Project Overview: Sanding and Refinishing in Rockaway Park
P.S. from Rockaway Park, NY, hired Wood Flooring Masters for a hardwood floor renovation in their home. The project covered 1,000 sq ft of flooring, where the team performed sanding and refinishing with a natural finish and applied three coats of water-based polyurethane to give the floor a fresh look and lasting protection.
Sanding: Preparing the Floor for Refinishing
The first step in the renovation was sanding the 1,000 sq ft of hardwood. Sanding removes any old finishes, dirt, and imperfections, allowing the new finish to adhere properly. Our team used professional sanding equipment to ensure the floor was smooth and even, providing the perfect surface for refinishing. This step restored the wood’s original beauty and prepared it for the next stages.

Refinishing: Restoring the Natural Beauty of the Wood
Once sanding was complete, we moved on to refinishing the floor. P.S. opted for a natural finish, meaning no stain or color change. This preserved the wood’s original look and highlighted its natural grain. Refinishing rejuvenated the floor, enhancing its beauty and restoring its warmth, while keeping the timeless appearance of the hardwood intact.
Polyurethane Application: Adding Durability and Shine
To protect the refinished floor, we applied three coats of water-based polyurethane. This coating adds a durable layer of protection against scratches, spills, and general wear and tear. The water-based polyurethane dries quickly and leaves a glossy, clear finish without yellowing over time. It ensures that the floor maintains its fresh, natural appearance while being protected for years to come.
