings?

Many can be sanded out. Severe black stains may require board replacement or a darker stain to blend.

How many times can floors be refinished?

Most solid hardwoods can be refinished multiple times. Engineered floors depend on wear‑layer thickness. We measure before we start.

Will there be an odor?

Water‑based systems have very low odor. Oil‑based has a stronger scent that dissipates with ventilation.

Tips to Keep Your Refinished Floors Looking New

Use floor mats at entries and runners in high‑traffic halls

Add felt pads to all furniture feet

Sweep or vacuum with a hardwood attachment several times per week

Wipe spills quickly and avoid standing water

Schedule a maintenance screen and recoat every few years based on traffic
