Refinishing your home’s hardwood flooring can return it to its former beauty and instantly improve your home’s appearance. However, refinishing is a complex process that can be messy. You will need to remove your furniture before contractors get started. The team at Barbati Hardwood Flooring can work with you and explain how to refinish hardwood floors with furniture.
Why Furniture Must Be Removed
To refinish your hardwood flooring, contactors will have to sand the boards to create a smooth layer. That requires large machinery and can generate a lot of dust. Then the floor will need to be re-stained and given time to dry. If furniture isn’t removed before the process begins, it can get in the way and can also be damaged.
Where to Put Your Furniture
If you’re only going to have the floor refinished in one part of your home, you may be able to move furniture from that area to another part of the house. If that’s not possible, you may be able to park your vehicles in the driveway temporarily and put your furniture in the garage.
If you have hardwood flooring throughout your entire house and you plan to have it all refinished at once, the best solution may be to rent a storage unit that can be placed in your yard or driveway. You will be able to move all your furniture into the unit and keep it safe until the hardwood floor refinishing process is complete. Renting an on-site storage unit can be easier and more convenient than loading up a truck or van and driving your furniture to a storage unit at another location, then loading it back into a vehicle and bringing it home.
