Revitalize your hardwood floors in Raleigh with True Clean’s affordable screen & recoat service—the smart, low-dust alternative to full sanding that homeowners across Cary, Durham, Chapel Hill, Wake Forest, Morrisville, Apex, Greensboro, Winston Salem, Greenville, Wilson, and New Bern trust for lasting shine.
Affordable Alternative to Sanding: Screen & Recoat Solutions for Raleigh’s Hardwood Homes
When the steamy summer humidity rolls in from the Cape Fear River or the icy winter winds sweep through Cameron Village and Oakwood, your hardwood floors can show every scratch, ding, and dull patch. True Clean’s signature Screen & Recoat process offers Triangle-Focused Hardwood Wisdom: Raleigh/Durham-specific tips you won’t find elsewhere. Whether you live steps from Pullen Park, near Crabtree Valley Mall, or in the heart of Downtown Cary’s Academy Street district, our team delivers a cost-effective refresh that preserves the character of your original wood.
Full sanding can take days, kick up clouds of contaminant-laden dust, and cost 40% more than our alternative method. By lightly abrading the existing finish and applying a fresh coat of industrial-grade sealant, we revive your floors 70% faster—often in a single workday. That’s why homeowners near Bond Park in Cary, the American Tobacco Historic District in Durham, and Franklin Street in Chapel Hill choose True Clean for their seasonal floor tune-ups.
Our process also addresses common seasonal challenges. In spring, pollen and riverfront moisture near Wake Forest’s Historic Old Town can sear into worn finishes. In autumn, the North Carolina State Fair traffic around the State Capitol brings sand and grit indoors. Our Dust-Free Revolution containment system seals off your living areas—no drywall or duct tape required—so you can host holiday gatherings in Morrisville’s Park West or Apex’s Jordan Lake shoreline communities without interruption.
And if you’ve attempted a DIY wax repair only to find a cloudy, sticky mess—True Clean’s Wax Removal Rescue Team restores clarity in one visit. Using our proven solvent blend and buffing equipment, we strip away unwanted residues, preparing your floor for a flawless recoat. Take advantage of our 365-Day Shine Guarantee: we back every buff with a year-long glow warranty so you can relax, knowing your investment is protected.

What is Screen & Recoat and How It Works
Screen & Recoat is a minimally invasive hardwood refinishing technique that breathes new life into existing finishes without the need for full-depth sanding. At True Clean, we follow a proven four-step protocol honed over 20 Years of NC Floor Secrets—decades of sanding, staining, and saving floors across Greenville’s River Park North, Wilson’s Historic District, and New Bern’s Colonial Uptown.
- 1. Inspection & Prep: Our technicians inspect every plank, identifying high-traffic wear zones from Southpoint Mall in Durham to Apex’s Beaver Creek neighborhood. We then move furniture, protect baseboards, and sweep away loose debris.
- 2. Dust-Free Buffing: Using our proprietary containment system, we buff the existing finish with a fine-grit pad. This “screening” opens the wood pores, removes surface scuffs, and creates a perfect bonding profile—without the airborne dust you’d see with traditional sanding.
- 3. Stain & Tint (Optional): Homeowners seeking a slight color refresh—popular near Crabtree Valley’s upscale shopping or Cary’s trendy Downtown—can choose our customized tinting service. We match perfect shades, from honey oak to rich mahogany, leveraging local insights on natural light and humidity.
- 4. Recoat Application: We apply two to three coats of our advanced, low-VOC polyurethane. Each coat dries quickly, allowing foot traffic within hours and full cure in just 24–48 hours. You’ll enjoy hassle-free refinishing, whether you live near Raleigh’s North Hills or Chapel Hill’s Carrboro ArtsCenter.
True Clean’s Dust-Free Revolution containment isn’t just marketing—it’s our commitment to leaving your home livable. No need to rent hotel rooms or seal off hallways; we work neatly in any layout, from cozy Wilson bungalows to sprawling Morrisville open-concept estates. And because we’re your true local experts, we factor in Raleigh’s summer humidity and winter shrinkage gaps, advising on optimal scheduling around the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival in Durham or Raleigh’s annual SPARKcon arts event.
Enjoy our 365-Day Shine Guarantee: if your floor finish shows unexpected wear within a year, we’ll buff and recoat it at no additional cost. That’s confidence backed by experience and a fixture in our client relationships from Greenville to Winston Salem.
Why Screen & Recoat Beats Full Sanding Every Time
Choosing between a full sand-down and a screen & recoat can feel daunting—but the numbers speak for themselves. Our Screen & Recoat Specialists quantify benefits: you save up to 40% on cost, reclaim your space 70% faster, and dodge weeks of airborne dust. Here’s how True Clean’s method outperforms traditional sanding:
- Cost Efficiency: By targeting the finish rather than the wood substrate, we reduce material and labor expenses. Families in Downtown Cary and North Hills Raleigh enjoy premium results for a fraction of full-sand budgets.
- Time Savings: Most jobs finish in a single day, compared to multi-day sanding projects. Perfect for busy professionals near Franklin Street events or weekend hostesses in Oakwood.
- Minimal Disruption: Our Dust-Free Revolution keeps your home clean. No plastic sheeting stretched across entire floors—just a quick, contained operation that respects your lifestyle in Bond Park or the American Tobacco District.
- Preserve Wood Character: Full sanding can erase decades of patina, exposing wood to color inconsistencies. Screening conserves the unique character of each plank, valued by homeowners in historic Old Town Wake Forest and Greenville’s Magnolia Street.
- Environmentally Friendly: Low-VOC sealants and dust containment minimize environmental impact. Eco-conscious residents near Jordan Lake in Apex and Wilson’s Tar River appreciate our sustainable approach.
- Seasonal Resilience: Screen & Recoat helps guard against coastal humidity warping and winter gaps. We recommend scheduling refinishing after Raleigh’s rainy spring or before winter’s first freeze to maintain plank stability.
- Local Expertise: Triangle-Focused Hardwood Wisdom guides every step. We know how afternoon sunshine filters through Pullen Park’s canopy, how winter breezes chill Morrisville condos, and how spring pollen affects Cary homes. These regional insights ensure flawless, long-lasting finishes.
Don’t let budget constraints or busy schedules force you into full sanding. Compare True Clean’s streamlined, dust-free approach to traditional refinishing and discover why “Affordable Alternative to Sanding Floors” isn’t just a slogan—it’s a better way to restore your home.
