Annual Screening, Recoating, and Full Refinishing to Keep Your Gym Floor Looking Its Best
At AG Sports, we help schools, universities, and recreation facilities across Indiana keep their hardwood gym floors in top condition. Whether you need your floor screened and recoated or completely sanded and refinished, we provide high-quality results that protect your investment with minimum downtime. From Indianapolis to Fort Wayne, Bloomington, and beyond, our team delivers dependable refinishing services tailored to your schedule, ensuring your facility looks its best and is ready for the next game.
A properly maintained gym floor is about more than just appearance. It directly affects performance and safety. Regular refinishing protects your hardwood from wear, moisture, and daily use. It also helps athletes maintain consistent traction and keeps your court lines, colors, and logos clear and vibrant.
Benefits of routine refinishing:
• Safer, more consistent playing surface
• Protection against long-term wood damage
• Bright, professional appearance for your facility
• Longer floor life
An annual screen and recoat is the best way to keep your gym floor performing like new. This process removes light scuffs and surface wear before applying a fresh finish coat. Because we use water-based finishes, many projects can be completed in just a few days, often playable again within 24 hours. Regular maintenance helps prevent deeper damage, reduces downtime, and keeps your floor game-ready all year.
When a gym floor shows deep scratches, worn lines, or finish buildup, a complete refinish restores it from the ground up. We sand the surface down to bare wood, repair imperfections, apply new sealers, and repaint all game lines and logos before applying a fresh finish. This process typically takes place every 5–10 years, depending on usage and maintenance history. The result is a floor that looks brand new, with improved traction and shine that lasts for seasons to come.
AG Sports uses AquaChoice Sport B Mach One, a professional-grade water-based finish engineered specifically for gymnasium floors. This high-performance system is designed to deliver the perfect balance of durability, clarity, and speed, ideal for hardwood courts that require both aesthetic appeal and superior performance.
Unlike traditional oil-based products, AquaChoice Sport B Mach One produces no VOCs, has minimal odor, and won’t discolor painted game lines. It provides a crystal-clear surface that keeps whites, yellows, and team logos vibrant season after season.

How often should a gym floor be screened and recoated?
Most facilities schedule annual screenings and recoatings to maintain the surface and avoid more extensive refinishing work.
How long does a refinishing project take?
A screen and recoat can often be completed in 1–2 days. A full sand and refinish typically takes 5–7 days, depending on the size, humidity, and drying times.
Are water-based finishes durable enough for high-use gyms?
Yes. Water-based finishes create a harder surface than oil-based products, making them ideal for busy athletic facilities.
When should a full sand and refinish be done?
Most gyms require full refinishing every 5–10 years, depending on traffic, cleaning practices, and climate conditions.
