How You Can Tell It’s Time to Refinish Your Hardwood Floors
Another thing we tell our clients to look out for are any gaps in the boards. These will need to be filled and repaired prior to the sanding and refinishing process. For even more aged hardwood floors, we’ll ask you to check for areas in the floor that are sagging, warping, buckling, cupping, or spongey feeling. These problems will need to be addressed, likely by replacing the boards, prior to refinishing the floors.
The Hardwood Floor Refinishing Process Starts With You
Like we said, how you want your hardwood floors to look is really personal. You might have a very specific idea of style and look you want for your home. What better way to achieve this than to refinish your existing floors.
We see a lot of Victorian houses and furnishings around Virginia Beach. Keeping your wood floors looking a little weathered can really complement this type of furniture and other décor. In this case, we often recommend putting a new stain on your hardwood floors. This beautifully saturates the light in your home and draws attention to the old-style furnishings.
Some clients call and tell us that their floors look beat up like men in spurs have been tromping across them for decades. They’re looking for something more suited to an office or bedroom. In this case, we’ll do a more in-depth repair and refinishing process to get your hardwood looking more home-worthy.
While our professionals at Monster Clean are happy to give you our opinions and suggestions for your hardwood floors. But what we really enjoy doing is learning about your floors’ baseline and then helping your flesh out your ideas and plans.
Dull Hardwood Floors
Shoes are a major culprit. Since your shoes are outside on many surfaces, they track in a lot of dirt. We recommend taking shoes off before walking on hardwood floors, but we also realize that’s not always realistic. Pets and kids are also guilty of tracking in dirt, food, and all number of offenders.
When the only issue with your hardwood floors is that they’re dull, this is actually one of the easier repair jobs. You’re looking to simply bring their shine back and protect them, so you’ll just need a simple refinishing job. Not only will your floors gleam again, but you won’t have to deal with any of the extra time and dust from sanding.
Deep Cleaning Your Hardwood Floors
You’ll want to sweep the hardwood with a soft broom. Soft bristles are essential because they’re so gentle and will prevent the floor from getting scratched more. After sweeping, you’ll want to vacuum the entire floor to pick up any hard-to-reach embedded dirt and remaining dust and debris. The final step is to mop your hardwood floors using a soft cloth and a hardwood floor cleaner.
Sometimes, though, deep cleaning isn’t going to be enough to revive your floors. If this is the case for yours, then give us a call because you’ll likely need to get your floors refinished. Our Monster Clean hardwood floor specialists will be happy to get your floors back to their original beauty and luster.
When Your Floors Need More Than a Quick Fix
For this, we recommend a highly in-depth refinishing service. This type of refinishing is necessary if your hardwood floors are extremely dull, dirty, or brittle. Often these floors will also have a lot of deep gouges and scratches and the wood just looks generally terrible.
Monster Clean’s in-depth refinishing is a multi-step process with services that are guaranteed to get your hardwood floors looking almost brand new again. When you decide this is what your floors need to get them restored to their original beauty, you can expect us to sand the floors and then patch any cracks or blemishes that are in the wood. After you’re satisfied with our sanding and patching job, we’ll put a fresh stain on your floors, and finish the process off with a new top coat. The top coat is a really important step because it provides the hardwood years of protection.

FAQs about Hardwood Floor Refinishing
What is hardwood floor refinishing?
Hardwood floor refinishing is the process of restoring the surface of hardwood floors to remove scratches, dents, and wear. This typically involves sanding down the top layer of the wood and applying a new finish to enhance its appearance and protect it from future damage.
How often should hardwood floors be refinished?
The frequency of refinishing depends on the amount of foot traffic and wear the floors experience. Generally, hardwood floors should be refinished every 7 to 10 years, but high-traffic areas may require more frequent attention.
What is the typical cost of refinishing hardwood floors?
The cost of refinishing hardwood floors in Virginia Beach typically ranges from $3 to $8 per square foot, which is significantly more affordable than replacing the flooring, which can cost between $6 to $18 per square foot.
Can I refinish my hardwood floors myself?
While DIY refinishing is possible, it requires specialized tools and knowledge. Professional refinishing services can provide better results and ensure the process is done correctly, minimizing the risk of damage.
How long does the refinishing process take?
The refinishing process usually takes about 2 to 3 days, depending on the size of the area and the condition of the floors. This is much quicker than a full replacement, which can take 3 to 7 days.
