Pre Finished Hardwood

Quick, less mess, and beautiful

What Is Pre-Finished Hardwood?

Pre-finished hardwood flooring has become increasingly popular due to advancements in manufacturing technology, offering improved style, durability, and performance. Unlike site-finished hardwood, prefinished wood flooring comes factory-finished and ready for immediate installation.

This means:

• The floorboards are highly durable thanks to advanced aluminum oxide protective coatings.
• Installation is faster and cleaner, and furniture can typically be placed back immediately after completion.

While prefinished hardwood may offer fewer custom stain options compared to site-finished floors, design elements such as borders and medallions can still be incorporated for a customized look.

Pre-Finished Flooring Means Durable Flooring

When hardwood is factory-finished, manufacturers use advanced commercial processes in controlled environments to apply highly durable sealers. These finishes often include aluminum oxide or similar compounds embedded in a UV-cured urethane coating, creating an extremely hard and protective surface.

In many cases, pre-finished hardwood flooring offers a tougher finish than site-applied coatings. The result is enhanced durability, longer-lasting protection, and stronger manufacturer warranties — often ranging from 5 to 25 years, compared to typical site-applied finishes.

Unlike site-finished hardwood, pre-finished hardwood flooring installation does not require on-site sanding or staining. Once the planks are installed, your floors are ready for immediate use — allowing you to walk on them, place furniture, and enjoy your space with minimal downtime and significantly less mess.

Easier Floor Maintenance

The durable factory finish on pre-finished hardwood flooring makes it easier to maintain over time. These floors are designed to resist stains, scratches, and everyday wear from normal household activity.

While refinishing prefinished hardwood can be more labor-intensive due to the strength of the factory-applied finish, it is typically not required for many years. In the event of damage, repairs may involve replacing the affected boards or refinishing the entire floor, depending on the extent of wear.
