Dustless Floor Refinishing

Every sander is tied to a hose and sealed bag so dust never fills the living room. One last air pass clears the trim and the sills.

3 to 5 Day Refinishing

Under 1,500 Sq Ft, plan on 3 days unstained or 4 with stain, plus a spare day when shore fog hangs on. Socks at 24 hours, furniture at 48.

Hardwood Floor Repair

When a leaking dishwasher swells a plank or a dropped pan dents one, we cut it out and set a new one from $150, then sand it level.

One Year Refinish Warranty

We stand behind labor for twelve months. Operators carry NWFA certification, a license and insurance, and payment comes in two halves.

/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES

Hardwood Floor Stain Colors

Rooms facing the Sound catch bright, hard afternoon sun, while shaded lots inland stay dim, so one stain reads differently from house to house. We swatch.

Hardwood Floor Refinishers in Madison

Shingle-style homes near the green, cottages by Surf Club Beach, capes in North Madison and older houses along Route 80 fill most of our weeks. That oak has met sandy feet, dog crates and many damp summers. Each room is sanded down to bare oak, then stained and sealed.

Refinish Your Floors Next Day

Madison homeowners ask whether a seventies floor can lose its orange, how long the kitchen stays closed and where the dog should wait.

Since you are close by, how fast can you start?

Most jobs start the day after we agree on it. The crew is close by, so we can come look at the floor, measure it and get going fast, often within a day.

How long will the refinish keep us out of the room?

For under 1,500 Sq Ft, clear runs 3 days and stained floors run 4, plus one extra day. Socks are fine after 24 hours and furniture goes back at 48.

Can you fix squeaks or loose boards first?

Sure. Loose boards get nailed down and damaged ones are swapped from $150 each before sanding, so the floor feels solid and quiet underfoot.

Should I go with oil or water based finish?

Oil based turns amber over time and feels classic. Water based Bona stays clear with much less smell. The price is the same per Sq Ft with us.

Is the sanding as dustless as you say?

Yes, it really is. Each sander feeds a collector as it runs. Afterward, walls and ceilings get blown down, and the rooms are vacuumed before the first coat.

When is the bill paid?

Half is due when our team begins sanding, and the rest the day the final coat goes on. No money is taken before work begins, not even a deposit.

What is the flat refinishing price in Madison?

At $2.50/Sq Ft you receive sanding, your chosen stain and three coats of poly. If the oak is only dull, a $1.00/Sq Ft buff and new coat might be enough.

Can the orange finish on my older floor come off?

It can. Sanding removes the aged coating, and a cool-toned stain cancels much of the red once it has been proven on your boards.

When can the family walk on the finished floor?

Sock feet are fine after a day, furniture returns after two days, and rugs wait for roughly two weeks.

Does refinishing include moving furniture?

It does for a flat $250 across the house. Ripping out an old floor first adds around $1.00/Sq Ft.

How is the work paid for?

Half goes to the crew on arrival and the remaining half after the last coat dries. No other deposit is requested.

Will sanding dust travel through my Madison house?

A hose carries it into sealed bags, and we wipe all ledges once the sanding ends. Some fine powder can still settle on tall shelves, so those get cleaned as well.

My oak was refinished years ago. Is enough wood left?

The visit includes a check of the wood left above the nails, and we report what we find. If there is not much left, a light buff and recoat is the kinder option.

What warranty comes with a refinish?

Brazil Floors gives one year on labor. The people running our sanders are NWFA certified, licensed and insured.
