Dustless Sanding, Custom Staining & Premium Finish Systems

Our dustless sanding process keeps your home clean while removing old finish layers and exposing the natural wood beneath. We provide a wide range of stain options — natural, light, medium, dark, walnut, espresso, and modern white-oak tones — to match your interior design. After staining, we apply high-performance multi-coat finish systems that shield your floors from scratches, moisture, and daily wear. Each coat is lightly abraded and vacuumed to ensure a smooth, contaminant-free final surface.

Step 1
Prepare the rooms, repairs and set-up

Before the hum of floor sanding begins, meticulous preparation is crucial for a flawless outcome. Our team diligently ensures that every nail is hammered down and all necessary wood flooring repairs are comprehensively addressed. Employing cutting-edge dustless floor sanding technology, we maintain a pristine work environment. This involves thoroughly sweeping and vacuuming to perfectly prepare the stage. With the groundwork laid, we stand ready to transform homes, guaranteeing a revival of elegance and allure. This is our commitment to excellence at every step of the process.

Step 2
Sanding off the existing old finish

After preparing the hardwood floor, the sanding process begins. We use specialized sanding equipment, such as belt sanders for large areas and edgers for corners and edges. Various sandpaper grits are selected based on the floor's condition and wood type, gradually working down to finer grits. This process removes the old finish, bringing the hardwood back to its bare, natural state.

Step 3
Detailed fine sanding and filler

Once the floor is sanded down to its bare essence, the art of fine sanding begins. Our skilled professionals meticulously work to remove the coarse markings left by the initial sanding, employing progressively finer grit sandpaper with each pass. The aim is to achieve a surface that's not just smooth, but exquisitely refined. For clients who have entrusted us with new wood flooring installations, this stage is also critical. Here, we seamlessly integrate putty filling, ensuring a flawless finish and enduring quality that stands the test of time.

Step 4
Finishing touches and clean up

Once the hardwood floor sanding with the machines is complete, the final touches are done by hand. We use hand scrapers to reach the areas under radiators, along the trim and in corners that the sanders can’t reach. These areas are then hand sanded to match the final grit from the sanders. Then there’s lots of vacuuming and clean-up to get ready for the next step.

Step 5
Staining the floor a different color (Optional)

If you want to change the color of your wood floor, this is the stage where we apply pre-color treatments or stains. When searching for floor refinishing companies, ensure they have proven expertise in custom flooring and staining. This part of the project requires precision, and a lack of skill can lead to unsatisfactory results, so it's essential to choose a company with the right experience.

Step 6
Applying the finish coats

Now it’s time to apply the finish. The number of coats and the overall time required will depend on the chosen finish system. Multi-coat finishes require the hardwood floor to be lightly abraded between coats. After each abrasion, the floor is carefully tacked and vacuumed to remove any debris, ensuring a clean, contaminant-free surface for the next layer.

I would highly recommend Wills Flooring! They were very easy to work with and accommodating when we had to move our installation date. We are very happy with their professionalism and the quality of the product. They replaced our entire first floor and stairs with LVP, removed carpet, leveled portions of the floor and built proper steps to code.
