Over time, wooden floors can develop a lackluster as the finishing becomes somewhat worn.
This can leave your floors looking somewhat sad and in need of attention. There are some
topically applied products on the market that profess to rejuvenate wooden floorings. However,
these products can result in a short-term polished appearance that wears away after being
cleaned, leave a residue on your floor or even eat away the finishing, leaving the wood
exposed. So, is there a solution?
The best way to bring your wooden floors back to life is to have them professionally
rejuvenated. The rejuvenation process is a maintenance strategy that is used when floors have
lost their zest but are not yet damaged to a point of needing to be fully sanded and sealed.
Floors that can undergo a rejuvenation include all types of solid wood floors, strip floors or
reengineered wooden floors, but not laminate floors.
During a rejuvenation, wooden floors will first need to be given a light sand using an elliptical
buffing machine. This will remove dirt and prepare the floor for the new finish. Then, a coat of
sealer is applied to the floor. The entire procedure is designed to be quick and cost effective and
will leave your floors looking less tired.
Not only will your floors be brought back to life, but their lifespan will be extended. Specialists
recommend that this process takes place every 18 to 24 months, depending on the amount of
wear on the floor
