Dustless Floor Refinishing
Dust from the sanders travels down a hose into sealed bags rather than onto your bookshelves, and compressed air clears the trim and beams before stain.

Hardwood Floor Refinishing Cost
Hardwood floor refinishing in Durham costs a flat $2.50/Sq Ft, and the stain color and three coats of poly are already inside that number. A wide board colonial on Main Street or a 1980s raised ranch off Route 79 pays the same per foot and the invoice matches the quote.
Hardwood Floor Resanding
A full resand clears away cloudy poly, chair tracks and the gray lanes that generations of boots leave on old Durham floors.

/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES
Hardwood Floor Stain Colors
A farmhouse on an open field gets light all day while a colonial under old maples on Main Street stays shaded, so one stain reads two ways. We swatch before anything is decided.
Natural Hardwood Floors
Clear coats with no color keep the boards bright in the small capes along the Coginchaug.
Special Walnut Stain
A medium brown that masks paw prints and boot scuffs in the family homes near the fairgrounds.
Provincial Stain
A cool smoky shade that takes the orange out of red oak in raised ranches off Route 79.
Early American Stain
A golden tone with a hint of red, right for the eighteenth century houses on Main Street.
Dark Walnut Stain
Deep walnut that reveals every grain line, handsome under a long farmhouse table near Miller's Pond.
Jacobean Stain
Almost black and sleek, a modern finish for a renovated open plan home east of town, though dust shows sooner.
/ OUR SERVICES
Hardwood Floor Refinishers in Durham
Center chimney colonials on Main Street, capes near the fairgrounds, raised ranches off Route 17 and farmhouses toward Miller's Pond fill most of our Durham calendar. Those boards have carried farm boots, dogs and a century of dinners. Each Durham room goes down to raw wood, gets vacuumed, takes its color and receives three coats of poly.

Durham homeowners want to know if antique pine can be sanded safely, how many days the kitchen is closed and whether the dog can stay in the barn.
Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat is the flat rate for refinishing in Durham?
Durham refinishing is $2.50/Sq Ft, and inside that figure are the sanding, one stain color and three poly coats. Boards that are worn but intact may only need a $1.00/Sq Ft screen and recoat.
Can you sand the antique pine in my Main Street house?
Yes, carefully. Old pine is soft, so we take a light pass with fine grit, keep the patina where you want it and seal it against boots.
How many days is the kitchen off limits?
Under 1,500 Sq Ft, figure 3 days clear or 4 with stain, plus a buffer. Walk it in socks a day later and bring the Durham kitchen table back after two.
Can the dog stay out in the barn while you work?
That is perfect. Keep the dog out of the house during sanding and coating, and paws can come back on the floor after 24 hours.
Will sanding leave dust through the house?
No. The sanders feed into sealed bags, and before stain the crew blows down trim and beams and vacuums every surface.
Do I need to take time off work?
No. Leave a key in a lockbox or with a neighbor and the crew lets itself in each morning until the final coat is dry.
What does it cost to refinish the stairs?
$50 per step with stain, each tread hand sanded to match the upstairs floor. Risers are a separate item.
Do you ask for money up front?
No. Half is due the first morning once sanding begins and the rest when the last coat is on. Booking a date costs nothing.
