Hardwood Floor Refinishing. 
Wood floors can last generations, but the finish on them won’t. Fully refinishing a floor generally involves sanding it down to bare wood, removing the whole top layer of the grain, then re-staining and re-glossing. However, this can be done just a few times in a floor’s lifetime before too much of the surface wood is gone, so avoid sanding whenever possible. If the gloss layer is worn out but the stain is still in good shape, screen the floor instead; this sanding alternative removes only the gloss so you can replace it.
