If your hardwood floors contain light surface scratches or are they are looking dull, then a thorough cleaning and one topcoat of finish may be all that’s needed to bring your floors back to life.

Having to clean every drawer, cupboard, ceiling fan, light fixture, etc., is a daunting task. ***We have eliminated the nightmare!***  By using the best dust extraction system on the market we have dramatically reduced the amount of dust and improved the overall quality of your floor. We were the first company in northeast Wisconsin to offer the Atomic Dust Containment System. This unit removes airborne sanding dust  from your home via a powerful, self-contained vacuum system that resides in a trailer outside your home. This creates a cleaner, healthier environment and eliminates airborne dust that may settle back into the finish.  ***Don't settle...or the dust will!*** |   | ## [![request-a-quote](https://d1n2i0nchws850.cloudfront.net/portals/141157/ade229f3-ffcd-4dc2-a39f-cf56df4224ac-1338809253995/request-a-quote.jpg?v=1338809254.38)](https://cta-service-cms2.hubspot.com/cs/c/?&cta_guid=ade229f3-ffcd-4dc2-a39f-cf56df4224ac&placement_guid=cf810ebc-59e4-4c85-8654-ec124cf4e7c4&portal_id=141157&redirect_url=/HtakSx5SkV0YvJuSQ9zYSnxRR9JSUwPPfSuB%2BRwXGWYsrWDqxMrITWHwCiW4gMZSHw41lxBD7MhdZPE4CPuiQ%3D%3D&iv=EaeNj8n3bfY%3D&hsutk=569ce5d5e36867f1f266ffa3fb588a35&canon=) ## Refinishing Trends [When to refinish your hardwood floor.](https://www.ralphshardwood.com/blog-0/bid/145829/When-to-refinish-your-hardwood-floor) [Using Color to Add Personality to Your Hardwood Flooring.](https://www.ralphshardwood.com/blog-0/bid/182960/Using-Color-to-Add-Personality-to-Your-Hardwood-Flooring) [Finishing by Ralph's Hardwood, the final statement in excellence.](https://www.ralphshardwood.com/blog-0/bid/182961/Finishing-by-Ralph-s-Hardwood-the-final-statement-in-excellence)   ## No Fuss No Dust Watch the video of our dustless containment system in action.
