Refinishing: A Second Life

Solid and thicker engineered hardwood can be sanded and refinished — removing scratches, dents and old finish and applying a fresh stain and topcoat. It’s often dramatically cheaper than replacement and makes old floors look new.

Frequently Asked Questions

If they’re solid or engineered with enough veneer and the damage is surface-level, yes — sanding and refinishing makes them look new for far less than replacement.

Solid hardwood many times; engineered usually once or twice depending on the veneer thickness.

When boards are cupped, buckled or water-damaged, the veneer is too thin to sand, or you want a different species or layout.

Usually much cheaper — it reuses your existing wood. We’ll tell you honestly if it’s the right call.
