Quick estimate
Is your floor worth saving?
Most of the time, yes. A dull, scratched floor rarely needs to be torn out. The wood underneath is usually in good shape and just needs to be sanded and finished again.

The process
How a refinish works
We look at the floor
Text us a few photos or we come see it in person. Estimate visits run from 7 am to 6 pm, and you get a clear price for the job.
Sanding down to clean wood
The old finish, scratches and gray wear come off. We sand until the floor is bare, even and ready for a new finish.
Filling and prep
Gaps, nail holes and small dents get filled, then the floor is sanded smooth again so the finish goes on clean.
Stain, if you want a new color
Keep the natural tone of the wood or pick a darker, warmer color. The stain goes on before any finish.
Finish, coat by coat
Water-based finish goes on edge to edge, coat by coat. We use quality products like Bona Traffic, made for heavy foot traffic.

FAQ
Questions homeowners ask us
Should I refinish or replace my hardwood floors?
If your floor is solid hardwood and the boards are still sound, refinishing usually makes more sense than replacing. We sand off the worn finish, scratches and gray wear and put a new finish on the same wood. Send us photos or have us look in person and we will tell you honestly what your floor needs.
Can you change the color of my floors?
Yes. After sanding, we can stain the floor a new color before the finish goes on, or keep the natural tone of the wood. We go over the options with you at the estimate.
What kind of finish do you use?
We use water-based finishes, including Bona Traffic, a finish made for heavy foot traffic. Quality above all: we never cut corners on products to lower the price.
Do you refinish stairs too?
Yes. We sand and refinish stair treads and landings, on their own or together with your floors, natural or stained.
