What is Hardwood Floor Screening And Recoating? A Complete Guide

Screening and recoating is an essential maintenance process that revives your hardwood floors without the expense of full refinishing.

The Process

Screening Light sanding (also called buffing) of the floor's surface using a fine-grit screen. This: - Removes minor scratches - Scuffs the existing finish - Prepares surface for new coat

Recoating Application of a fresh layer of finish that: - Restores shine - Provides protection - Extends floor life

• Finish is dull but intact
• No deep scratches or damage
• 3-5 years since last treatment

Benefits
