Hardwood Floor Recoating in Clayton, NC
Clayton is where 12th And Oak Floor Co. is based and where our showroom is located. Homeowners in Flowers Plantation, Cooper's Branch, and downtown Clayton come to us when their hardwood has lost its sheen but the wood is still in good shape. A screen and recoat with Bona Traffic HD is the most cost-effective way to restore the floor without the disruption of full refinishing.
As Johnston County's only Bona Certified Craftsman flooring contractor, we assess every floor honestly and recommend recoating only when it is the right service. If your floors need more, we tell you that at the assessment, not after work has started.
Fast turnaround.
Most screen and recoat jobs in Clayton are completed within six hours. Light traffic within 24 hours, full use in 3 days.
Significant cost savings.
Recoating starts at $2.00 per square foot, a fraction of the cost of full refinishing. No sanding to bare wood means less time and less labor.
Bona Traffic HD finish.
We use Bona Traffic HD exclusively. The hardest water-based finish on the market, GREENGUARD certified, 3-day cure. Your floor will hold up far longer than a standard recoat product.
Even sheen, wall to wall.
A screen and recoat restores a uniform finish across the entire surface. Traffic lanes that have gone dull come back to match the rest of the floor.

What Our Customers Say
“The team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. They seamlessly matched the new stairs to my existing hardwood floors. You cannot tell where one ends and the other begins.”
Tiffany Arthur
“My husband and I recently decided to redo our 23-year-old wood floors. I was hesitant as they seemed far beyond repair. The first night we went to look at the floors we were blown away. They look absolutely gorgeous -- better than the day they were installed.”
Kelli Linkous
“Izral and his crew did an amazing job with the floors in our new to us house! We had our entire downstairs redone -- existing hardwood refinished, new hardwood put down, and everything stained to match. Izral was incredibly knowledgeable and easy to work with throughout the whole process.”

Yes. Our showroom at 113 State Ave #103 in Clayton is open Monday through Friday by appointment. You can see hardwood samples and finish examples in person. For recoating, the service does not change the stain color, so a showroom visit is optional, but many Clayton homeowners come in to meet us and discuss the floor before scheduling.
A screen and recoat, also called a buff and coat or hardwood floor recoating, is the process of applying a fresh layer of finish over your existing floor without sanding down to bare wood. We lightly abrade the current finish using a buffer and screen pad to create adhesion, then apply one to two coats of Bona Traffic HD. It is the right service when the finish is worn but the wood is still in good condition.
Most screen and recoat jobs are completed within six hours. Your floors are ready for light foot traffic within 24 hours and back to full use within 3 days with Bona Traffic HD.
Refinishing sands the floor down to bare wood and allows a complete stain color change and full surface restoration. Recoating adds a new topcoat without sanding to bare wood. Recoating is faster and less expensive, but it cannot change the stain color or address damage that has penetrated the wood itself. We assess which option is right during the free in-home visit.
Yes. Engineered hardwood can be recoated using the same screen and recoat process as solid hardwood, as long as the existing finish is worn but intact and the surface is not damaged. Recoating is a preferred maintenance strategy for engineered floors because they have a thinner wear layer that should not be sanded repeatedly.
We use Bona Traffic HD exclusively for recoating. It is the hardest water-based finish on the market, GREENGUARD certified for indoor air quality, and cures in 3 days. Your refreshed floor will hold up to daily life far longer than a standard recoat product.
