Which finish is right for your hardwood floors?

Polyurethane hardwood floor finishes are like a coat of armour, protecting the wood below from scratches and wear and tear of everyday use.

We will help determine which sealer and finish combination is best for your hardwood floors and personal preferences.

Oil-based sealer and finish

Oil-based sealer and finish give your hardwood floors a traditional, golden/amber appearance. For many, this is the ideal color hardwood floors should be.

Oil-based sealer and finish suits the character of older homes. For centuries, shellacs, varnishes, lacquers, and oils have been used to create a warm, deep, rich appearance to highlight fine woodwork. The same applies for hardwood floors.

Water-based sealer and finish

Water-based sealer and finish is the modern alternative to oil-based products. While oil-based sealer and finish have their limitations with appearance and sheen options, water-based sealer and finish have a wider range of choices.

With multiple sealer options that determine the shade of your floor, and finishes with sheen options from ultra-matte, satin, and semi-gloss, you will have more freedom and creativity in choosing the final appearance of your hardwood floor. Water-based products are very low odour, provide exceptional durability, and cure faster, getting you back to regular living quickly.
