What floor renovation and refinishing involves
Most work in this category is about restoring a floor you already have. For timber, parquet and engineered wood, that means sanding back worn coatings, filling gaps, staining if wanted, and applying new sealer or polyurethane. Other jobs cover polishing or re-coating concrete and terrazzo, repairing water-damaged boards, and replacing sections that cannot be saved. Petaling Jaya's humidity and older terrace houses in areas like SS2, Section 17 and Taman Tun make moisture checks a routine part of the job.
What to look for
- A site visit before a quote, with a moisture reading on timber floors.
- A written scope that states the number of sanding grits, coats of finish and drying time.
- Dust extraction equipment, since sanding in a lived-in home is messy.
- Photos of finished jobs on the same floor type as yours.
- Clear terms on warranty and who pays for touch-ups.
