Can you explain the difference between refinishing and buffing hardwood floors?

Refinishing involves sanding down the top layer of your hardwood floors and applying new coats of finish to restore their original beauty. Buffing, or screening, is a less intensive process that lightly sands the top finish to remove minor scratches and imperfections. Buffing is ideal for floors with minimal wear, while refinishing is necessary for deeper scratches and more significant damage.

Should I replace my home’s hardwood floors?

Deciding whether to replace your hardwood floors depends on their condition, age, and your preferences. If your floors have extensive damage, like deep scratches or warping, replacement might be necessary.

Older floors that have been refinished multiple times may also need replacing due to thin wear layers. Aesthetic updates or plans to sell your home soon can also justify replacement. However, if the damage is minor, refinishing might be a cost-effective solution. For personalized advice, consult with Custom Hardwood Flooring LA to explore the best options for your home.
