Before the Holidays!
We understand that refinishing wood floors is a big undertaking. It’s time consuming whether you do it yourself or hire a floor refinishing company. Not to mention there are inconveniences associated with any home improvement project. Some homeowners tell us they have a fear of making the wrong decision and not loving the results. But, with the holidays quickly approaching and kids back in school, now is the perfect time to get started. Here are a few reasons why.
Refinishing Wood Floors Gives Your Home a Fresh New Look
And what better time of year than just before the holidays and new year to give your home a new look? By getting started now (yes, in August), your floor refinishing company will have time to get you on their schedule so the work is complete before family and friends begin escaping their cold homes for the warmth and sun of Tampa Bay. Plus, your floors will have time to cure so you can put up decorations and enjoy the floors.
A Fresh Finish Protects the Wood
Over time the finish on your wood floors wears away. The finish (sometimes called topcoat or sealant) is what adds to the floor’s durability. When your finish isn’t at its best, usually after about seven to ten years depending on traffic, your floors are more susceptible to water damage from a spilled drink or overwatered plant. Whether you completely strip your flooring to the bare wood or just have your flooring company strip the finish to an even layer and then recoat them, your floors will be stronger and more able to withstand holiday traffic and minor accidents.
Refinishing Wood Floors Creates a Healthier Environment
Many homeowners choose hardwood floors because they are a low allergen flooring solution. However, with normal traffic, dropped items, and pets, the floors are dented and scratched. Of course, regular everyday living wears away the finish. Over time all those small imperfections trap dirt, germs and allergens. Refinishing wood floors closes those openings and makes for an easier to clean and maintain surface. If you’re like our team, any way to feel better is worth it any time of year!
