Professional dust-contained hardwood floor sander working across white oak planks in a sunlit Toronto home.
  • Bona dust containment — 99%+ capture, occupied-home friendly
  • Full sand or screen-and-recoat depending on remaining wear layer
  • Custom stain matching to stairs, millwork, and adjacent rooms
  • Bona Traffic HD and Loba 2K systems for dogs, kids, and condos

Refinishing is the highest-ROI hardwood job in the GTA. A tired red-oak floor from 1998, sanded correctly and finished in a modern matte, outperforms a cheap vinyl plank at a fraction of replacement cost.

We do not 'dustless-sand' with a shop vac taped to a rental drum. Green Hardwood runs professional containment: perimeter sealing, negative air where needed, and a sanding sequence (open-coat belts, then multi-disc) that does not dish the edges or leave chatter.

Finish choice is a performance spec. Waterborne two-component (Bona Traffic HD, Loba 2K) for condos and commercial. Hardwax oil for owners who want a repairable, low-sheen European look and will maintain it. Oil-modified only when the client wants that warmer amber and accepts the odour window.

If the floor has already been sanded to the nails, we will tell you and quote replacement. Sanding a floor that has no wear layer left is how you buy a new floor twice.
