FAQ
Commercial Floor Questions, Answered
What is commercial floor restoration, and how is it different from refinishing?
Restoration covers the spectrum from a screen-and-recoat (buff off the tired top layer, apply fresh commercial-grade finish — one day, no bare-wood sanding) up to full refinishing (sand to bare wood, refinish completely). Most commercial floors that look worn only need restoration, at a fraction of the cost and downtime. We assess free on site and tell you honestly which your floor needs.
How much downtime will my business have?
Often none. Screen-and-recoat with commercial water-based finishes is typically walkable in hours, and we schedule nights and weekends so you open Monday on restored floors. Full refinishing takes longer — we phase it by section so operations continue.
Do you work after hours and weekends?
Yes — most of our commercial work in Bethesda and the DMV runs after close or over weekends at no scheduling premium. We coordinate directly with building management and provide COIs to the building before work starts.
Do you offer recurring commercial floor maintenance programs?
Yes. High-traffic commercial hardwood should be buffed and recoated on a schedule (typically every 12-24 months depending on traffic) so it never wears through to bare wood. Standing-schedule clients get locked rates and priority booking.
What types of commercial floors do you service?
Hardwood restoration, buffing and polishing, and full refinishing for offices, retail, restaurants, salons, medical suites, and common areas — plus LVP, tile, and commercial-grade epoxy for fit-outs. Licensed (MHIC #111360) and insured, serving Bethesda, Montgomery County, and the DMV since 2010.
Do you restore hotel lobby and building common-area floors?
Yes. Hotel lobby floor restoration and building common-area work is a core part of what we do across Bethesda, Montgomery County and the wider DMV. Our crews have delivered five-star hospitality flooring, including the custom chevron installation at the Four Seasons Baltimore. Lobbies, corridors, elevator landings and amenity rooms are screened and recoated on a night or weekend schedule, so guests and residents never walk past a closed floor.
Do you handle industrial and commercial bathroom floor restoration?
Yes. Industrial bathroom floor restoration is normally a tile, grout and sealant job rather than a sanding job. We regrout and reseal porcelain and ceramic floors, replace cracked or lifted tile, and install commercial-grade epoxy where a seamless, water-tight surface is required. Restrooms in offices, restaurants, medical suites and warehouses are scheduled after hours so the facility stays open.
What commercial floor restoration services do you offer in Washington DC and Northern Virginia?
The same full range we run in Bethesda. Our commercial floor restoration services cover screen-and-recoat, buffing and polishing, full hardwood refinishing, LVP, tile and commercial-grade epoxy, delivered across Washington DC, Arlington, Fairfax, Tysons, Vienna and the rest of the DMV. We are licensed in Maryland (MHIC #111360) and insured, and we issue certificates of insurance to building management before work starts.
