"Nunzio has been wonderful to work with throughout the years. I own a few investment properties where I've called on Nunzio to refinish the floors, and they've turned out spectacular. Some have oak, while others are maple or older wood. Depending on the species of wood he's always recommended the best course of action and he's always made them look beautiful. He honors his quotes and does care about doing a good job, and has returned if I've needed him to. I would recommend him to friends."

"I had Adrian, the owner of MCraft, install wood on my second floor and I could not be more impressed with the experience. He was professional from start to finish. He took the time to explain the type of wood being used and walked us through the entire process. He even provided samples of the different stains we wanted to have on our floor, allowing us to choose the perfect color for our space. He was always punctual and when leaving ensured the area was clean. In moving our furniture prior to/ after the job he was always careful. Instead of hurrying through the sanding process he took his time. It was a time consuming process requiring many different levels of sanding and it was clear he was not trying to rush the job. I was so impressed with the results that I hired him again to refinish my first floor. If you are looking for a professional, reliable and skillful contractor do not hesitate to contact Adrian."

"Because of his over 30 years of experience in wood floor installation, repair, and refinishing, Bill is a true expert in this field. When removal of carpeting from our hallway revealed staining and damage to the hardwood flooring below, Bill replaced the damaged boards. He refinished the entire hallway so that it looks brand new. Bill also refinished the floors in two bedrooms, recommending the products and techniques that would best cover stains and rough areas. Because of his extensive knowledge, Bill gave great explanations and made helpful suggestions. Bill proved that he is willing to take on challenges. When he encountered unanticipated issues , he readily found and worked through solutions. I highly recommend this company and would readily hire Bill again for future projects."

"The end job was excellent.  They came every day, stayed all day until the job was finished.  We are very happy with the finished product.  However, they did not return calls promptly and were going to leave the job unfinished.  By unfinished I mean they were going to leave without properly  installing all the shoe  molding.  They were going to leave a putty joint between the floor and baseboard showing.  They also charged us for the additional shoe molding which we believed was included in the original price. I do
recommend them justmake sure you include everything you want  written in the contract."

"Lyle Swan surpassed all expectations. He refinished floors, installed new floors and found and repaired floor and subfloor damage that was not readily apparent. He matched the wood floor color to our lower level vinyl floors for a smooth transition. He also rebuilt our unsafe staircase without charge. He has great integrity, takes initiative, is excellent in his craft and a rare find. Lyle goes the extra mile in his work ethic--a true gem in the trades. We would recommend him in a heartbeat."

"I am a long-time landlord who does most of the maintenance and repair work myself. I was needing hardwood floors finished and tried Angi for the first time. Johanny is the owner of Floorscape Designs and worked with me from beginning to end to get this job done in less than a week. He’s kind and patient and very knowledgeable about hardwood flooring and refinishing. He has a great crew of skilled professionals and I would hire them again!"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Oswego, 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.
