FREQUENT QUESTIONS
Arizona Hardwood Flooring Services installs, refinishes, and restores hardwood flooring for many customers across central Arizona. Here are some of the common questions we are asked.
We care deeply about the environment. Our environmentally-safe water-based finishes, our dust-containment systems, and our electric refinishing process treat the environment with respect – and keep your home a safe and healthy place. With Arizona Hardwood Flooring Services on the job, you won’t need to worry about your family breathing in dangerous chemicals, dust, or toxic exhaust fumes.
We have families too. We understand that you live in your home, and shouldn’t have to leave it for days just to get your floors refinished. Our refinishing process may take up to a few days, but you can stay in your home. You can even walk on the floors within a few hours of each stage. Our caring technicians can even time the process to fit around your schedule – just ask!
The smell of hardwood floor finish comes from VOCs, or Volatile Organic Compounds. VOCs are nasty carbon-based chemicals that easily evaporate at room temperature – including xylene, toluene, and even formaldehyde. Oil-based finishes are full of VOCs, and these chemicals continue to fill your house for months, even years after refinishing. Arizona Hardwood Flooring Services recommends environmentally friendly, water-based finishes. Our preferred finishes are so safe that they’ve been certified by GreenGuard to be used in schools. While there is a slight odor, it is much less than an oil-based finish and perfectly safe for people and pets.
We use only the finest in dust collection systems to minimize dust in your home. It works so well that we don’t bother wearing dust masks. No process is 100% dust-free, but we find most customers only need a light cleaning after everything is finished.

Overall a fantastic experience. They adhered exactly to the quoted timeline, and took time to talk through cleaning and preventing wear-and-tear. The attitude, quality of work, and professional nature of the whole team left me impressed.
We appreciated how much pride their employees took in the work – so much so that we had them come back two years later to lay new flooring, stained to match their previous job. You can’t tell where the old ends and the new begins!
