"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 can’t say enough great things about the work done on my in-law’s floors. They were getting the house ready to sell, and the transformation is honestly unbelievable. The old tile was removed and replaced with beautiful hardwood flooring, and the existing floors were refinished to perfection. They truly look brand new—like something out of a model home. The color and richness of the wood were completely brought back to life, and the attention to detail really shows. The entire space feels warmer, brighter, and more updated. Not only was the quality of work outstanding, but the whole process was smooth and professional from start to finish. If you’re looking to refresh your floors or completely transform your space, I highly recommend Ismael and his team. You won’t be disappointed!"

"We were thrilled with the work they did refinishing our 80-year-old floors. They look just beatiful! The team also took great pains to keep dust to a minimum, selaing off other rooms and air vents, etc. They came when they said they would and actually finished a head of schedule. When a problem with the power came up, Mike was very resourceful in getting it fixed. Would highly recommend."

"Rustic Flooring installed laminate flooring we bought from LL Flooring. Marcel and his guys did an excellent, professional and with attention to detail job. I highly recommend Rustic and will use them again for additional flooring projects we are planning. We couldn’t be happier."

"Superior Hardwood Floors Inc. is a great company to work with if you want to install new floors or get your floors refinished. We also had our bannisters refinished and new spindle put in. George is very professional and quoted us the best price of all the other companies we looked at. He and his team were very pleasant to work with and took great care over our home reno. Highly recommend this company. And will have him back again to do our upstairs shortly."

"Very professional and punctual. None of the contacts were pushy, listened extremely well and provided all insurance info immediately, without being asked. They were very flexible in doing whatever I wanted and did a fabulous job. Price was very acceptable. They warned me about the odor of the standard wood coating and it was extemely harsh as warned. If I did hardwood refinishing again, would probably opt for the no odor coating. Was done in a middle floor of an apartment building and both the floor above and below found it to be extremely odorous...especially since it was winter time and could not ventilate easily."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Highland Park, 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.
