Dustless Floor Refinishing

Each sander is hooked to a dust collector, so a gray film stays off the shelves and out of the apartment downstairs. Corners are done by hand.

3 to 5 Day Refinishing

Most rooms take three to four days, with a spare day when the air is damp. Walk in socks the next day and set furniture back on day three.

Hardwood Floor Repair

A plank ruined by an old radiator leak gets cut out and swapped from $150, then worked into the surrounding floor before sanding starts.

One Year Refinish Warranty

Our own employees do the sanding, with a one-year labor warranty behind it. Half the price is due at the start and half after the final coat.

/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES

Hardwood Floor Stain Colors

Afternoon sun floods a south-facing living room, while a first-floor flat shaded by the building next door stays dim, so one stain reads differently in each. We test it in place.

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 does refinishing cost in New Britain?

The price is $2.50/Sq Ft for sanding, stain and three coats of polyurethane. A floor whose finish is still sound may only need a screen and recoat at $1.00/Sq Ft.

Can my orange oak floor turn brown?

Yes. Sanding removes the yellowed finish, and a cooler stain cuts the red. Swatches go on your own boards before you pick.

How long before I can walk on it?

Socks are fine after roughly 24 hours, and furniture returns after 48. Damp weather can add a day.

Is the sanding dusty?

Machines are tied to collectors that hold the dust in sealed bags. The crew wipes down each room before leaving.

Do I have to be home?

Someone should let the crew in on the first morning. After that we agree on access with you.

What about boards that are damaged?

Bad boards are replaced from $150, quoted on site, and blended in before the sanding so the color evens out.

How do I pay?

The bill splits into 50% when sanding begins and 50% at the final coat, with nothing charged in between.

Can you refinish my stairs?

Yes, each step is $50 and the finish is brushed on by hand. Risers are quoted on their own.
