"When we met with Erik, we instantly knew we wanted his company to refinish our floors. He was honest, sincere, and completely transparent. He didn't rush through the measurements. He explained the process thoroughly and answered all of our questions and our concerns. We absolutely love how beautiful the floors turned out. We felt that we were more than just another job. I highly recommend A1 Wood Floors."

"I couldnâ t have asked for a better solution to what anyone has ever experienced with refinishing and installing wood floors and would highly recommend them without reservation. Gabe and his crew were amazing and made me comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. They went above and beyond in what was agreed in the original quote and I couldnâ t be happier. They over delivered on everything that was done., from removing carpet, laying a new floor(which matched perfectly with the old flooring), refinishing the old floor, refinishing our steps and upstairs landing, to installing new spindles. Gabe checked in with me every step of the way BEFORE they even began the work. He kept me updated throughout the process with pictures. They were careful or our belongings, put plastic around everything and the doorways. They cleaned up and vacuumed when they finished. There was very minimal dust which impressed me. When it comes time to install new flooring in our upstairs bedrooms, I wouldn't hesitate for a second. It was a wonderful experience and they were all a pleasure to work with. Thank you all!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Everything from start to finish went very well. The owner Rich listened to what my goal was. We had to knock down 2 walls and continue the existing hardwood flooring into another full room as well as into an entrance hallway. Everything was fully explained, every step was done very professionally. Keith and the other worker were excellent. Whenever I stopped by to see the work they were very respectful and helpful so I felt part of the whole experience including choosing the right stain. The finished floor is outstanding! I will try to upload a pic. I totally would and have recommended Oaktree Flooring to a friend already. Also I met with 2 other floor guys. Besides that I felt comfortable with Rich, his pricing is very fair. There was no vagueness about the price, and he appreciated the great quality of the current wood flooring that existed in the house and knew it would finish up nice. Another floor guy wanted to rip it all out and put in a new large plank floor so it would be updated. The stain we used has updated the floor, it feels and looks wonderful. Extremely pleased."

"Al and his team were amazing! The person who worked on the floors before did not know what they were doing. They left ridges in the wood, and on top of that, they stained it a cherry color which was a far different from the oak color and seemed to have applied the stain with a paint brush, with strokes going in all different directions and very visible to the eye! Al took one look and said that all the person did was buff the floor. He did not sand it properly nor applied the products properly! Al promised that my floors would come out beautifully. And they did! My floors look so great, that some thought they were newly installed! Al's team did an amazing job and we would definitely use them again!"

"Alberto is a hard worker, honest and friendly. He was honest about how our floor will look after refinishing. He gave us choices regarding the finishes and how it will look. Honest about the pros and cons of using oil versus water base finishes. Our floors were old, a little buckled and yellow/orange. He made them look brand new and smooth. Took the old yellow oil base finish away. Brightened up the entire first floor and made the wood grain and natural color appear again. We are very happy with his work and would recommend him to everyone."

"We pulled old carpeting up and had issues with the old floor beneath. They had to join the floors of two rooms to a hallway by splicing new pieces of hardwood in because previous owners moved walls and just carpeted over the entire upstairs afterward. We hired them to splice in the threshold areas, and also remove the carpet that went down the stairs and refinish it all. They were fabulous, extremely nice to work with, super clean. We literally had no dust to speak of afterward. Great guys - we recommend them wholeheartedly!"

"Domenick is a professional craftsman. He kept to a tight schedule, always showed up on time and did a great job. He gave us creative ideas that would work in our space. Domenick and his team were pleasant to work with. From the moment they entered our home they worked a full day and showed up everyday. Domenick enjoys and takes pride in his work. We are extremely pleased with the final result. Our basement bathroom was transformed into an oasis with a spa feel. The main area in the basement and hallway leading to the basement was also transformed into a warm, welcoming living space. The work he performed in 3 weeks was: Build a new shower/tile with a design/create a shower bench/install shower panel/tile behind the vanity with the design trim/install the vanity/move plumbing, gas and electrical for the shower and vanity with light fixture/tile the floor/install a stackable washer and dryer/build out a wall to divide the storage area and heat unit/install a sliding barn door/paint the bathroom, main room and hallway up to the kitchen door/ installed 3 windows, an air conditioner and installed recessed lighting in the bathroom/installed interlocking vinyl flooring in the storage area, main room and stairs (repaired two broken stairs and lots of extras, e.g. installed a lighting fixture in the hallway by the stair landing, a make up/shaving mirror in the bathroom, installed window treatments and assembled a 70 inch TV storage cabinet). We have booked him for future projects. We highly recommend Domenick and his team."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Ridgewood, 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.
