Bona US, the world leader in hardwood floor care and maintenance since 1919, today announced the launch of the Bona Certified Craftsman Program. Additionally, Bona is launching the industry's first hassle-free promise to homeowners, the Bona Certified Craftsman Five Star Advantage.
The Bona Certified Craftsman Program (BCCP) is comprised of a trusted network of hardwood flooring experts that deliver outstanding results in both craftsmanship and customer service. These top level professionals have used the Bona product system for years and are hand-picked, proven, trained and certified by Bona. The Bona training process is an ongoing benefit to these professionals so that they can stay up-to-date on best practices in the industry and ensure the most beautiful and durable results possible for hardwood floors. A Bona Certified Craftsman can refinish an average of 700 square feet in three days, producing beautiful results without much of a disruption to the homeowner.
"Many consumers perceive the process of refinishing or installing hardwood floors to be tedious, inconvenient and messy. We've known for years that doesn't have to be the case," said Chad Nordhagen, director of marketing, BonaUS. "In fact, Bona products and our Bona Certified Craftsmen make the refinishing process an easy, worry-free experience. The best part is that the end result is beautiful, family-friendly, durable hardwood floors."
The BCCP Five Star Advantage is rooted in five key tenets to empower consumers with the right tools and knowledge for a hardwood floor refinishing or installation process that minimizes disruption and results in beautiful, durable hardwood floors.
The BCCP Five Star Advantage gives consumers the power of knowledge that they are receiving the best-of-the-best in floor care and maintenance. The five key tenets of the BCCP Five Star Advantage are:
- Durable & Beautiful Finishes: Bona water-based finishes dry 3-4 times faster than other products and can have most homeowners living in their home during the refinishing process.
- Insured, Trained and Trusted: Every BCCP is required to be insured and to participate in Bona's rigorous training regimen to make sure every floor is done right every time.
- Clean Air. No Dust.: Bona's Dust Containment system generates 99.8% less dust in the air than the traditional sanding process, making the air safer to breathe and the clean-up after the process a breeze.
- Back on Your Floor Quicker: Quickly diminishing odor from Bona finishes give homeowners quick and easy access to their homes with minimal disruption. Most homeowners can stay in their home during the finishing process and be back on their floors (with socks) in a matter of hours.
- Lifetime Support: For the life of the floors, Bona has the products and services that will support homeowners in maintaining beautiful floors for a lifetime.
"I'm grateful to be a member of this elite class of hardwood floor craftsman," said Kevin Evans, president, Rock Solid Hardwoods. "The BCCP Five Star Advantage is like an insurance policy for homeowners. They will know that by using a Bona Certified Craftsman with the Five Star Advantage the only result for them will be beautiful, durable hardwood floors."
