Project Overview: Buffing and Polyurethane in Philadelphia
D.Z. from Philadelphia, PA, hired Wood Flooring Masters for a 400 sq ft hardwood floor renovation. The project involved buffing the floor to smooth out imperfections, followed by one coat of water-based polyurethane to restore the floor’s shine and add long-lasting protection.
Buffing the Floor: Bringing Back the Shine
Buffing was the first step in the renovation process. This technique helps to smooth out minor imperfections and refresh the floor’s natural shine without the need for sanding. Our team used specialized equipment to buff the entire 400 sq ft, restoring the beauty of the hardwood.

Applying Polyurethane: Sealing and Protecting the Floor
Once the floor was buffed, we applied one coat of water-based polyurethane to protect the wood. Polyurethane acts as a protective layer, preventing moisture damage and wear. Water-based polyurethane is ideal because it dries quickly and doesn’t yellow over time, maintaining the floor’s natural appearance.
Enhanced Durability: A Long-Lasting Finish
The combination of buffing and polyurethane application provided D.Z. with enhanced durability. The polyurethane layer ensures the floor can handle foot traffic and everyday spills without compromising its look. This added protection makes the floor more resilient and easier to maintain.
