Q: How often should I polish my wood floors?

• <div><p>Wood floors should be polished every two to four months to maintain a shine and to keep them protected from daily wear and tear. More frequent maintenance includes dry mopping the floors daily and cleaning spills immediately, using a spray mop and cleaner weekly to remove any built up dirt or grime, and sanding and refinishing the floors every three to five years.</p></div>

Q: What should I do after removing the carpet?

• <div><p>After carpet removal, prepare for new flooring by assessing the subfloor. You will want to address any imperfections to create a smooth and level base for installation. Remember, proper subfloor preparation is crucial for optimal new flooring results. Consider repairing and replacing damaged areas for a stable foundation. For both wood and concrete subfloors, consider sanding to remove any debris or adhesives remaining thoroughly. </p></div>

Q: Will buffing remove scratches?

• <div><p>Buffing will only remove scratches at the surface level of your flooring. You may also need to apply hardwood floor wax to restore the wax layer. To remove deeper scratches, you&rsquo;ll need another floor repair method like sanding; however, if you sand the floor, you&rsquo;ll also need to stain and seal it. </p></div>

Very professional and listened to my concerns. Did a great job putting down my flooring. Came back and took care of some issues. They put down vinyl planks, that look like wood, but are more durable. They’ll do a good job for you. Tania and another installer were great.
