Refinish Wood Floors Charlotte

We fill the nail holes, gaps and cracks in between each sand paper. At one point we will have every crack and gap filled but it’s impossible to stay that way. Between the old floors moving, the vibration of the sanding and the vacuums a few small cracks may reappear. We try and fill those in between the clear coats of polyurethane. Your Charlotte Hardwood Flooring will grow and shrink throughout the year so you will always have gaps somewhere.If you prefer to have the floor stained (any color) once we have the hardwood floor table top smooth, we then wash the floor with denatured alcohol mixed with water. That opens the grain of the hardwood floor so that the stain can penetrate and gives the floor a deep rich even color. We let that dry, we then stain the hardwood floor. We stain the floor in the direction of the grain. We stain about a 2-foot section at a time working from one side of the room to the other. We let the stain set for a minute or two before wiping it off. It’s still done on our hands and knees ( no machine for this yet ) once the stain has dried we then start applying the 4 coats of clear polyurethane.
