A clear page for hardwood floor cleaning limits.
Hardwood floor cleaning should be described as routine professional cleaning for surface soil, residue, and everyday buildup when the existing finish and condition are appropriate.
This service page clearly avoids implying sanding, refinishing, structural repair, or deep scratch removal.

Hardwood floor FAQ
Questions customers often ask first.
Is this the same as refinishing?
No. This service information describes routine cleaning only. Sanding, refinishing, structural repair, and deep scratch removal are separate needs.
Can cleaning remove deep scratches?
Routine cleaning should not be presented as deep scratch removal. Scratches, worn finish, and damage may need a different service.
Does the floor finish matter?
Yes. The existing finish and floor condition can affect whether cleaning is appropriate and what guidance Bob gives.
What should I mention when scheduling?
Mention worn areas, residue, water concerns, prior products, and any known floor finish details if available.
