Hardwood Floor Sanding and Refinishing in Oak Park
J.T. from Oak Park contacted Wood Flooring Masters to restore the hardwood floors in their home. The renovation covered 950 square feet of hardwood, which needed a refresh. Our team began by sanding the floors to remove the old finish and smooth out any imperfections. This process ensures that the wood is properly prepared for refinishing, giving it a clean and flawless surface to work with.
Natural Finish for a Classic Look
For this project, J.T. chose a natural finish for the hardwood floors. This means no stain or color change was applied, preserving the wood’s original look and allowing the natural beauty of the grain to shine through. The natural finish gives the floors a timeless, classic appearance that complements various home styles.

Water-Based Polyurethane for Durability
Once the sanding was completed, we applied three coats of water-based polyurethane. This finish is known for its durability and protective qualities. Water-based polyurethane provides a glossy and smooth surface that resists scratches, stains, and wear. It also dries quickly and has minimal odor, making it an ideal choice for indoor projects. The three coats ensure the floor is well-protected, enhancing its beauty and longevity.

The sanding and refinishing of the 950 square feet of hardwood flooring in J.T.’s Oak Park home transformed the space.
