Stripping a floor is usually done if the current finish on the floor is ruined or there are many coats of finish on it. Stripping it gets rid of all of the old coats of finish for a fresh look.

You may want to strip a floor in preparation for refinishing hardwood floors. You can also strip floors to put another flooring on top like tiles, to ensure a good seal.

One reason you may want to strip a floor is if you have an older or antique wood floor that you don't want to sand. Stripping it allows you to preserve the character and originality of the floor.
