Questions & Answers

Answers to your flooring questions

Yes, if the damage is mostly in the finish layer and not the wood itself

A professional screen and recoat, also called maintenance refinishing, is the most practical solution for floors that have lost their shine, picked up surface scratches, or just look dull and worn from everyday use. The process lightly abrades the existing polyurethane finish and applies a fresh protective topcoat over it. The result is restored clarity, renewed shine, and a finish that looks and performs like new again.

Unlike traditional sanding, a screen and recoat does not remove any wood. That means no heavy dust throughout your home, significantly less odor, and a much shorter turnaround time. Most jobs are done in a single day and the floors are ready to walk on within hours.

For homeowners in North Jersey, working with an experienced hardwood floor company makes all the difference in getting the right recommendation. A proper inspection of the finish condition and wood underneath is what determines the right path forward. 

The determining factor is whether the wear is in the protective coating or the wood itself.

Your floors are typically a strong candidate if:

  • There are no gray or raw wood spots showing

  • The color is still consistent

  • The finish is worn but not peeling

Most floors don’t need to be aggressively sanded to look new again. In many cases, a professional screen and recoat restores the surface and extends the life of the floor by years.

Dull hardwood floors are usually a sign that the polyurethane finish has worn down — not that the floor is dirty.

Over time, foot traffic creates micro-scratches in the protective layer that scatter light and reduce shine. Household cleaners can also leave residue that further clouds the surface.

When the finish is intact but worn, professional buffing and recoating can restore clarity and rebuild protection. Simply cleaning the surface will not correct finish wear.
