Hardwood flooring is made from a single piece of wood, while engineered hardwood is made from layers of wood bonded together. Engineered hardwood is more resistant to moisture and can be a better option for areas like basements.
To sand and finish hardwood floors with a natural finish, it is typically a 3-day process. After the initial sanding, we apply one coat of polyurethan each day - equally 3 coats.
Under normal circumstances, the drying process is about 8 hours (using oil-base polyurethane) for the floors to be dry to the touch. If using a water-base polyurethane, it is usually a 3-4 hour drying time between coats.
To maintain your new hardwood floor, regularly sweep or vacuum to remove dirt and debris, and use a damp mop with a suitable hardwood floor cleaner (we recommend Bona Hardwood Floor mop kits) to keep them looking their best. click here for more info: Maintenance Tips
This could be anywhere between 24-48 hours for the furniture to be "gently" placed back in your newly finished room. Though the floors will be dry to the touch, it generally takes a full week for the floors to completely "cure". We recommend that you never slide or drag any furniture across the newly finished floor. It should always be "placed gently" on the new floor. Any furniture like dining room chairs or ottomans - which could be slid or moved frequently - should always have felt on the bottoms of the legs to prevent possible scratches.
