"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."

"Alex and Mario are the best! I hired them to refinish approximately 1,000 square feet of hardwood flooring. The craftsmanship and attention to detail was beyond what I expected. They finished the job on time and the end result was simply amazing. I highly recommend and I will be using them again in the future and have also referred them to my neighbors!"

"I would highly recommend Gabriel and crew for hardwood floor work, whether it be refinishing or new floors. They are very professional and communicate during the whole process. And lastly, they finish the project in a timely fashion and thoroughly clean up after themselves."

"Danny and his crew were great. We originally hired them to refinish wood floors in our two upstairs bedrooms, but after pulling back the carpet and realizing the hardwood wasn’t consistent, Danny was able to pivot quickly and get LVP installed within 2 days. Very friendly and helpful, and great quality work done. We are very happy with the finished product! And lots of helpful tips and little detail finishes like staining thresholds that really brought the project together. Recommending Modern Quality Flooring to all our family and friends !"

"Stunning results. We had red oak flooring over 70 years old refinished for the first time ever. They turned out beautiful. Far surpassed expectations. No mess, got out old water stains. Very pleased."

"Arkadia did a wonderful job laying new flooring throughout our 1st floor and stairs. It was not an easy job by far, but Mike did it with patience, and it came out perfect. I highly recommend. Mike was extremely flexible with our schedule as well. I’d give more stars if I could!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Sergiy and his team are top notch professionals. The work was completed within the time frame and price that was originally quoted. Super impressed with the craftsmanship. The floor is perfectly even with no visible dings or dips in the finish. His recommendation for stain was spot on. I would describe the look as modern, yet timeless. We could repaint and replace all the trim in just about any style and Iâ m confident the floors could hold up to it. Iâ ve already recommended them to a friend that is remolding their home. Five stars!!!"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Arlington Heights, IL

Rental sanders can address moderate surface damage, but their effectiveness depends on scratch depth and overall floor condition. Drum sanders offer the most aggressive removal capability for deeper imperfections. However, if the damage extends into the wood structure or affects large portions of the floor, board replacement by an expert might be necessary before sanding. Consult a flooring professional for help.

Always thoroughly review the manufacturer's operating instructions before starting. Wear appropriate safety gear, including goggles to protect your eyes and a respirator to prevent inhalation of dust. Inspect electrical components before each use to prevent shock hazards. Keep children and pets away from the work area, and maintain a clean space by frequently vacuuming dust accumulation to prevent slipping and to ensure you can see well.

Sandpaper requirements depend on floor size, condition, and the sanding approach. Plan to use multiple grit levels (coarse, medium, and fine) with at least one to two sheets per 100 square feet for each grit. Floors with significant damage or multiple finish layers will require more coarse-grit sheets. Purchase extra supplies before beginning because running out mid-project can cause visible inconsistencies in the final result.
