"This is a great company to do business with. I hired a company to refinish my hardwood and they totally ruined my floor. I thought I might have to replace it but Varnes was able to redo the work and save the floors. Everyone was great to work with. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a quality job done right the first time."

"We hired Sam's Hardwood Floors to refinish the hardwood floors and install quarter-round molding in our living room, dining room and entryway/main hallway. The wood flooring in these areas had been hidden under some retro shag carpeting when we bought our home, and they appeared worn, dull and out-dated. Sam's business had some great reviews and all of his work exceeded our expectations. Our initial estimate was prompt and painless and we found his rates to be VERY reasonable. Sam was courteous, informative and responsive throughout the process. We received constant updates about our project (by text – with pictures) and Sam demonstrated his knowledge and interest in his craft throughout. Sam was excellent at answering our questions and providing the right information to help us make decisions throughout the project (which stain type, color, molding, sheen etc.). Sam and his team treated our home with the utmost care and respect and we could not be more pleased with their work. Sam is a true craftsman and he runs a model business which we would STRONGLY recommend to anyone. Do yourself and your floors a favor and contact Sam TODAY!"

"Steve did an amazing job in installing new flooring in our dinning room and refinishing the remainder of the ground floor. He did a great job in matching the color of the new and old floor. We've used him twice and we would highly recommend his work."

"Steven sent his co-worker Bill and his son Nick to tackle the job. They arrived at 8 AM. Quite carefully, they evaluated all of their options and explained in detail what had to be done.
The laminate floor extended from a large LR, along an open kitchen with ceramic tile, through a hallway, with a door leading to the outside, a closet, and into the rear BR. Instead of removing unnecessary flooring in the rear BR, they decided to cut the floor at the BR door and install a piece of T-molding under the door. That made sense! Now it was time to remove the baseboard molding and laminate planks. The subfloor revealed 2 areas that were soft and required to be secured. The floor was leveled with Ardex cement and dried. The reinstallation of the flooring took a surprisingly short time, even though a few boards had to be recut. The tedious job was to fit T-molding along the kitchen and especially under the rear door into a small space. The previous T-molding could not be saved and had to be re-purchased. Overall, the job went very well, but required more hours that initially predicted. Bill and Nick are perfectionists and produce excellent quality work... and always with a smile!
The result is a really solid floor. You couldn't even see that it was repaired! I am thrilled with the outcome and would hire this company again at any time for any flooring needs!"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Middletown, DE

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.
