Polyurethane Finishing<\/h2>\n

Before committing to the service, you should determine whether you have the proper flooring for screening and recoating<\/a>. This option is designed exclusively for hardwood floors finished with polyurethane \u2013oil-based or water-based. A liquid plastic that sits on top of hardwood, polyurethane is a popular coating that protects surfaces from blemishes<\/a> like spills, scratches, and wear and tear.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, polyurethane deteriorates over time and exposes hardwood floors to such damage. Therefore, regular maintenance is critical to maintaining your floor\u2019s protective coatings and longevity.<\/p>\n

Screening and Recoating Basics<\/h2>\n

Screening and recoating hardwood floors eliminates superficial imperfections, dirt, and dullness. Screening removes a fraction of the existing top layer without touching the wood underneath, which professionals achieve using a special abrasive pad and buffer. Then, the wood is recoated with a fresh layer of polyurethane.<\/p>\n
