Imagine floors that look as stunning as the day they were installed—without the noise, dust, or lengthy process of sanding. Our professional hardwood floor screening and recoating service in San Marcos, TX gives your floors a refreshed, beautiful appearance quickly and cleanly.
Our Screen and Recoat Process: The Smart Alternative to Full Sanding
When it comes to revitalizing the beauty of your hardwood floors in Austin, TX, the screen and recoat process offers an efficient, cost-effective solution—especially when a full refinishing project isn’t necessary.
At Call Dr. Hardwood, our proven approach to this specialized service ensures your floors look fresh, protected, and polished without the need for extensive sanding. Here’s how the screen and recoat service works:

Floor Inspection & Consultation
Before anything begins, we assess the condition of your floors. Our experts check for deep scratches, gouges, and whether the finish has worn through. If an existing finish still protects the wood, it may qualify for a screen and recoat instead of full refinishing.

Cleaning the Hardwood Floors
We start by performing a detailed hardwood floor cleaning using our professional cleaning services. This will remove any wax, dirt, or contaminants to ensure proper adhesion of the new finish.

Lightly Abrading the Existing Finish
Next, we use a specialized buffer to abrade the surface. This step is often called “screening,” and it’s the heart of the screen and recoat process. By lightly abrading the existing finish without sanding down to bare wood, we create a surface ready to bond with a new coat of polyurethane.

Applying a New Coat of Finish
Once prepped, we apply a fresh coat of high-quality, water-based polyurethane. Clients can choose their preferred sheen level—matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss—depending on the look they want and the level of durability needed.

Curing & Aftercare
After the fresh coat is applied, we allow time for it to dry and cure. Most floors are walkable within 24 hours and ready for furniture after 48–72 hours, depending on the type of polyurethane used.

Frequently Asked Questions
Looking for more information about hardwood recoating in San Marcos, TX? Here are some helpful answers:
Can you change the color of your hardwood floors with a screen and recoat?
No. A screen and recoat maintains your existing color. A full sand and refinish would be necessary to change the color of your floors.
Is the process dusty or messy?
No. Thanks to our dust-minimized refinishing system, we keep your San Marcos home clean throughout the project.
Which types of hardwood flooring can you recoat?
Most polyurethane-finished hardwood floors are ideal candidates for a screen and recoat. We’ll confirm eligibility during our initial inspection.
Will a screen and recoat make my floors less slippery?
Yes. A new protective layer improves floor traction, reducing the risk of slips and making your floors safer to walk on.
Can you schedule hardwood refinishing during the winter or humid months in San Marcos, TX?
Absolutely. We adjust our techniques based on seasonal conditions, ensuring great results no matter the time of year.
