Dustless Floor Refinishing

Each sander hooks to a vacuum, so the dust goes into a sealed bag and not onto the furniture. A final hand pass cleans corners and trim.

3 to 5 Day Refinishing

Plan three days for a floor under 1,500 Sq Ft, or four with stain, plus a spare in damp air. Socks after 24 hours, furniture after 48.

Hardwood Floor Repair

A board cupped by a dishwasher leak or gouged by a dragged cabinet is cut out and replaced from $150, then blended into the finish.

One Year Refinish Warranty

Labor carries a full year of warranty from our licensed, insured, NWFA certified crew. Half is due as sanding starts, half with the last coat.

/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES

Hardwood Floor Stain Colors

Windows facing the river pour afternoon light into one room, while a wooded lot on Lord Hill leaves another dim, so a single stain reads differently in each house. We test it in place.

/ OUR SERVICES

Hardwood Floor Refinishers in Lyme

Capes on Grassy Hill, ranches in the woods, river cottages and old farmhouses fill most of our weeks. Those floors carry years of boots, wet dogs and holiday dinners. Every room follows one order of work: sand, vacuum, stain, seal.

What does floor refinishing cost in Lyme?

Refinishing is $2.50/Sq Ft, covering sanding, your stain and three coats of polyurethane. Screen and recoat for floors that only need a fresh top coat is $1.00/Sq Ft.

Can an orange oak floor be changed?

Yes, a new stain can cool or deepen the orange, and we brush samples on your own boards first. Pick the one you like in your own light.

How long until I can use the room?

Stay off in shoes, but socks are safe after a day, and furniture goes back on day three. Humid weather can add a day.

Will sanding make a mess?

Our sanders connect to a vacuum, so very little dust escapes into the house. The crew cleans corners and trim by hand at the end.

Do you need to be home?

Only to let the crew in on the first morning and to approve the stain. After that they can work while you are out.

What if some boards are damaged?

Damaged boards are replaced from $150 before sanding, so the repair blends into the finish. We quote them on site since each one differs.

How is payment split?

Sanding is paid 50% when it starts and 50% at the final coat. Any material is paid for as the boxes get dropped off.

Do you refinish stairs as well?

Yes, stairs are $50 per step, hand stained and sealed. The crew matches the color to the floor at the bottom.
