Default Hardwood floor refinishing question

Any experts out there?

We had a small reno done in the house and the contractor matted the floor and taped it down to prevent damage to the hard wood. Unfortunately after two weeks when the tape was pulled up it also pulled up the finish.

Question is can you reasonably buff the floor and put new coating on it and still look good or does one need to completely strip, sand, stain and recost the whole floor?

I know nothing of hardwood floors.
