Dustless Floor Refinishing
The dust goes into a sealed bag through a hose on the sander rather than onto your kitchen counters. Once the sanding stops, the trim gets blown clean and the floor vacuumed a second time ahead of the stain.

For a Boxford house under 1,500 Sq Ft the floor is out of use three days clear, four with color, and we keep an extra day in reserve for humid weeks. Walk it in socks the next day; the furniture returns the day after.
A board swollen by a dishwasher leak or gouged under a dog crate is replaced from $150, then sanded flush with its neighbors so it disappears into the room.
One year labor warranty, and a licensed, insured, NWFA certified crew. Half the sanding bill is paid the first morning and half when the final coat goes on.

Skip the stain and three clear coats leave white oak bright in the kitchens of Boxford's newer colonials.

A middle brown forgives dog hair and sneaker scuffs in the family rooms of colonials off Lawrence Road.

Gray brown stain pulls the orange out of red oak in the raised ranches near Boxford Village.

Golden tones flatter the wide pine and old oak found in antiques around the First Church Area.

Dark walnut brings out every grain line under the dining table in a Boxford center hall colonial.

Espresso stain, close to black, suits a gutted open plan house near Stiles Pond, though every speck of dust shows on it.



A flat $2.50/Sq Ft that pays for the sanding, the stain color and three coats of poly. When the finish has only gone dull and has not worn through, the $1.00/Sq Ft screen and recoat is usually enough.
It can. Once the sander has the yellowed finish off, a cool shade like Jacobean or Provincial neutralizes the red that red oak carries. The candidates get wiped onto your floor so the decision is made from real color, not a chip.
Three days clear, four with stain, in a Boxford house under 1,500 Sq Ft, with a buffer day held for damp weather. Socks on it the next day; the table goes back the day after.
Outside or behind a closed door is fine. Paws can be on the new finish 24 hours after the last coat, and trimmed nails help it last.
No. The dust goes straight from the sander into sealed bags, and before any stain goes down the crew blows off the trim and ceiling corners and vacuums each room.
No. Hand a key to a neighbor or set up a lockbox; either way the crew has to get into the house each day until the final coat has been laid and is drying.
$50 per step, stain included. Treads are hand sanded one at a time and colored until they agree with the hall upstairs; risers carry their own price.
No. The sanding bill is split in half, the first part due the morning the machines start and the second part due once the final poly coat is down. Reserving a date costs nothing.
