Wake Forest Hardwood Protection
The Best Time to Renew a Floor Is Before the Finish Wears Through.
Many Wake Forest homes have newer solid, prefinished or engineered hardwood. Fine scratches, dull traffic paths and uneven sheen can often be addressed before the wood itself becomes exposed or discolored.
Full Sanding & Refinishing
Correct floors with exposed wood, deep scratches, failed finish or major color concerns by rebuilding the surface from the wood upward.

Wax & Acrylic Removal
Remove acrylic polish and shine-restoring products that may cause haze, trap soil and prevent a professional coating from bonding correctly.

The Maintenance Window Many Wake Forest Homeowners Miss.
Newer and prefinished hardwood often gives warning signs before the finish wears through. Catching those signs early may allow a Screen & Recoat instead of a full sanding.

Walkways lose sheen while protected edges still look healthy.
Fine Pet Scratches
Many marks remain in the coating rather than cutting deeply into the wood.
Uneven Protection
High-use rooms begin looking dry or rough before widespread damage appears.

Common Questions
Is Screen & Recoat suitable for a newer hardwood floor?
Often, yes. If the wear remains in the finish and there is no widespread exposed wood or incompatible contamination, recoating may restore protection without full sanding.
Can pet scratches be removed?
Fine scratches in the finish may improve substantially with proper preparation and recoating. Scratches that reach deeply into the wood may require sanding, color work or repair.
Can prefinished or engineered hardwood be recoated?
Many products can be recoated after compatibility testing. Bevels, factory finish and the wear layer must be considered before work begins.
How do I know when the polyurethane is wearing thin?
Watch for dull traffic lanes, rough grain, gray areas, uneven sheen or places that appear to absorb moisture differently.
Should I apply Rejuvenate or another shine product first?
No. Acrylic shine products can create haze and interfere with future finish adhesion. It is better to identify the existing coating before adding anything.
