Frequently Asked Questions

Can you save old hardwood floors without replacing them?

Yes. Most worn hardwood floors can be saved with a dust-free ReCoat that abrades the old finish and applies a fresh layer of polyurethane in a single day. No wood is removed, no replacement is needed, and the floor is walkable the same evening for roughly one-third the cost of a full refinish.

How much does it cost to restore old hardwood instead of replacing it?

A dust-free ReCoat runs $1.50–$2.50 per square foot. A full sand-and-refinish runs $4–$8 per square foot. Replacing hardwood entirely runs $10–$25 per square foot installed. ReCoating saves 70–90% versus replacement on most floors.

How do I know if my old hardwood floor can be recoated instead of refinished?

Run a fingernail across the worst scratches. If your nail does not catch and you can see worn finish but not exposed wood, a ReCoat will likely work. Deep scratches into wood, pet stains in the grain, or sun-bleached boards usually require a full refinish.

How long does a dust-free ReCoat last on old hardwood floors?

Five to ten years in living areas, three to five years in heavy-traffic zones like kitchens and mudrooms. ReCoating on schedule indefinitely extends the life of the original wood without using up the floor's finite refinishes.

Is dust-free ReCoating really dust-free?

Modern vacuum-shrouded systems capture roughly 99% of airborne particulate at the source. There is no drum sander and no plastic sheeting taping off the entire house. A small amount of fine dust still escapes, but it is dramatically less than a full refinish.
