Hardwood Floor Refinishing in Ajax, Ontario

Ajax is one of Durham Region’s most established communities — a mix of waterfront properties along Lake
Ontario, mature suburban neighbourhoods, and newer development in the north end. MKZ Hardwood Refinishing serves
all of Ajax with the same professional water-based refinishing process trusted by GTA homeowners. Whether your
home is in Westney Heights, Riverside, or South Ajax near the waterfront, we deliver exceptional results.

Mature Neighbourhoods in Central and South Ajax

Ajax’s older neighbourhoods have homes built in the 1970s through 1990s with solid red oak hardwood floors that
have seen decades of family life. These floors often respond beautifully to a full sand & refinish — the wood is
typically thick enough for multiple sandings and the grain is beautiful when restored properly. We assess every
floor honestly and recommend the right service for the condition of your specific wood.

Newer Builds in Northwest and Northeast Ajax

Ajax’s northern communities have a large stock of newer homes with pre-finished engineered and solid hardwood
installed in the 2000s and 2010s. Many are perfect candidates for a buff & recoat — restoring the finish without
the cost of a full sand. We serve all of Ajax and surrounding Durham Region with the same professional standard.

The MKZ Standard — Water-Based Finish, Professional Dust Control

On every job we use water-based finish only — low odour, fast drying, and more durable than
oil-based alternatives. We apply 3 coats on every refinishing job, with light sanding between
coats for a glass-smooth result. Our professional dust control system keeps your home clean throughout the
entire process.

Ajax FAQs

Homeowners Ask Us

Yes — we serve all of Ajax including South Ajax, Westney Heights, Riverside, Pickering Village, and all other neighbourhoods. We also cover Pickering, Whitby, and surrounding Durham Region.

Not at all. Solid hardwood from the 1980s is typically thick enough to sand 2–3 more times. We'll check the thickness during your free consultation and give you an honest assessment.

A typical Ajax home of around 1,000 sq ft takes 4–5 days — sanding, optional staining, and 3 coats of water-based finish with proper drying between coats. Walk on the floors within 4 hours of the final coat, furniture back in 48–72 hours.
