Deerfield Train Station Hardwood Floor Refinishing

Hardwood Floor Refinishing at Train Station in Deerfield, Illinois

Step 1: Refinishing Hardwood Floors in a High-Traffic Area

Refinishing the floors in a busy train station required a meticulous approach due to the high-traffic nature of the area. We started by:

• Sanding down the floors to remove the old finish and any imperfections from years of foot traffic.
• Carefully refinishing under the radiators, an area often overlooked but critical for achieving a seamless, polished look.

Why Refinishing in High-Traffic Areas Matters:

• Ensures the floor maintains its durability and aesthetic appeal despite heavy use.
• Extends the life of the flooring, minimizing future maintenance needs.

Step 2: Applying Natural Oil-Based Finish

Once the floors were fully sanded and prepped, we applied a natural oil-based finish. This type of finish was chosen for its durability and ability to highlight the natural grain of the wood, while also providing long-lasting protection.

Benefits of Natural Oil-Based Finish:

• Deep penetration into the wood, providing superior protection.
• Creates a warm, natural glow that enhances the character of the hardwood.
• Ideal for high-traffic areas like train stations, offering longevity and durability.
