Professional Screening and Recoating

If your hardwood floors are scratched, dull, or worn, Big Al’s offers professional wood floor refinishing in Baltimore.

Our expert refinishing services restore the natural beauty of your hardwood floors while protecting them for years to come. Whether you’re a homeowner or business owner, we deliver high-end results with a focus on quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail.

​

At Big Al’s, we specialize in screening and recoating hardwood floors. Using proven techniques and professional-grade equipment, we restore your floor's elegance.

Our Wood Floor Refinishing Process

Clean & Prep
The floor is thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, oils, and residue, ensuring proper adhesion for the new finish.

​

Screening
The existing finish is lightly abraded using a floor buffer and screening pads to create a smooth, dull surface without removing wood.

​

Vacuum & Tack
All dust and debris are carefully removed using commercial vacuums and tack methods to leave the floor completely clean.

​

Finishing
A fresh coat of high-quality finish is applied evenly to restore protection, sheen, and appearance.

​

Curing
The floor is allowed to dry and cure properly before foot traffic, and furniture are reintroduced, ensuring long-lasting results.

Your hardwood floors are a major feature of your home. Whether you’re preparing to sell or simply want your floors to look their best, Big Al’s delivers results that elevate your home.

Screening vs. Sanding - What's the Difference?

If your floors are structurally sound but visually worn, screen-and-recoat hardwood floor refinishing is the smart, cost-effective solution. It refreshes your space, protects your investment, and keeps your floors looking beautiful—without the downtime of full sanding.

​

While exact pricing varies based on floor condition and square footage, here’s a general comparison:

  • Screen & Recoat: Typically costs 30–50% less than full sanding

  • Full Sanding & Refinishing: Higher investment due to labor, equipment, and time
     

For homeowners and businesses with well-maintained floors, screening delivers a high-end refresh without the cost of a full refinish.

At Big Al’s, our wood floor screening and refinishing services in Baltimore are designed for clients who value craftsmanship, efficiency, and long-term floor protection. This process restores shine, enhances durability, and protects your hardwood floors without unnecessary sanding.

​

Our refined process includes:

  • Professional cleaning and surface prep

  • Light screening to promote finish adhesion

  • Dust-controlled vacuuming and tack-down

  • Application of premium wood floor finishes

  • Proper curing for long-lasting results

Joy

Your search is over! If you’re looking for quality carpet cleaning look no further. The gentleman who came to my home was not only professional and meticulous but respectful and kind. I have high standard and can be a bit exacting when it comes to cleaning services and Big Al’s was up to the task. Amazing work! I would recommend and will definitely be calling on their services in the future. Check out the clean lines on the stairs not everyone can pull that off. Well done

Dr. Steve Sobelman

The best referrals are from family, friends, and neighbors and Big Al's carpet cleaning was highly recommended by friends and neighbors. We're so glad that we contacted "Big Al" to clean are carpets and furniture. First of all, "He was on time!" Secondly, he provided a thorough explanation of what we could expect from his services. He then provided a very reasonable (less than I thought) price for services. And finally, the end product was terrific. Our carpets are look new and so does our furniture. He even took care of "pet stains" from our long-hair cats. As your neighbor, I can assure you that your expectations will be exceeded.
