Sanding & Refinishing
Over time, hardwood floors can lose their shine from foot traffic, pets, furniture movement, and everyday wear. Scratches, fading, and finish breakdown can make even quality flooring look tired. Our sanding and refinishing service removes damaged surface layers and applies a new finish that restores the wood's character and helps protect it for years to come.
Why homeowners choose sanding and refinishing
If your floors are structurally sound but show signs of wear, refinishing is often a cost-effective alternative to full replacement. Sanding removes imperfections in the existing finish and smooths the surface, while refinishing enhances the appearance of the wood and seals it against future use.
This service can help with:
-
Surface scratches and scuffs caused by daily traffic
-
Dull or faded finishes that no longer protect the wood
-
Minor stains and discoloration on the top layer
-
Aging floors that need a cleaner, more updated appearance
-
Changing the look of your floors with a different stain or finish

Buff & Coat
Restore the Beauty of Your Hardwood Floors Without Full Sanding
Over time, hardwood floors can lose their shine and develop light scratches, dull traffic patterns, and surface wear. A buff and coat service is an affordable way to refresh your floors and restore their appearance without the time, expense, or dust of a complete refinishing project.
At Bissell Hardwood Floors, our buff and coat process renews the protective finish on your hardwood floors, helping them look cleaner, brighter, and more beautiful while extending their lifespan.
What Is a Buff and Coat?
A buff and coat, sometimes called a screen and recoat, is a maintenance service that removes minor surface imperfections and applies a fresh coat of polyurethane finish.
During the process, we:
-
Clean and prepare the floor surface
-
Lightly abrade (buff) the existing finish
-
Remove dust and debris
-
Apply a new coat of premium hardwood floor finish
The new finish bonds to the existing coating, restoring shine and adding a fresh layer of protection.
Benefits of a Buff and Coat
1. Restore Shine
Bring back the rich, clean appearance of your hardwood floors.
2. Reduce Light Scratches
Minimize the appearance of everyday wear, scuffs, and surface scratches.
3. Extend Floor Life
Protect your investment by renewing the finish before wear reaches the wood itself.
4. Faster and More Affordable
A buff and coat costs significantly less than a full sanding and refinishing project.
5. Minimal Disruption
Most projects can be completed quickly with far less dust and downtime than traditional refinishing.
Is a Buff and Coat Right for Your Floors?
A buff and coat is ideal when:
-
Floors appear dull or worn
-
Light scratches are visible in the finish
-
High-traffic areas have lost their sheen
-
The existing finish is still intact
A buff and coat may not be appropriate if:
-
Deep scratches expose bare wood
-
Significant finish failure is present
-
Floors have severe discoloration or water damage
-
Wax, polish, or incompatible coatings have been applied
