      Restoring Original Beauty to Your Floors

There are three important steps to refinishing a hardwood floor: 1) sanding, 2) staining, and 3) applying polyurethane. Atlanta Hardwood Floor takes pride in all three steps. Special dust free sanders are used. Stains which give you a full pallet of colors are presented, and polyurethane which penetrates the wood is applied. Our process results in floors which have beauty, depth, and protection.. The most common praise we receive from our clients is, "Our new floor looks like a table top!"

We are experts with both oil based and water based products. We can apply products made by Minwax, DuraSeal, Basic Coatings, or Sherwin Williams and we help you to select the products which will satisfy your needs for quality, speed and dependability. These products are the latest technology and are proven to work well in Southern homes. For more information on these products, visit www.minwax.com, www.duraseal.com,  www.basiccoatings.com, and www.sherwin.com. We want you t feel comfortable discussing with our professionals the difference between oil based products and water based products.  We also want you to know that we will test your floors on the first visit to determine which products will work best in your home. Just key in (404) - 314-4669 to talk to an experienced professional.

Careful Craftsmanship in Refinishing

We use a number of quality sanding machines on your floor including the 200 pound, Hummel 60 amp sander, the Clarke drum sander, the Clarke square sander, the Clarke edger, the Fein tool, and the Super Bee from Cherryhill Manufacturing Corporation. These sanders when in the hands of knowing craftsmen remove the old finish from your floors and the scratches without damaging your floors in any way. The dust system on the Hummel is the best in the business, the Fein efficiently tool sands corners and under counters, and the Super Bee Finishing machine is designed so that it cannot gouge or scrape your floors. Visit the Cherryhill Manufacturing Corporation at www.u-sand.com to get all the details on this machine. It operates just like a furniture sanding machine and is a critical part of our process.  It's the choice of professionals who want to give their client a floor that is beautiful and durable. We are just a phone call away at (404)-314-4669.

You may also view our work on www.youtube.com. Just go there and search under chestermicek. You'll see handsomely refinished floors, hear discussions on water- base versus oil-base polyurethane and find lots of popular sand-it-yourself videos. You'll enjoy watching a master craftsman operate a 200 pound, 60 amp sander on an oak hardwood floor in the historic Virginia Highlands area. You will see for yourself how fast and dust free the Hummel machine takes scratches and finishes off a floor.

Almost every floor we sand is sanded with 60, 80, 100, and 120 grit sandpaper. That way, all the scratches are removed and the finished floor is smooth to the touch. Stains are a different matter. First we sand them, then, when necessary, we cut them out and replace the offending boards with flooring harvested from closets or other inconspicuous areas of your home.  We invite you to watch our videos, or talk to an expert craftsmen at (404)-314-4669.

Here are some sample colors. When our professional comes to your home, he will show you a full pallet of beautiful colors and finishes. Since no two floors are alike, we recommend that you let us test finish a spot in an out of the way corner or in a closet so you can see how various products look on your floor. That's the best way to know how a stain and finish will work for you. Our prices are very competitive with the Atlanta Market. Call (404) - 314 - 4669 to talk to a floor refinishing expert. Color is not the only quality that makes a beautiful, long-lasting floor. The choice of an oil based polyurethane or a water based polyurethane is critical to many clients. There are issues of speed, durability, depth of finish, and safety to consider as well as tinted and clear products We can help with all these choices.

Dust Control during Refinishing

In addition to producing beautiful refinished floors, Atlanta Hardwood Floor Refinishing  insures a safe, breathable environment during the refinishing process by 1) using machines which don't create much dust, 2) draping items such as kitchen counters and cabinets as well as bookcases and fireplace mantels,  3) sealing all heating/cooling registers with micro-fiber cloth, 4) cordoning off all rooms with canvas curtains, 5) vacuuming frequently with a shop-vac, and 6)  cleaning the walls, ceilings, and window sills with micro-fiber cloth as often as necessary to guarantee a safe working and living environment. If you want a quality finish done in a way that is safe for your family, call (404) -314 -4669. We'll care for your floors like you care for your family.
