Benefits of Refinishing Hardwood Floors: Your Floors Will Shine: A fresh shine
is what most people associate with new hardwood floors and with new finish your floors can also look brand new again. As long
as your existing flooring is solid or an engineered that has 1/8 of wood veneer or more it can be refinished. Cutting or sanding
down to bare wood allows for a color and/or sheen change. If you want to go a few shades darker or add a more glossed look
that’s an option. Once all of the old finish and worn wood has been sanded away a color and sheen is chosen and the
process begins. When the process is finished friends and visitors will not stop asking about your “new” hardwood
floors. Shine Will Last: Floorguys shares with the top manufactures the opinion/fact that the quality of polyurethane

be very expensive. First the existing hardwood would have to be removed and disposed of, new hardwood purchased, new hardwoods
installed. Take the money saved by refinishing and put it towards a ceiling fan, new LED TV or gateway vacation!

Have Allergies?
Doctors often recommend hardwood floors over
other floor coverings because they trap less animal dander, dust, pollen, mites and mold, all of which can trigger allergic
symptoms and respiratory problems.
If you are an allergy sufferer or know someone who is, then you are familiar
with the itchy eyes, runny nose, eczema, and rashes caused by allergies. An estimated 60 million Americans suffer from allergies,
and a recent report prepared by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies concluded that exposure to certain allergy-causing
substances, or allergens, can also lead to asthma in children. While researchers believe that certain individuals have an
inherited tendency toward allergies and asthma, studies also show that specific steps can be taken to reduce or eliminate
allergens.
The droppings of dust mites, those microscopic monsters that colonize bedding, curtains
and carpets, are significant allergens that have been linked to rapidly rising rates of allergies and asthma. Every home has
dust mites and even frequent vacuuming won't eliminate them, or their droppings, altogether.
The
good news is that there is something you can do to help prevent, or reduce allergies, asthma and their symptoms. Some researchers
believe that eliminating the sources of allergens when children are young may help reduce the likelihood that they will develop
allergies. And studies have shown that, even if someone in your home already has allergies, they may experience improvement
after allergens have been reduced or eliminated.
- Remove carpeting from the
bedrooms of allergy sufferers. In fact, natural hardwood floors throughout your home make it easier for you to reduce allergens
by eliminating a haven for dust mites, all the while keeping your home warm and inviting. Make sure that any throw rugs used
in your home are washed weekly in hot water.
- Select furnishings that make limited use of upholstery.
Real hardwood furnishings are attractive and comfortable, and are not welcoming to dust mites.
- Enclose
mattresses and pillows in zippered dust-proof vinyl coverings. These help to keep the dust mites and their droppings away
from those with allergies.
- Keep humidity levels in your home at a steady 50 percent or lower.
Dust mites can't survive when the humidity level is this low.
