Dustless Floor Refinishing

Our sanders draw dust through a hose into a sealed bag, not into your living room. A closing air pass clears the trim.

3 to 5 Day Refinishing

Under 1,500 Sq Ft, plan for 3 days unstained or 4 with stain, plus a spare day in damp weather. Socks at 24 hours, furniture at 48.

Hardwood Floor Repair

A board swollen by a leaky dishwasher or gouged by a woodstove hearth is cut out and replaced from $150, then sanded flush.

One Year Refinish Warranty

Labor is covered for a year, and the sander operators are licensed, insured and NWFA certified. Half is paid at the start and half at the end.

/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES

Hardwood Floor Stain Colors

Rooms facing the Farmington River valley get hard afternoon sun, while wooded lots off Route 202 stay dim, so one stain looks different from house to house. We swatch.

Refinish Your Floors Next Day

New Hartford homeowners ask whether a seventies floor can lose its orange, how long the kitchen is 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 New Hartford?

The price is $2.50/Sq Ft and pays for sanding, a stain color and three coats of poly. If the oak is merely dull, a $1.00/Sq Ft buff and fresh coat may do.

Can the orange finish on my antique farmhouse floor be removed?

Yes. Sanding strips the aged coating, and a cool stain cancels much of the red, tested on your boards before we commit.

When can we walk on the finished floor?

Walk in socks after 24 hours and bring the couches back at 48. Rugs should wait roughly two weeks.

Is furniture moving available for a refinish?

It is, for a flat $250 for the house. Taking out an old floor first is about $1.00/Sq Ft.

How is the sanding paid for?

Half is paid as the crew starts and half after the final coat. Nothing else is asked ahead of time.

How much dust will reach the rest of the house?

Dust travels through a hose into sealed bags, and every ledge is wiped at the end. Fine dust may still settle up high, so shelves and sills get a final wipe.

What if my boards have been sanded several times?

At the visit we measure how much wood is left above the nails and report it honestly. Where little wood remains, a screen and recoat is the gentler job.

What warranty comes with a refinish?

One year on labor from Brazil Floors. Our sander operators hold NWFA certification, a license and insurance.
