You can walk on your floors with socks after 24 hours. We recommend waiting 48–72 hours before replacing furniture, and 7 days before placing area rugs to allow the finish to fully cure.

Question 3

How often should hardwood floors be refinished?

On average, hardwood floors should be refinished every 7–10 years depending on traffic and wear. Floors in high-traffic areas may need refinishing more frequently.

Most solid hardwood floors can be refinished multiple times. Engineered hardwood can typically be refinished 1–3 times depending on the thickness of the wear layer. We will assess your floors during the estimate.
