Why We Prefer Polyurethane Wood Finish.

Polyurethane is the gold standard when it comes to hardwood floor finishes. It offers a blend of beauty and durability that enhances and safeguards your hardwood floors. So, if you are considering resurfacing your floors or looking for a complete hardwood floor refinishing, our choice is a polyurethane for several reasons:

  • Exceptional Durability: Polyurethane forms a very hard surface that is durable and resists scratches, dents and daily wear. Choosing polyurethane wood finish is an ideal choice for high-traffic areas in your home or office.
  • Protective Barrier: Polyurethane acts as a protective shield for your hardwood floors and repels moisture, spills and stains. It is highly recommended in areas that are prone to spills, such as kitchens and dining rooms.
  • Enhanced Beauty and Luster: A Polyurethane coating brings out the natural beauty of your wood, deepening its color and highlighting the grain patterns. If your preference is a high gloss sheen or a more subtle sheen like satin or matte, polyurethane provides those options.
  • Ease of Maintenance: The smooth and sealed surface created by a polyurethane wood finish makes cleaning easier. Sweeping or vacuuming regularly, along with occasional damp mopping, helps to keep your newly refinished wood floors looking immaculate.


Starkey's Polyurethane Wood Finish Process...

At Starkey's Wood Floor Refinishing, our finishing process assures you that your hardwood floors will receive the attention they deserve:

  1. Consultation and Evaluation: We begin by assessing the condition of your hardwood floors. During our consultation, we discuss your needs and wants, desired sheen levels and any specific concerns you may have.
  2. Surface Prep: Before we apply the polyurethane finish, we make sure the surface is clean and smooth. Sometimes floor sanding is needed to remove any imperfections and create a smooth and even surface for the final finish.
  3. Application: Our skilled pros will apply a polyurethane clear coat finish evenly across the hardwood floor surface. The number of coats depends on the type of polyurethane used and your desired level of sheen.
  4. Drying and Curing Time: Each coat of polyurethane finish requires a certain drying time. We allow as much time as needed for the finish to cure, giving the hardwood floors a tough protective layer to guarantee their longevity.
  5. The Final Inspection: Our commitment to quality extends to a final inspection. We want to make sure that the polyurethane coating is applied without flaw, providing your floors with both beauty and long lasting protection.


Types of Polyurethane Finishes...

  • Oil-Based Polyurethane: This type of polyurethane is known for its rich, amber color and provides a warm, traditional look. This type of polyurethane also requires a longer drying time but does offer excellent durability and longevity.
  • Water-Based Polyurethane: Being a more popular choice, this type of polyurethane dries faster and clearer which tends to maintain the natural color of the hardwood. It is also low in VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) which makes it a more environmentally friendly choice.
  • High Gloss Polyurethane: If you like a glossy finish that shines and reflects light, high gloss polyurethane is an excellent choice as it adds a sophisticated touch to your hardwood floors.
  • Satin Finish or Matte Finish Polyurethane: If you're looking for a floor that is a bit more subdued than glossy, choose this type of finish and it will give you the look that you want.
