Hardwood floors bring timeless beauty and value to your home. But over time, scratches, dullness, and wear can make them look tired. The big question for many homeowners in Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Centennial, and Littleton is: Do I need a full refinishing, or will a simple maintenance service like screen & coat be enough?
At NovaSpace, we specialize in both hardwood refinishing and maintenance. Here’s a clear breakdown to help you decide what’s best for your floors.
Refinishing is the process of fully sanding down hardwood floors to remove the old finish and surface damage, then applying a new stain and protective coating.
When You Need Refinishing:
Screen & coat is a lighter maintenance process. Instead of sanding the wood, the surface is buffed (screened) to remove light scratches and dullness, then a new protective coat is applied.
When Screen & Coat Works Best:
– How often should I refinish my hardwood floors?
Most homes need refinishing every 7–10 years, depending on traffic and wear.
– How often should I schedule screen & coat?
Every 3–5 years is recommended to maintain protection and avoid costly refinishing.
– Can screen & coat fix deep scratches?
No, it only addresses surface-level wear. Deep scratches require refinishing.
– Does refinishing create a lot of dust?
We use modern equipment with dust-control systems to minimize mess.
Whether your hardwood floors need a full refinishing or just a screen & coat maintenance service, NovaSpace delivers expert flooring care in Denver that extends the life and beauty of your home.
