Dustless Floor Refinishing

The sanders feed hoses that empty into sealed bags, so dust stays off the furniture and counters. One last air pass clears ceilings and trim.

3 to 5 Day Refinishing

Kitchens below 1,500 Sq Ft are off limits for 3 days with clear coats or 4 with stain, plus one cushion day. Socks at 24 hours.

Hardwood Floor Repair

A board swollen by a leaky dishwasher or gouged by a table leg is pulled and replaced from $150, then sanded flush with the room.

One Year Refinish Warranty

Labor is guaranteed for a year by a crew that is licensed, insured and NWFA trained. Payment is split in two, at first sanding and final coat.

/ STAIN COLORS AND FINISHES

Hardwood Floor Stain Colors

Rooms facing the harbor catch strong afternoon glare while streets shaded by old maples stay dim, so one stain reads differently across town. We swatch before we commit.

/ OUR SERVICES

Hardwood Floor Refinishers in New London

Victorians near Williams Park, flats on State Street, cottages in Pequot Colony and houses off Montauk Avenue fill much of our year. Those floors carried sandy feet, dogs and long dinners. We sand every room to bare wood, clean it thoroughly, stain it and seal it.

Refinish Your Floors Next Day

New London owners ask if an orange floor can turn brown, how long the kitchen is closed and whether the dog can wait outside. We answer all three at the free visit.

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 refinishing price in New London?

The rate is $2.50/Sq Ft flat, with the sanding, a single stain shade and three coats of poly all inside it. Oak that is merely dull might only need our $1.00/Sq Ft screen and recoat.

Can an orange floor turn brown?

Yes. Sanding removes the amber coating and a cool toned stain tames the red, once we test a patch on your own boards.

How long is the kitchen out of use?

Below 1,500 Sq Ft figure on three days for clear or four for stain, with a buffer day held in reserve. Socks are fine after 24 hours.

Can the dog stay outside during the job?

Yes, outdoors or behind a closed door. Paws can go on the new finish after a day.

Will sanding fill my flat with dust?

Machine dust goes into sealed bags, and the crew vacuums sills and trim before staining.

Do I need to be home each day?

No. A key lockbox lets the crew come in each morning right through the last coat.

What does stair refinishing cost?

Stairs cost $50 a step including stain, and each tread is hand sanded. Risers are not part of that price.

Do I pay anything to hold a date?

No deposit. Pay half as the sanders begin and the other half once the last coat is on.
