"I had a new hardwood floor installed and wished to match the color to a much older hardwood floor. It was not easy, but JD figured it out! It's beautiful. He and his brother went above and beyond to make sure that I was happy with the color. They patiently displayed many sample colors for me until I could settle on one. I was concerned that the dust would trigger my husband's allergies, but not only did he minimize the dust and cover all the furniture, but his sweet mom cleaned everything perfectly afterward for a very modest charge. I wasn't always clear on when they would arrive each day, but JD was very flexible and always answered phone calls promptly. What a lovely family business! If I decide to refinish other hardwoods in my house, I will definitely choose JD."

"I can't say enough about the wonderful job Doran Hard Surfaces did for us, and I can't wait to have them back again to finish our steps and upstairs hallway and then our second floor bedrooms. Greg from Doran did all of the work on his own in a single day. He was prompt, efficient, hard-working and dedicated. He was also professional, courteous, friendly and very helpful in describing caring for the hard wood floors. I can't rate them highly enough!"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in New Kensington, PA

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.
