Royal Wood Floors, Tampa’s wood flooring restoration company, offers Tampa homeowners some insight into how and when to use wood floor buff and coat services.

TAMPA, FL, UNITED STATES, May 28, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Royal Wood Floors, one of Tampa’s most reputable professional hardwood floor restoration companies, explains the secret behind affordable long-lasting hardwood floors: periodic buff and coat treatments. While every floor that receives a fair amount of abuse is bound to be in need of repairs at some point in time, large costs can be avoided by this fast and simple maintenance technique.

“Buffing and coating are both a repair and a preventative measure that prolongs the life of the floors and slashes down large repair costs,” says Keith Allman, the company’s owner. “It means removing the wood floor’s old protective layer and replacing it with a new one before any damage gets to the wood. If this is done periodically, serious damage to the wood floors is kept at bay. Tampa homeowners who want to preserve the look of their floors without breaking their wallet should consider a buff and coat treatment every few years.”

The professionals at Royal Wood Floors, which offers homeowners in Tampa hardwood flooring buff and coat services at competitive rates, explain the reason why buff and coat treatments are efficient in preserving the beauty of hardwood floors. This type of maintenance routine takes care of the floor’s top layer, usually consisting of several coats of polyurethane. In turn, this uppermost coat prevents superficial scratches, water spills or pet accidents from getting to the wood planks. If this protective top layer is maintained in good shape, the wood underneath remains untouched.

The alternative is allowing the polyurethane to inevitably wear off. Once this layer is compromised, the next scratch gets down to the wood. The only way to repair unsightly damages at the level of the wood planks is to sand the floor and refinish it. This is a much more involved project, longer, more disruptive and not at all easy on the pocket.

By contrast, a hardwood floor refinishing contractor can usually finish a buffing and coating project in one day for half the cost of a sand and finish the job. This is a significant amount of money that can be used for better things than fixing damaged wood planks.

“Consider buffing and coating the periodical beauty treatment you give your hardwood floors,” says Keith Allman. “Secure professional wood floor buff and coat services from a professional company and devise a maintenance plan that suits your needs. Most top layers lose their luster after 3 to 5 year, but high-traffic areas may need to have their top layer replaced on a yearly basis. Areas that get less use, such as guest rooms, may wait for about 10 years before getting their own beauty treatment.”

Keith Allman also advises Tampa homeowners not to wait until they can see the damage. Waiting is a mistake and a risky strategy, since, once the damage is evident, it may be too late for a simple buff and coat treatment. The idea is to keep the wood planks well protected in order to avoid expensive repairs down the road.
