Question 1

How long does it take for a newly polished timber floor to cure?

Accepted Answer

While you can typically walk on your new floors in socks within 24 to 48 hours, full curing of the polyurethane can take up to 7 to 14 days. Avoid placing heavy furniture or rugs during this time.

Question 2

How should I clean my newly finished hardwood floors?

Accepted Answer

Use a dry microfiber mop for daily dusting. For damp cleaning, use a PH-neutral wood floor cleaner and avoid excessive water, steam mops, or harsh abrasive chemicals to protect the finish.

Question 3

Are minor imperfections normal on a newly sanded floor?

Accepted Answer

Yes, minor imperfections such as small dust particles settling in the final coat are normal in a residential environment and will typically wear away naturally with standard foot traffic.
