Apartment - Astoria, Queens, NY

 

Before:

 

This customer needed their hardwood floors refinished. Years of dirt and debris had worked their way into the wood floor's surface, deteriorating the polyurethane and leaving the boards exposed. Once the wood is exposed the embedded soils cause severe damage and discoloration. The results are seen in the photo..

 

A close-up of the unprotected area shows just how much damage was done to these hardwood floors over the years.

 

 

This section of hardwood flooring was in better condition then the more damaged areas but discoloration and an uneven shine can be seen in the upper half of the photo.

 

The back area of the apartment's parquet flooring had heavy damage as well. In order to restore these floors our Sandless Finish Hardwood Floor Refinishing Specialists would have to employ a variety of techniques.

 

 

After:

 

Our specialists used our Sandless Finish Hardwood Floor Refinishing Process to remove all of the dirt and debris from the floor. Once the floor was sanitized completely, our specialists could focus on restoring the original color to the discolored patches of flooring. The overall results of our processes are evident in the photo.

 

 

A close-up of a previously discolored area of flooring shows the success of our Custom Sandless Finish Color Blending Process. Our color specialists created a custom stain to match the discolored area to the rest of the wood floors. Once a seamless match was achieved, multiple layers of a high quality, commercial grade polyurethane were applied to ensure lasting protection.

 

 

After our Sandless Finish Hardwood Floor Refinishing and Custom Color Blending Processes were performed the floors have a beautiful, consistent color and vibrant shine!

 

Another problem faced by our Specialists was the fact that furniture had to remain in the room the work was performed. In such cases our Sandless Finish Hardwood Floor Refinishing Specialists utilize a "half and half" technique. Using this method the furniture is moved to one side of the room and the floor is refinished. Once the wood floors are restored and the polyurethane dries, our Specialists move the furniture safely onto the newly refinished flooring. Then the rest of the wood floor is restored and a seamless finish is achieved! This photo shows the various steps in our process - The far left strip of flooring was refinished first, the middle section is a sanitized section of flooring without color/polyurethane, and the far right strip is the parquet floor in it's original state.

 

 

 

After our Sandless Finish Process even the highly discolored second half of the apartment came out with a beautiful color and shine!

 

Using a variety of techniques, our Sandless Finish Hardwood Floor Refinishing Specialists were able to restore the customer's parquet flooring to it's original and vitality and sheen. The customer now has hardwood floors that look beautiful and are highly protected for the years to come!
