What do you do when your old Real-Wood floors are scratched and 'knarly' looking...do you pay the $$mega-thousands$$ and hire a floor REFINISHER........or is there a way you can 'Refresh' your floors, and a much discounted rate.............
Here's an old BeachHouse in Crystal Beach, with beautiful 'real-wood' floors...that have suffered thru tenant after tenant......The owner said he received a $4,000 bid to 'Refinish' the floors....we told him of a much better and less expensive option because it is a Rental....called 'Refresh' (it eliminates the sanding). He challenged us to 'show him' how it works....we selected the worst area of the floor and did our 2' x 2' test area..... |
|
we squared off the test area... |
 |
annotated our Protocals....Mask, rub with Lacquer Thinner, Rub Stain on scratches and gouges, and the carefully apply floor Polyurethane.. |
 |
We matched the stain to a 'Gunstock' Minwax stain... |
 |
and then applied the Poly.............and waited for the owner to review the pic's and send his response......... |
 |
The owner approved the price and the technique......Digital Pic's are a Wonderful thing...........started this Business in 1995 with a Polaroid Land Camera............my my...things have changed...........
3 days later..we gathered our goodies.....and started at the farthest corner of the house...
|
 |
Notice the 2' x 2' text area...? That's the look we want...Rick is seen here taking care of any gouges...getting the floor ready to wipe down with Lacquer Thinner..."room by room" as we go......this preps the old finish to accept the new stain and finish....... |
 |
NO WAY!!!!!!!! IMPOSSIBLE! (yup....) |
 |
Here comes Rick ater finishing all the rooms and the Hallway |
 |
laying down the first of 2 coats.... |

TAAAAA DAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Come on, you can applaud if you feel the need! |
