No Mess Hardwood Floor Refinishing

Don’t spend the next several years cleaning up the fine dust left by some hardwood floor re-finishers. We use either a the non-sanding or no dust sanding methods while finishing or refinishing hard wood floors.

If your hardwood flooring is only lightly scared or warn, we may be able to avoid sanding all together. Learn more about our no-sanding floor refinishing process here: No sanding refinishing. For normal warn hardwood floors, sanding will most likely be required. Here’s how we do it with minimal dust and mess…

If Floor Sanding is Required:

The Atomic DCS provides a cleaner, healthier and faster sanding process reducing dust far beyond what the traditional sanding process generates.

The innovative concept of the Atomic system is to have a powerful vacuum engine connected to all of the sanding equipment, evacuating the airborne dust generated from the sanding process, and collecting it into our atomic trailer, which is parked outside your home. We also utilize powerful, portable dust containment systems.

The Bona Atomic DCS Process:

  • When Elegant Floor technicians arrive, they will first bring in all the sanding equipment and attach hoses to the equipment that lead out to our atomic trailer which houses the sealed dust container.
  • Our first pass with the sanding equipment removes the old finish and evens out the hardwood surface.
  • We then make multiple passes in the room to completely sand your floor. We use specialized equipment for the edges.
  • Third, we spot check the floor and fill in holes, gouges, and cracks with Bona floor fillers.
  • Next we make a final sanding pass, and after the final floor preparation, we apply three coats of top-grade commercial finish.
  • Last, if desired, you pick the stain that best suits your home. We offer either oil-based or waterborne stains.
