Phase 1
The Settlement School, founded in 1908, as the music program at the
College Settlement, a typical turn-of-the-century settlement house
offering a variety of services to newly arrived immigrant families
in the Southwark section of South Philadelphia. It is an
acknowledged leader in the national community school movement and,
with more than 15,000 students, is the largest school of its kind in
America with 6 different facilities.
The purpose of phase 1 is to prepare, by softening, the existing
finish to receive a coat of urethane. In this particular
example, the chemical process with abrasion lightened this floor by
removing years of dirt and grease buildup, along areas of
failing urethane.

After
Needless to say, the customer was pleased with the service and
the finish. There was no disruption to their schedule.
The refinishing cost less than 1/2 of the price of sanding, and they
shouldn't have to refinish their floors for another 5-8 years.
We currently are preparing to do another building for this customer. |
