"Refinishing I’m surprised by the few bad reviews I read in here since our experience with America’s Best Flooring has been nothing but wonderful! Work was completed on schedule and house left in good order. Our neighbors can’t believe it is the same floor! We would definitely recommend Nunzio and his team to anyone looking to redo their floors."

"My tenant left ice in the freezer which melted when the electricity was turned off. So the hardwood floors in front were damaged. Danny replaced the damaged boards and then refinished the entire condo. The floors are just gorgeous! I the dark, rich color looks contemporary. "

"We had a floor leveling issue in which a room was part tile over cement and part carpet over hardwood, with the tiled part being higher than the carpeted part. We wanted to remove the tile, level the entire floor, and have hard wood flooring throughout the room. This was a challenge for the other contractors and flooring people who came out to give estimates. However, Mike of Mike’s flooring came out and immediately knew how to implement a plan of action. Mike’s team responded quickly and finished the job in a timely manner. They were pleasant and respectful, took care to limit the dust, and cleaned up after themselves. Mike also gave us great remodeling advice and provided us with great referrals for other trade experts. Most importantly, Mike charged a fair price, and he and his team did a WONDERFUL job. The new hard wood flooring looks GORGEOUS! Mike is a true expert in flooring, and I highly recommend him and his team."

"The job was done to its perfection. My cherry wood flooring is more difficult than normal to refinish but Mike and his buddy made it look brand new and the whole project was communicated clearly and Mike also provide followup calls to make sure things are good after the project is done. Definitely recommend for any kind of flooring projects!"

"I needed a small repair job on wood laminate. Most companies I talked to didn’t want to bother unless I was replacing the entire floor. Rustic Flooring ( Marcel ) came out , sent his craftsmen out and did the job beautifully!!! They are skillful, courteous and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Marcel and his team."

"Vasile and his team did an excellent job on refinishing my wood floors in my apartment. From start to finish the project was completed in a VERY timely manner, which is amazing when dealing with damage that needs to be repaired. My refinished wood floors look 10000% better than they originally were. Vasile also is always quick to respond to questions, concerns, you name it. Highly recommend!"

"We havenâ t had any floor refinishing for probably over 30 years & didnâ t know who to work with , so I contacted Angie List. First one I talked with was Peter at Access Flooring. He came out next day & explained everything so thoroughly that I felt confident working with someone who has worked with flooring for over 25 years. Excellent job!"

"Daniel understood we had a very tight timeline to complete the refinishing of our floors and he and his team responded appropriately. They arrived early every morning and scheduled there work so they could return to apply more than one coat of stain a day. The floor, which was installed in 1980 was refinished perfectly. It looks better than new. The team from DAC Flooring was professional, courteous and skillful and we're already looking forward to our next project with them."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Arlington Heights, IL

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.
