Full sanding completely resurfaces your hardwood floors. We remove the old finish and a thin layer of wood to erase deep scratches, pet stains, sun fade, and uneven areas. After fine sanding, the surface is perfectly smooth and ready for your choice of stain and a durable protective finish. Choose full sanding when the finish is worn to bare wood or when you want a new floor color.

What Is Full Sanding Hardwood Floors in Atlanta
Full sanding is a complete resurfacing process that removes old finish and a thin layer of wood to erase traffic lanes, discoloration, and milling marks. Our technicians use professional equipment to level the field and blend edges and corners so the surface is smooth and consistent across rooms and thresholds. Once the bare wood is properly prepared, it can be left natural for a bright, contemporary look or stained to achieve a classic, richer tone.

After sanding, we build protection with professional waterborne or oil-modified finishes selected for your lifestyle and aesthetic. These finishes add clarity and depth while resisting abrasion and everyday spills. Because the floor has been returned to clean wood, the finish bonds correctly and wears more predictably over time.
When Full Sanding Is Better Than Screening or Buffing
Screening lightly abrades the existing finish so a new coat can be applied, which works well for minor scuffs and general dullness. It does not remove deep scratches, pet stains, water marks, or uneven boards. When the finish has worn to bare wood or when you want to change color, full sanding is the appropriate choice because it resets the surface and eliminates damage rather than trying to hide it under a fresh coat.

If you see gray traffic areas, exposed wood around doorways, or discoloration near windows, those are strong indicators that full sanding is needed. During our in-home evaluation we confirm that your floor thickness and species support sanding, review any engineered flooring limits, and provide clear expectations on access, timing, and the color or sheen that best fits your space.
Our Dustless Hardwood Floor Sanding Process in Atlanta
Every project starts with a walkthrough and detailed preparation. We protect adjacent rooms, discuss stain options and sheen levels, and outline a schedule that minimizes disruption. Our dust-control systems and HEPA vacuums reduce airborne particles while we work, which keeps your home cleaner and helps the finish cure properly. The primary sanding removes the old finish and levels the field. Edgers, buffers, and specialty tools refine perimeters, stairs, and tight areas so the surface is uniformly smooth.
โ
If a color change is desired, we apply your chosen stain and allow the correct dry time based on temperature and humidity. We then apply multiple coats of premium finish, with inter-coat abrasion where needed for a flawless final result. Most homes are completed in two to four days depending on square footage and product selection, and we leave you with simple care instructions so the new finish looks great long after we leave.

How long does full sanding take?Most projects finish in two to four days based on square footage, chosen products, and cure times. We provide a clear schedule so you know what to expect each day.
-
Will there be dust?Our equipment is designed for dust control, and we use HEPA vacuums and proper containment. Light settling is normal, and we complete a thorough cleanup before the final walkthrough.
-
Can every floor be fully sanded?Most solid hardwood floors can be sanded multiple times. During the initial visit we check wear layer thickness, species, and any engineered flooring limitations to ensure a safe, successful outcome.
-
Do I need to leave the house?You can usually remain at home, though access to work areas will be restricted and some rooms may be off limits during coating and cure windows. We plan paths and discuss any odor sensitivity before finishing begins.
