Vintage hardwood floors are not just another accessory or basic floor covering. The best floors are a stunning feature of the home that gives the entire interior warmth, quality and style. Many hardwood floors last for hundreds of years and when cared for properly will look even more beautiful decades after they are installed than they did at the time they were new. Refinishing a wood floor helps to restore its original glory, but it can be disastrous if it is not done correctly.
Floor Refinishing in Manhattan is a talent and many people underestimate the difficulty of doing it properly. Sanding the floors incorrectly can leave grooves and marks that are difficult for even professionals to correct. It is also possible to cause irreparable damage.

Applying the new finish requires adequate ventilation, the right materials and a lot of effort. It also takes time for the stain and urethane to dry properly and for the application of the next layer.
