What we walk into in Dundas
Nineteenth-century brick and stone homes on narrow lots, many with original pine and early oak. Access is genuinely difficult — parking, stairs, and material handling all need planning before a crew arrives.
Careful heritage restoration, pine repair, and stair work in flights that predate any modern rise-and-run expectation.
How we specify sanding & refinishing here
- Bona dust containment — 99%+ capture, occupied-home friendly
- Full sand or screen-and-recoat depending on remaining wear layer
- Custom stain matching to stairs, millwork, and adjacent rooms
- Bona Traffic HD and Loba 2K systems for dogs, kids, and condos
Refinishing is the highest-ROI hardwood job in the GTA. A tired red-oak floor from 1998, sanded correctly and finished in a modern matte, outperforms a cheap vinyl plank at a fraction of replacement cost.
We do not 'dustless-sand' with a shop vac taped to a rental drum. Green Hardwood runs professional containment: perimeter sealing, negative air where needed, and a sanding sequence (open-coat belts, then multi-disc) that does not dish the edges or leave chatter.
Finish choice is a performance spec. Waterborne two-component (Bona Traffic HD, Loba 2K) for condos and commercial. Hardwax oil for owners who want a repairable, low-sheen European look and will maintain it. Oil-modified only when the client wants that warmer amber and accepts the odour window.
