Preparing Your Home for the Refinishing Process
The furniture in the areas where the work will be performed will need to be removed. Wall art and all personal items in the work area should also be cleared to ensure a seamless refinishing process. This type of project is typically completed while the home is vacant. We highly recommend making arrangements to vacate the premises.
For residential projects, if you choose to stay in your home and only refinish select rooms, it is possible. At Miami Beach Wood Floors, we specialize in low and zero VOC products, ensuring minimal disruption to your living space. Unlike most wood flooring contractors who use high-VOC stains that release hazardous chemicals and strong odors, our eco-friendly approach provides a safer, healthier refinishing experience. (Click here to learn more about the dangers of VOCs to your family and pets.)
Refinishing wood floors is an intricate process that involves dust, precision, and expertise. We utilize state-of-the-art dust containment systems to minimize airborne particles, encapsulating entrances with 3M protective plastics and surface-safe tapes to keep fine dust contained. But let’s be clear: no sanding process is 100% dust-free. Any contractor who tells you otherwise is selling you a myth. What we promise is the most advanced dustless refinishing technology available, reducing dust to an absolute minimum. And before we apply any stain or finish, every wall and surface in the work area will be thoroughly vacuumed and blown clean, ensuring a flawless result.

If you plan to stain your floors with conventional oil-based stains, be aware that the fumes are highly toxic. Our team must wear specialized respirators to protect against harmful chemicals, and for your safety, you, your family, and pets must vacate the property for a minimum of 48 hours after the application. Depending on the scale of your project, you may need to arrange alternative accommodations for up to 72 hours to avoid exposure to these hazardous fumes.
To ensure a safer and healthier refinishing experience, we highly recommend our low and zero VOC wood floor refinishing systems. Our selection includes multiple eco-conscious refinishing packages that provide stunning results without the risks associated with traditional stains.
Our Platinum package is a top choice among families seeking a completely 0-VOC solution. This premium package features a full sanding process to restore your floors to a like-new condition, along with a curated selection of beautiful, eco-friendly stain colors designed to complement your space’s aesthetic.

After we are done drying time depends on the product we use, if it is water-based or oil-based. We will advise you on what is best for your floor. Be informed there are pros and cons for each of the products. Expect anything from 4 hours to 24 hours before stepping on the floor again.
Hardwood Floor Stain Colors
Wood stains come in a wide range of shades, but no two floors absorb color the same way. Factors such as wood species, grain pattern, and previous finishes all influence the final look. The most reliable way to ensure you choose the right stain is by testing samples directly on your floors. This hands-on approach provides a true representation of how the stain will interact with your specific hardwood, allowing you to make the most informed decision.
Our skilled craftsmen take pride in their work and bring extensive knowledge of all types of wood flooring, from unfinished and prefinished hardwood to high-quality laminate. Every installation is handled with precision and care, ensuring a flawless result that enhances the beauty of your space.
