Rustic Flooring takes pride in every aspect of hardwood flooring, from a custom installation, to a basic repair. Give Bianca and her team the opportunity to create a custom design using one of several species of hardwoods. No two designs are the same. From Romania to the United States, Rustic Flooring, Inc. has worked very hard to build a great reputation. Allow them to show you, as well.

"Marcel and his team are far beyond expectations, no matter how high the bar is set. Marcel scoped the project the day prior to installation, and the crew arrived exactly as promised and immediately started the job. They are professional and exacting, with the final result probably the best work Iâ ve ever seen. The finished floor is gorgeous. I will wait for Marcel and his team to become available to handle my future projects."

When you want quality that will last for decades, Mike’s Hardwood Flooring is the simple, one-stop solution you need to bring out the natural beauty of your home. A family-owned and operated store located in Skokie, IL, we’ve been proudly serving the Chicago land area since 1992, and are proud to offer top-quality, long-lasting solutions for a full range of flooring needs. Additional email - mike.floordr@gmail.com

"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."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Grayslake, 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.
