Do I Have to Move Out?
This is the most frequently asked question, and the most frequent answer is NO. Accessibility to bathrooms and bedrooms is the greatest concern. We work with our customers' schedules to ensure access to all areas when needed. For example, we paint on finish early in the morning to be dry by late afternoon when residents return from work and/or school.
What about the Dust?
When sanding floors there is no avoiding dust. To minimize this nuisance our machines are equipped with vacuum systems. The dust is collected in bags, which are removed from the house and the dust disposed of. We also seal off the working area from the rest of the site.
What about My Furniture?
All furniture must be removed from rooms to be sanded. The only exceptions are pianos & some very large wall units. The homeowner is responsible for furniture moving unless prearranged with the staff of Atlantic Hardwood Flooring Co.
What about the Carpets?
Atlantic Hardwood Flooring Co. does provide a service for the removal and discarding of carpet, padding, tackles, and staples. Many customers choose to save the cost of this service by doing it themselves, as it is not very difficult, just time consuming.
What about the Stains?
Most stains can be removed by sanding. However, some severe stains may not completely disappear. In such cases, a decision has to be made whether the remaining stain is tolerable (i.e. in an area where it won't be noticed) or if the floor boards must be replaced.
