Expert Hardwood Floor Polishing & Buff and Recoat Services
Quality Solutions for Your Needs
⚡ Refresh your hardwood floors without sanding. Our professional Hardwood Floor Polishing (Buff and Poly) service is the fast, affordable way to restore shine and protection to your existing wood floors.
Screen and Recoat
Buff and recoat, also known as screen and recoat, is a hardwood floor polishing service that smooths out minor wear and applies a new topcoat of water-based polyurethane. It’s perfect for floors with light scratches, dullness, or fading — but without deep damage.
All with less dust, downtime, and cost.
Unlike full sanding and refinishing, buffing does not remove the wood surface. Instead, we lightly abrade the existing finish and apply a fresh protective layer — all with less dust, downtime, and cost.
