Depending on the severity of the sealant substance, the drying process, the size of the building area, etc., you may not be able to place anything on the flooring for up to three weeks. Due to a consistent increase in humidity in some areas, the process may take much longer than anticipated. Before applying or setting anything on newly treated wood floors, it is generally recommended to wait at least a few weeks. You can also request a timetable from the construction managers including the surface drying time frame and other variables.
