Dust-Contained Hardwood Floor Refinishing
Cleaner prep, better control, less disruption to your home.
We use Lagler professional sanding equipment on every refinishing job because it lets us work more cleanly, more precisely, and with tighter control than standard sanding machines.
The equipment is designed specifically for hardwood floors and includes integrated dust-collection systems that capture dust as sanding is happening instead of allowing it to spread through the home.
Lagler Professional Training
Certified to run dust-contained systems the right way.
Jim was hand selected by Lagler North America's President to travel to Germany and complete Lagler's professional training course to ensure every machine is set up, balanced, and maintained for optimal dust capture and floor flatness. Certification isn't required to own the tools, but it proves we follow the exact process the manufacturer recommends.
- Hands-on instruction with Lagler technical trainers.
- Proper hose management for maximum vacuum efficiency.
- Maintenance and calibration steps that keep the equipment performing like new.
What to Expect from Dust-Contained Sanding
Dust controlled, not dust free, and that difference matters.
No sanding process is completely dust-free, but professional dust-contained equipment significantly reduces the amount of airborne dust compared to older or rental machines.
Most sanding dust is collected directly at the machine and contained before it can travel to other areas of the house. This results in a noticeably cleaner work environment during the refinishing process and a quicker cleanup at the end of each day.
- Cleaner transition areas with less dust drifting into adjacent rooms.
- Daily vacuuming keeps the project neat for families who remain in the home.
Why Professional Equipment Matters
Lagler & Bona floor sanding machines combined with premium ceramic abrasives give us control over every pass.
Using high-quality sanding equipment is about control and consistency. It allows us to move deliberately through each cut without going too deep or leaving chatter in the floor.
- Remove old finishes efficiently without damaging the wood.
- Keep floors flatter and more even across open areas.
- Blend edges and field sanding more seamlessly.
- Prepare the surface properly so the finish adheres and wears as it should.
Cleaner Air, Cleaner Jobsite
Capturing dust at the source keeps the rest of your house calm.
Fine dust likes to travel through doorways, vents, and stairwells. Keeping it connected to our vacuums reduces how much ends up on furniture or freshly painted trim.
- Less dust settling on furniture and surfaces.
- Less tracking of debris through the home.
- A more controlled work area from start to finish.
Equipment Chosen for Long-Term Results
The right tools exist to protect your floors, so we use them.
Lagler equipment has been used by professional flooring contractors for decades and is widely regarded as a standard in the industry. We use it because it allows us to focus on precision, consistency, and doing the job correctly, not because it is the fastest option.
Good results start with proper preparation, and proper preparation starts with the right tools.
