Frequently Asked Questions: Floor Sanding

  • Q: Does floor sanding produce a lot of dust in the house?

    No. We use machines equipped with a dust collection system that significantly reduces airborne residue. For 100% dust-free sanding, we offer a specialized service for additional fees. This service is particularly recommended in occupied residential environments.

  • Q: What is the average duration of a floor sanding project?

    A standard floor sanding can generally be completed in 1 to 2 business days, depending on the surface area and wood condition. Thanks to our planetary sander and quick-drying varnishes, you can walk on your floors the day after work is completed.

  • Q: Can you sand an old floor without replacing it?

    Yes, it's even the ideal solution. Sanding removes worn layers to expose healthy wood, ready to be protected. It's an economical alternative to installing a new floor, while preserving the original character of your space.

  • Q: Do you need to apply varnish or stain after sanding?

    Absolutely. A freshly sanded floor is vulnerable to moisture and stains. We strongly recommend applying varnish or stain to protect it and restore its lustre. For more details, visit our [Floor Refinishing and Staining] page.

  • Q: What types of surfaces can be sanded in addition to floors?

    We also offer sanding for stairs, railings, stringers, and wooden posts. Each element is treated with care to achieve a uniform finish that harmonizes with your floors.

  • Q: Do you offer floor sanding in Sherbrooke and on Montreal's South Shore?

    Yes. We serve the entire South Shore, including Longueuil, Brossard, and Saint-Hubert, as well as the Eastern Townships—particularly Sherbrooke, Magog, Bromont, and surrounding areas.
