Dustless Floor Refinishing
Our sanders feed dust through a hose into a sealed bag instead of onto your furniture. Compressed air then clears what settles on trim and window sills.

For under 1,500 Sq Ft, plan on 3 days with no stain or 4 with stain, plus a spare day in humid river weather. Socks after 24 hours, furniture after 48.
A strip swollen by a leaking radiator or gouged by a dog crate is pulled and replaced from $150, then sanded flush with the rest of the room.
Our labor is warrantied for a full year and the crew is licensed, insured and NWFA certified. Sanding is paid 50% on the first morning and 50% at the final coat.

Clear coats with no color keep the oak pale and bright in the small river houses along Route 154.

A medium brown that hides boot scuffs and dog hair in the family capes on the side roads of Higganum.

A cool smoky tone that cancels the orange cast of red oak in the ranches up on Haddam Neck.

A golden shade with a hint of red, fitting for the old center chimney houses near the Thankful Arnold House.

Deep walnut that brings out every grain line, handsome under the table in a Shailerville farmhouse dining room.

Nearly black and sleek, a modern choice for a renovated open plan house near Hidden Lake, though dust shows sooner.



A flat $2.50/Sq Ft, covering the sanding, your stain and three coats of poly. If the oak is merely dull and not worn through, a $1.00/Sq Ft screen and recoat may be all it needs.
Yes, once the old finish is sanded off the orange goes with it. A brown or smoky stain then takes over without that cast.
Original boards from earlier centuries have often been sanded before, so we measure what thickness is left. If there is not enough, a screen and recoat protects what remains.
About 3 days without stain or 4 with it, under 1,500 Sq Ft. Socks are fine after 24 hours, and the couch can come back after 48.
The machines run on vacuum hoses into sealed bags, so almost nothing settles. A light wipe of the trim afterward is all that is needed.
During sanding and the first coats, yes, both for the noise and the wet finish. Pets come back once the last coat has cured for a day.
Half when the crew starts sanding and half at the final coat. No deposit is taken before the first morning.
