Introduction to the Refinishing Project
Hardwood Floor Refinishing in Philadelphia was the goal for C.R., who wanted to restore the natural beauty of their 700 sq ft hardwood floors at 5320 Glenmore Ave, Kingsessing, Philadelphia, PA 19143. C.R. contacted Wood Flooring Masters for our sanding and refinishing services to breathe new life into their floors. Our team was ready to bring back the shine and durability to C.R.’s floors with our expert refinishing process.
Sanding to Restore the Surface
The first step in the refinishing process was sanding the floors. Our sanding technique is designed to remove old finishes and any imperfections in the wood, preparing it for a fresh new look. We focused on sanding the 700 sq ft area of C.R.’s floors, ensuring the surface was smooth and even. The sanding process is essential for restoring the wood’s natural appearance, making it ready for the next stage of refinishing.

Refinishing with Natural Finish
For this project, C.R. chose a natural finish without any stain or color change, preserving the original color and beauty of the wood. This is a popular choice for homeowners who want to enhance the natural grain of their hardwood floors without altering their color. After sanding, we applied three coats of water-based polyurethane. This not only protects the wood but also gives it a beautiful, smooth surface that’s easy to maintain.
Applying a Satin Finish
To complete the refinishing process, we applied a satin finish to the floors. The satin finish offers a subtle, low-luster shine that enhances the wood’s natural beauty without being too glossy. Satin is a great option for those looking for a durable finish with a soft, elegant look. The three layers of water-based polyurethane helped to create a protective barrier that would keep the floors looking great for years.
