I am someone who is trying to start a business. I’ve been in and around the construction industry for 20+ years, mainly doing commercial residential construction. I want to build something of my own where I feel my work can be noticed. I travel anywhere within the greater Rochester region. I look forward to meeting with you. Thank you

"When I phoned mr. Maloney to schedule an estimate for our project he promptly returned my call and made an appointment within 2 days. He arrived at the scheduled time and was friendly, professional and highly knowledgeable. Mr. Maloney informed me he's a master carpenter so I knew I'd be in great hands. I needed him to match new flooring to existing flooring in the kitchen and the job was performed flawlessly! He and his two assistants installed the flooring with care and attention to detail. There was no residual dust from the installation and they neatly cleaned up at the end of the day. The finished product far exceeded our expectations and made a tremendous difference in the house! It was a seamless transition from the kitchen into the great room.Replacing wall-to-wall carpeting with this beautifully finished hardwood floor brightened the whole house and has certainly added value to the home. The money we spent was well worth it for the outstanding transformation, and Mr. Maloney and his team are just the kind of people you feel comfortable having in your home, knowing that they take exceptional pride in their work. Hiring them was one of the best home-improvement decisions we've ever made.Don't even bother calling anyone elseâ ¦ Just call Brian!"

They finished and cleaned the work area after they were done. They were pleasant to talk with and answered any questions I may have had. I am definitely planning to use them again sometime in the future."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Amherst, NY

The hardest wood floor finish is aluminum oxide, but it only comes on prefinished boards. If you want something durable you can add after installation, acid-cured is your best bet. The key to the longevity of any type of wood floor is a maintenance coat when a traffic pattern begins to show in high traffic areas.

Moisture-cured urethane is the most durable finish for homes with pets. However, It contains a lot of (VOCs) that can aggravate pets and people, especially at first. If you’re looking for a low-VOC alternative, water-based polyurethane is your best bet.

Bona sells several highly-rated polyurethane hardwood floor finish products, typically through small, local distributors. Brands like DuraSeal or Minwax also rank well for durability and ease of application. They are available at businesses such as Walmart and Amazon.

You have to seal unfinished hardwood floors to protect them from scratches and stains. The frequency depends on the type, but in general it’s ideal to refinish them between four and six times in their lifetime. This comes out to about every seven to 10 years.

Refinishing hardwood floors costs $1,100 to $2,400.

Wood stain adds a color to the surface. A finish adds a level of shine (e.g. matte, low-gloss, high-gloss) and seals the grain to protect against damage. Some companies, such as Minwax, offer products that do both at once.
