"David is a master craftsman. He repaired and refinished our 100+ years old hardwood floors and made them look like new again. He had to patch and install new flooring in some areas, and was able to make a perfect match. We are thrilled with the results; the floors are absolutely gorgeous. We only wish we had worked with him sooner! David is wonderful to work with; he is friendly and professional, an incredibly hard worker and was quick to answer any communications. We can't recommend him highly enough!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Nicolas and his assistant took a 55 year old hardwood floor, which had paint, stains, and damage and they spent a week making it look very, very nice. Anyone with an old, damaged wood floor cannot expect it to look brand new. However Nicolas can bring out the character of the wood floor and so that is looks warm and homey. He and his assistant were patient, kind, and collaborative. If I refinish any more wood floors, I will call Nicolas. His price was similar to other companies and it was not too much more than installing carpet. We are happy that we had him do this job. By the way, if you are using an oil based finish, it is a good idea to let it cure for about two weeks. With the week for the work of refinishing, this is a three week job. But if you can make your floor available for that amount of time, you will have a durable, very pretty floor, ready for the next 20 years of use."

"You will not find a more experienced & talented floor contractor. Knows his business inside out; confident; detail oriented; outstanding skills; hard worker; intelligent and friendly; deep industry knowledge including current issues/trends/equipment/hardwoods and vendors/contractors in this business. Very competitive pricing; also found sales for the wood flooring we wanted; used the top grade wood & mill for our project; discovered issues with our subflooring and was able to resolve them quickly and completely; his estimate time for completion of our project was right on the mark; Would not use anyone else should I have flooring needs in the future. I feel fortunate to have found Rich. Our new flooring is amazing!"

"Floor Pros did impressive work on a very challenging job for us. The job entailed refinishing our 100-year old living room, dining room and entry floors, replacing our upstairs hall floor which had been badly damaged during a remodel and refinishing our mahogany stairs and adding new risers to cover the gaps between the old risers and the treds. Mark Velez of Floor Pros really stood out from the other floor companies by being responsive to the unique issues of our floors and willing to problem-solve to find the best solution. The results exceeded our hopes, thanks to his skilled crew. The new hall floor was beautifully laid, with a border to match the existing floor. With Mark’s input, we decided to use a clear finish on the steps to help the mahogany (which tends to stain red) blend better with the lightly stained (pecan color) oak floors. Mark recommended heartwood white oak for the new risers, also with a clear finish, and the result was a perfect blend of the different woods. The new treds were installed with such precision that they virtually eliminated the chorus of squeaks we had been living with. We opted to have 2 coats of the Bona Commercial High Traffic finish and have been very pleased with it. Mark and his crew get top marks for customer communication, problem-solving and performance. We would certainly use Floor Pros again and would recommend them."

"I got three bids on this job. Glen was the only contractor that pointed out several safety (trip) issues and said he would fix them and include it in the price. His price was competitive and his workmanship was excellent. He refinished our FR floor from a dark oak stained parquet floor to a natural finish… so good. Our pups had peed and stained some of the flooring. Glen repaired or replaced all of the stained areas. He was always on time and kept us in the loop as to how long the job would take. We would recommend Glen without hesitation. He is a real pro!!!"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Emeryville, CA

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.
