"Our last coat (3rd) of polyurethane went on today and we literally just spent 15 minutes walking around our house and admiring the absolute beautiful job that Best Choice did with our floors. Easily the best upgrade to our home we could have done. Other companies that quoted us said that they would not be able to get the bevels out of the pre treated boards installed in our house or get the color we wanted because of that. Best Choice Flooring not only was able to achieve that beautifully but at also a competitive price. Already recommending them to family and friends."

"Tom Long is the small business owner who cares very much about the quality of service he provides. He grew up in the business, his father teaching him, and he now works with his son as well. Tom not only came in with a competitive price, but he solved several challenges along the way, unbeknownst until the refinishing install began. He saw some subflooring existed underneath the wood to be refinished, so he bought and installed the same under a new area of wood to be installed, finishing it flawlessly to match the older wood he was re-finishing. He also took it upon himself to shave off the bottom of existing doors to clear the new elevation. Gratis. And had his electrician repair a cracked floor outlet we had. He took care of EVERYTHING!! And had wonderful communication all along the way. I don't think you can have him because WE are keeping him!! But if you DO, you will thrilled with old-fashioned conscientious service!!!"

"Sam was very responsive and able to schedule, then re-schedule, us with rather short notice. As stated by many others, his customer communications are outstanding. His price for the job was surprisingly lower than many of the other flooring companies. Our job was small (1st floor and 1 set of stairs in a rowhouse) so I think some of the bigger flooring guys didn't want to invest their time unless it was financially worth it. Nothing wrong with that; we met some great flooring experts along the way. But in the end, we couldn't afford to spend $3500 for this size of job. I'll be honest, I was a little nervous about hiring the more affordable contractor, but Sam and his workers came so highly recommended, we took the risk. We're so glad we did! They showed up right on time, with all kinds of modern sanding and dust removal / air cleaning equipment. They spent the first 30-60 minutes taping up plastic sheets for dust control throughout the house. The first day consisted of sanding the floor and stairs to remove old finish and uneven spots, and filling gaps or holes (some we pointed out, some Sam found on his own and took care of). Next was lots of air cleaning and vacuuming before putting down the wood sealer. When that was dry, it was buffed out, vacuumed again, and then coated with the first of two layers of top coat. On the second day, they returned in the morning and buffed/vacuumed again in preparation for applying the final finish coat. By lunch time, everything was done and we could (but didn't) walk on it. The job site was all cleaned up and they were gone. That's it! The floor looks beautiful with an even, soft glow, but with the grain and feel of the real wood still intact. We spec'd a satin-finish water-based polyurethane for our top coats. I've seen a number of friends' poorly refinished wood floors and many have missed corners or that thing where so much wood is removed, there a slope down from the baseboards to the center of the room. Not so with Sam and his workers; you can tell they know how to do this right and are real experienced professionals. We'll be hiring them back to do the other two floors in our house soon! Highly recommended."

"I am absolutely floored at the type of work LHI Painting has been able to pull off for me. Simply incredible restoration of the 1st floor of our 3 story suburban. The house is 30+ years old and the husband and wife team of Edwin and Tina pulled off a miracle job. My entire first floor looks very modern now. They have replaced all trim, added crown and put together one of the most amazing finishes that gave the living room this weathered type of look. They have completely restored the rest of the 1st floor with a high end quality paint job. I applaud this company for thinking outside the box and employing women. It is so refreshing to have someone working on your home that you can clearly see is a person that has a good head on their shoulder and are doing an amazing job. Great. Great. Wonderful!"

"I am working to restore an old house in Wilmington. I discovered that I could pull up some old flooring and expose some beautiful old pine floorboards. Leroy at Just Floors went above and beyond to do additional carpentry and refinishing to restore these beautiful floors to their former glory. Definitely recommend."

"Ron was great! He called and came over to the house for an estimate very shortly after I sent the request to Angi. We agreed upon a work date - and he was punctual, clean, and professional. Did a great job on the floors and is highly recommended. I am also going to have him back for other areas of the house to install new hardwoods."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Rockland, DE

Rental sanders can address moderate surface damage, but their effectiveness depends on scratch depth and overall floor condition. Drum sanders offer the most aggressive removal capability for deeper imperfections. However, if the damage extends into the wood structure or affects large portions of the floor, board replacement by an expert might be necessary before sanding. Consult a flooring professional for help.

Always thoroughly review the manufacturer's operating instructions before starting. Wear appropriate safety gear, including goggles to protect your eyes and a respirator to prevent inhalation of dust. Inspect electrical components before each use to prevent shock hazards. Keep children and pets away from the work area, and maintain a clean space by frequently vacuuming dust accumulation to prevent slipping and to ensure you can see well.

Sandpaper requirements depend on floor size, condition, and the sanding approach. Plan to use multiple grit levels (coarse, medium, and fine) with at least one to two sheets per 100 square feet for each grit. Floors with significant damage or multiple finish layers will require more coarse-grit sheets. Purchase extra supplies before beginning because running out mid-project can cause visible inconsistencies in the final result.
