dumb question...finished or unfinished?

9 years ago

ok I am going to ask a dumb question about my hardwood floors. They are the original wood floors in our house but how do I know if they are finished or unfinished? They are not in perfect condition with a few small cracks or spaces between a few planks. We have no plans to refinish them at the moment...I would just like to know exactly the best way to clean them. thanks for any help

99.9% sure they will be finished. But crazy things happen.
Simplest way for me to be 100% sure is to take a pic for me.
