Will the NHance process work on any wood floor?

Yes! There are over 22 species of wood used in residential and commercial flooring applications. The NHance Revolutionary Wood Renewal System is compatible with every type of wood floor and every type of wood floor finish. ^Top

How long does the NHance finish last?

The longevity of your floors' finish is dependent on several factors including floor traffic, pets, and your practice of floor maintenance. As far as protection from wear, you can expect many years of protection and durability. Keep in mind that surface scratches are part of normal wear on your floors' finish. These can start becoming noticeable in as little as two years. If surface scratches are a concern, we suggest our NHance Deep Clean and Recoat process. Remember, the better you protect your floor from damage, the longer your finish will stay beautiful. ^Top

Can the NHance Revolutionary Wood Renewal system work on a floor that has been hidden under a wall-to-wall carpet?

Yes, we frequently renew floors that have been covered with wall to wall carpet. Keep in mind that all floors are not candidates for the NHance process. Ask your NHance CWRS (Certified Wood Renewal Specialist) for additional information. ^Top

Does the NHance process work on cabinets?

Yes, NHance is ideal for cabinets and a great alternative to the high cost of cabinet replacement or refacing. We can bring back the shine, shield and luster to any wood surface. ^Top

I have deep scratches and dings in my floors. Can NHance remove those imperfections?

The NHance proprietary process can repair and camouflage defects in your wood surfaces. The only way to totally remove imperfections is to sand the surface of the wood. This is not dust free, odor free nor convenient. ^Top

How long will it take?

Usually your NHance CWRS (Certified Wood Renewal Specialist) is in and out of your home or office usually in a day. In most cases you will have use of your floor within a few hours. Ask your NHance representative for details. ^Top

Will the NHance process work on laminate flooring?

No, NHance specializes in renewing the shine, shield and luster on all wood surfaces. A laminate floor is simply a photograph glued to a substrate with a plasticized coating. They can not be renewed with the NHance process. ^Top

Will the NHance process work on Pre-Finished flooring?

We love Pre-Finished or Factory Finished floors. Our process is ideal for this type of flooring. ^Top

With the NHance process can I change the color of my floors or cabinets?

Yes, with our revolutionary process we can change the color of your floors or cabinets. With our Revolutionary "Touchless Color Change" process we can do dramatic color change on your wood cabinets. Ask your NHance CWRS (Certified Wood Renewal Specialist) for more details about changing the color of your wood surfaces. ^Top

Will the NHance process work on pastel (white wash) finishes?

Yes, we can restore worn areas, correct ambering (yellowing), and renew and bring back the luster to your pastel finishes. ^Top

Does NHance provide In Home Estimates?

Yes, it is important that we understand the scope of work as well as determine what your expectations are. During the estimate, we also provide advice and information on proper wood care.

After the NHance process is complete how do I protect my new finish?

Your NHance CWRS (Certified Wood Renewal Specialist) will talk to you about proper care and maintenance of your new NHance finish. Your NHance CWRS will review cleaning instructions, use of furniture pads, pet instructions and traffic on your new NHance finish. ^Top

I have worn and stained areas from my Pet, can NHance help?

In most cases. Many people do not understand that the pads of dog's feet are like sandpaper. Every time your dog goes from a dead stop to a full run he/she is sanding the surface of your floor with their paws. The NHance finish is self leveling and will fill in surface scratches that are created by household pets. Pets must remain off of your new NHance finish for a specific amount of time. Ask your CWRS for additional information. ^Top
