Introduction to the Renovation Project
A.S., a satisfied customer from New York City, needed professional help to restore their hardwood floors in a two-bedroom apartment. The flooring had experienced heavy use over time and required sanding and refinishing to bring it back to life. The goal was to preserve the wood’s natural beauty while applying a durable, long-lasting finish. With our sanding and refinishing services, A.S.’s 750 sq ft floor area was transformed into a stunning hardwood masterpiece.
Sanding the Hardwood Floors
The first task was to sand the hardwood floors, which had scratches and imperfections. Sanding is crucial for removing any damage on the surface, making the wood smooth and ready for refinishing. We carefully sanded the 750 sq ft of flooring to remove old coatings and imperfections, ensuring a clean and even surface. This step is key to achieving a flawless finish that will make the floors look brand new.

Refinishing with Water-Based Polyurethane
After sanding, the next step was to apply a water-based polyurethane finish. A.S. requested a natural finish, meaning there was no stain or color change applied. The water-based polyurethane was perfect for this, as it provides a clear, durable layer of protection while highlighting the wood’s natural grain. Three coats of this high-quality finish were applied to ensure a long-lasting and strong protective surface.
High-Quality Polyurethane for Durability
For added durability and shine, we applied three coats of water-based polyurethane. This product is known for its long-lasting protection and resistance to scratches, stains, and wear. The final result was a polished, high-gloss finish that not only enhanced the natural beauty of the wood but also protected it for years to come. The high-gloss polyurethane finish gave A.S.’s hardwood floors a sleek and polished appearance, making the space look brighter and more inviting.
