Engineered Wood Floor Sanding
Careful, minimal-removal sanding that protects the real-wood top layer.
Overview
Engineered floors have a real hardwood top layer bonded to a stable core. Many can be sanded and refinished – the key is knowing how much wear layer you have and sanding with a controlled, minimal-removal approach. We'll check your floor first and give you honest advice on whether sanding, a buff-and-recoat or another option is right.
- Wear layer checked first
- Minimal-removal sanding
- Removes scratches and dullness

FAQs
Engineered Wood Floor Sanding questions
Can engineered floors be sanded?
Many can, provided the real-wood wear layer is thick enough. We check before we start and will tell you honestly if it isn't suitable.
Is a buff and recoat an alternative?
If the finish is worn but the wood isn't damaged, buffing and recoating can refresh the floor without full sanding.
