Many homeowners don't get enough bids and will pick the

referrals, are the member of the better business bureau, do they subcontract
the job or use their own employees. What about dust, cleanup, warranty, are
they using "Green products" when refinishing your hardwood floor.
The steps for hardwood floor refinishing are many and all
are equally important. Startup sanding the floor with a coarse sandpaper
removing deep scratches, proceed with a finer grid until the hardwood floor is
free of scratches.
Next step is to buff the floor and clean up any dust particles. If you choose to apply a stain this is the time to do it. Make sure that the hardwood floor is super clean and you have plenty of ventilation.
After the stain is completely dry it is time to apply a
sealer. This is what protects the floor and gives the shine to it.
As you can see, hardwood floor refinishing is a time
consuming and messy job so you might want to hire a professional.
