Dustless Floor Refinishing
Each drum sander runs with a vacuum hose clipped on, pulling up dust right where the paper meets wood, and the walls and sills get wiped before any finish is opened.

/ FAIRHAVEN SAND AND REFINISH
Hardwood Floor Refinishing Cost
Fairhaven floor refinishing is $2.50/Sq Ft, with sanding, stain in any shade and the full build of polyurethane already counted. A shingled cottage off Sconticut Neck Road pays that rate, as does a Greek Revival on Washington Street.
Hardwood Floor Resanding
Resanding removes gray paths by the slider, dents from beach chair legs and old amber varnish, exposing clean, bright oak once again.

3 to 5 Day Refinishing
Most rooms are sanded, stained and finished over a few days. A written schedule spells out the first day for light steps and the day the furniture returns.

Hardwood Floor Repair
Split strips, black pet spots and loose nails are dealt with before the first sanding pass so the patch disappears. We price these repairs free at the estimate.

One Year Refinish Warranty
Every refinish is backed by our twelve month labor promise. Billing is split, one half when sanding gets going and the other after you inspect the final layer.
/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES
Hardwood Floor Stain Colors
A color that looks right in the store may look different next to your windows, so we test on your floor. You check samples over a full day before we decide.
Natural Hardwood Floors
Skipping stain and using clear poly leaves oak honey bright in a room facing the harbor.
Special Walnut Stain
Medium brown hides the grit that comes home on flip flops from Fort Phoenix beach every July.
Provincial Stain
Neutral tones calm the orange glow that red oak develops with age, sitting quietly beside soft gray walls.
Early American Stain
A red brown tone feels cozy in a dining room where the windows face Priest's Cove on gray winter afternoons.
Dark Walnut Stain
Dark walnut adds richness to a front room, and the figure of the oak still reads clearly beneath it.
Jacobean Stain
Ebony, nearly black, looks striking in big open rooms, though dust and dog hair stand out against it much faster than with lighter shades.
/ OUR SERVICES
Fairhaven Hardwood Refinishing Crew
Old homes in Fairhaven Center and along Main Street often hide oak or wide pine that has not been sanded since the whaling money dried up. We cut through the old varnish, vacuum every seam, apply the stain you pick and build polyurethane slowly, until the grain looks as crisp as the day a ship carpenter laid it.
/ NEW FLOORS, STAIRS AND REPAIRS
Installs, Patches and Stairs in Fairhaven
If a floor has been sanded thin over the decades, we can put down new hardwood, laminate or LVP instead, swap cracked strips, change the tone of a room or rebuild a staircase.

Refinish Your Floors Next Day
Homeowners near Livesey Park usually ask how many days each room is closed, whether dust drifts upstairs and when the sofa can come back.

Expect $2.50/Sq Ft to sand off the old finish and refinish the oak, and stain plus poly sit inside that. If you want furniture moved, that costs a single $250, and repairs get priced during your free visit.
Can the floors in a whaling era house be saved?
Usually. Old oak and pine often have plenty of wood left. We look at an edge where the thickness shows, then sand only as aggressively as that particular floor allows.
Is sanding going to be messy?
Hardly. Vacuums on the sanders catch most dust at the source, plastic hangs across open doorways, and trim and windowsills are cleaned before finish is spread.
Can the color go lighter or darker?
Yes. After sanding, samples go on your oak for you to review in your own light. On its own, stain costs $2.00/Sq Ft, though color is already built into our refinishing price.
Do pet stains sand out?
Light scratches vanish under the sander. Dark urine marks that soaked deep rarely do, so our crew lifts those strips and weaves in new oak ahead of sanding.
Do I pay the whole refinishing bill at once?
No. Half is due as sanding begins. The balance is settled once the last layer cures and we have toured each room with you.
When can furniture go back?
Curing hinges on the finish product and how damp the air is near the water. We put both dates in writing, one for walking and one for heavy pieces, and add felt pads under legs.
Who will be in my home?
Only our own NWFA certified staff, never hired out crews. Brazil Floors holds full licensing and insurance, and if our refinishing labor falls short within twelve months, we make it right.
