Dustless Floor Refinishing
In Arlington our sanders feed a hose to a sealed container, so dust never settles on the mantel or the kids' bunk beds. Walls and trim get blown down before the stain goes on.

Hardwood Floor Refinishing Cost
Arlington floors are sanded, stained and sealed with three coats of poly for one number, $2.50/Sq Ft, and the stain color is never an upcharge. The Victorian beside the Jason Russell House and the Arlington Heights cape see identical per foot pricing, and what we quote is what we invoice.
Hardwood Floor Resanding
Our sanders take a two family's floors down to clean oak, lifting off yellowed poly, the scrapes from dining chairs and the gray lane worn between the front door and the kitchen.

One Year Refinish Warranty
The Arlington refinishing crew is NWFA certified, licensed and insured, and stands behind its labor for a year. Payment splits in two, half when the drum sander first touches wood and half after the third coat.
/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES
Hardwood Floor Stain Colors
A south facing East Arlington parlor glows all afternoon while a north bedroom under the maples in Arlington Heights stays cool, so one stain reads two ways across town. Samples on your floor settle it.
Natural Hardwood Floors
Clear coats with no color leave the oak pale and open in the small Arlington condos around Spy Pond.
Special Walnut Stain
A medium brown forgives sneaker marks and dog hair in the family capes of Arlington Heights.
Provincial Stain
A cool smoky shade cancels the red in old oak for the two families of East Arlington.
Early American Stain
Golden with a trace of red warmth suits the Victorians clustered near the Cyrus Dallin Art Museum.
Dark Walnut Stain
Deep walnut brings out each grain line in the dining room oak of a colonial beside the Mystic Lakes.
Jacobean Stain
Near black and sleek works in a renovated open plan home off Massachusetts Avenue, though pet hair shows sooner.
/ OUR SERVICES
Hardwood Floor Refinishers in Arlington
Victorians and two families along Massachusetts Avenue, Arlington Heights capes, colonials near the Mystic Lakes and condos beside Spy Pond fill our refinishing calendar. That Arlington oak has taken a century of boots, strollers and dinner parties, and we sand it bare, clean it, stain it and seal it one room at a time.
/ NEW FLOORS, STAIRS AND REPAIRS
Floors, Stairs and Repairs in Arlington
Some Arlington oak is beyond sanding. For those rooms we bring new hardwood, laminate or vinyl plank, cut out split boards, blend a stain to the adjoining rooms and refinish the stairs that connect them.

Refinish Your Floors Next Day
Three things Arlington callers want settled before we book: whether the orange leaves the oak, how long the kitchen is shut and what to do with the dog. The answers follow.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does refinishing cost in Arlington?
One flat number, $2.50/Sq Ft, covering the sanding, your stain and the polyurethane, three coats of it. An Arlington floor that has only gone dull, seal intact, usually needs just a screen and recoat, which is $1.00/Sq Ft.
Can you get the orange out of our 1990s oak?
Yes. Once the yellowed finish is sanded away, a cooler stain such as Jacobean or Provincial neutralizes the red tone in Arlington oak. You pick from samples brushed onto your own boards.
How many days is the first floor off limits?
Three days for a clear finish, four when stain is involved, on an Arlington job below 1,500 Sq Ft, with one spare day held back for humid weather. Socks after a day, the couch after two.
Where does the dog go while you work?
Outside or shut in a room we are not sanding. After 24 hours the new Arlington finish can take paws, and short nails keep it looking new longer.
Will there be dust through the whole house?
No. Each Arlington sander runs a hose to a sealed container, and before any stain is opened the crew blows off the trim and vacuums the room.
Do we need to be home in Arlington?
No. Hide a key in a lockbox or hand one to a neighbor, and the crew lets itself in each morning until the third coat has cured.
What do the stairs in a two family cost?
$50 a step in Arlington, stain included. Treads are hand sanded and colored to match the hallway at the top, and risers are quoted on their own.
Is money due to book an Arlington date?
Nothing. Half comes due the morning sanding starts in Arlington, the balance when the final poly coat is on, and reserving the date itself is free.
/ ALSO SERVING
Local Floor Refinishing Experts
The sanders that work Arlington also run in Belmont, Medford, Winchester, Watertown and Somerville, with each of those towns quoted at the Arlington rate per foot.
Belmont colonials have floor refinishing at $2.50/Sq Ft that lifts decades of scuffs from Belmont oak and brings back its sheen.
Medford two families have hardwood sanding that cuts through worn varnish and the gray traffic lanes in a Medford hallway in one pass.
Winchester colonials have floor staining in deep warm browns, shades that work beside the painted trim and original doors common in Winchester.
Watertown houses have board replacement from $150 ahead of the sanding, for the Watertown strips a washer leak or a dog has ruined.
Somerville triple deckers have stair refinishing at $50 a step with stain brushed on by hand, and Somerville risers are quoted separately.
