Hardwood Screen & Recoat

Some consider screen and recoat the best-kept secret in hardwood flooring maintenance. This cost-effective method offers a way to rejuvenate your floors without the extensive labor and expense of a full sanding and refinishing process. While not all floors are suitable for this treatment, many can be effectively restored, saving you a significant amount of money and effort. Here’s a deeper look into the process and its benefits:

Understanding Screen and Recoat

1. Inspection and Assessment:

  • Professional Evaluation: Our experts begin with a thorough inspection of your hardwood floors. They assess the condition of the existing finish and the wood underneath to determine if screen and recoat is a viable option.
  • Suitability Check: This process is ideal for floors that have surface-level scratches and a worn finish but are otherwise in good condition. Deep gouges, extensive damage, or floors with wax buildup may require different treatments.

2. The Screening Process:

  • Surface Abrasion: Screening involves lightly abrading the existing finish using a floor buffer fitted with a sanding screen. This step removes the top layer of the old finish and smooths out minor imperfections, creating a clean, uniform surface.
  • Dust Minimization: Unlike full sanding, screening generates minimal dust, making it a cleaner and quicker process with less disruption to your home.

3. Recoating:

  • Application of New Finish: After screening, a new layer of protective finish (such as polyurethane) is applied. This new coat adheres well to the abraded surface, restoring the floor’s shine and adding a layer of protection against wear and tear.
  • Finish Options: You can choose from various finishes, including matte, satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss, depending on your preference and the desired look of your floors.

Benefits of Screen and Recoat

1. Cost-Effective:

  • Affordable Maintenance: This process is significantly less expensive than a full refinishing job, offering a budget-friendly way to maintain and enhance your hardwood floors.
  • Extends Floor Life: By maintaining the protective finish, screen and recoat can extend the life of your hardwood floors, delaying the need for more intensive and costly restoration.

2. Time-Efficient:

  • Quick Turnaround: The entire process typically takes just one to two days, allowing you to enjoy beautifully restored floors with minimal downtime.
  • Minimal Disruption: Since there is no heavy sanding involved, there’s less mess and fewer disruptions to your daily life.

3. Enhanced Appearance and Protection:

  • Revitalized Look: Your floors will regain their original shine and beauty, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your home.
  • Added Durability: The new finish provides an extra layer of protection against scratches, stains, and daily wear, helping to keep your floors looking great for longer.
