The frequency with which you should refinish your hardwood floors depends on several factors, including foot traffic, the type of finish, and the overall condition of your flooring. Here are some general guidelines:
- Foot Traffic: In high-traffic areas, you may need to refinish your floors more frequently. For areas with moderate to low traffic, refinishing every 7-10 years is usually sufficient for maximum protection.
- Type of Finish: The type of finish on your hardwood floors can also impact the refinishing schedule. Some finishes are more durable than others and may extend the time between refinishing.
- Overall Condition: Regularly inspect your floors for signs of wear and tear, such as scratches, dents, and discoloration. If you notice any of these issues, it may be a good idea to refinish your flooring sooner than the general guideline.
