What Is Hardwood Floor Refinishing?
Transform worn, scratched, or faded hardwood floors back to like-new condition
Bring Your Floors Back to Life
Hardwood floor refinishing is the process of removing the old finish, sanding down the wood surface, and applying new stain and protective coatings. This process removes scratches, dents, and discoloration while revealing the beautiful wood grain underneath.
Unlike replacing your floors entirely, refinishing preserves your existing hardwood while restoring its original luster. Most hardwood floors can be refinished 4-7 times over their lifetime, making refinishing a cost-effective way to maintain your investment.
Our refinishing process uses professional-grade equipment and NWFA-certified techniques to ensure superior results. We can match existing stain colors, create custom blends, or help you choose a completely new look for your space.
Why Refinish Your Hardwood Floors?
Multiple advantages that make refinishing the smart choice
Cost-Effective
Refinishing costs 60-70% less than replacing your floors entirely, while delivering comparable results and extending their lifespan by 10-15 years.
Like-New Appearance
Remove years of wear, scratches, and discoloration. Your floors will look brand new with a smooth, glossy finish that highlights the natural beauty of the wood.
Increased Durability
New protective coatings seal and protect your floors from moisture, stains, and daily wear. Modern finishes provide superior resistance and easier maintenance.
Boost Home Value
Beautiful hardwood floors are a major selling point. Refinished floors can increase your home's value and appeal to potential buyers.
Customize Your Look
Choose from dozens of stain colors to match your décor. Go lighter, darker, or try trending gray tones to give your space a fresh, modern look.
Eco-Friendly Choice
Refinishing preserves existing materials and reduces waste. It's the sustainable option that's better for the environment than replacement.
How Hardwood Floor Refinishing Works
Professional 5-step process for flawless results
Inspection & Preparation
We assess your floors' condition, identify any damage, and prepare the space. Furniture is moved and the area is sealed to contain dust.
Sanding
Using professional-grade equipment, we sand away the old finish and surface imperfections. Multiple grits create a smooth, even surface ready for staining.
Staining
We apply your chosen stain color evenly across the entire floor. Custom color matching available to blend with existing floors or create your desired look.
Finishing Coats
Multiple coats of high-quality polyurethane or oil-based finish are applied. Each coat is allowed to dry completely before the next application.
Final Inspection
We inspect every square inch to ensure a flawless finish. The space is thoroughly cleaned and your furniture is returned to its original placement.
