"Roberto and his team helped us select, paint, and install a large custom french door for our home office. Roberto understood our vision, made the process simple, and handled the project efficiently. Roberto was quick to respond, and showed up exactly when he said he would to make sure his team was on time and understood what we wanted. We are so happy with the way the door came out, and highly recommend Roberto and his team at Monk's."

Customers say: Quick response

"My husband and I are first time home owners so we were excited but nervous to find someone to do our floors and paint before we move in. Al was the first person we met for a quote interior paint and flooring and among all of them he was the most thorough, professional, detailed, and provided one of the most competitive quotes. Our daughter’s first birthday party at the house was scheduled the following weekend and Al, Jay, and the rest of the team got to work Monday 7AM and completed all the work in 4 days! The communication was unmatched and Al answered all our questions and addressed all our concerns within minutes. We ran into a little hiccup with our stairs and floor not matching as one was originally made of pine and the other made of red oak which made the finish look off, but Al gave us a solution right away and his approach to the problem made the stairway area our favorite part of the home. We look forward to working with Al in the future as we build in our new home. "

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Livingston, NJ

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.
