Restaining Floors
We stained our pine sub-floors with Jacobean Minwax and then polyurethan. The wear and tear is horrible and although we should probably lift the floors and put down new … we would like to avoid it for another 5 – 10 years. What options do we have? Can we sand and then restain/poly? Help.

You can sand the floors and put down a new layer of Poly.
oil based poly lasts longer than water based, do not cheap out on the quality of the poly .
seal off the rooms that need to be sanded, the dust will get everywhere; and hire this job out, it is a thankless job to do.

I used Inti Interior Design and Floors for similar work on my Brownstone Floor. Talk to Carlos, his cell number is 646-418-0925. They do excellent work with reasonable pricing.
Best of luck.
