"Our 25-year-old built-in refrigerator has been leaking for a while and warped the wood underneath it and crept out in front a bit. We moved the fridge and had Mr. Estrada do a light repair and refinish on the area. The BEST part of this was I searched on ANGI, he showed up, responded within the hour and after I sent him a video of what I wanted, he gave me a fair quote and "I can do this tomorrow," which just happened to be the day before Thanksgiving. He showed up, did the work well, and we are now having him bid on refinishing the floors in the rest of our house. I personally appreciate that he's an entrepreneur and set up his own business."

"Due to the amount of rain we received this past winter, the moisture underneath my house evaporated into the sub flooring, which caused my hardwood floors to buckle. I got several estimates and decided to hire Teo to do the repairs and refinishing. His estimate was 1/3 of the price of the bigger companies. He completed all of the work himself in 3 days. He was on time, very professional, explain the process of wha needed to be done very clearly. I'm soooo happy with my floors. I highly recommend him for any job you might have."

"Refinished floor looks excellent. Three coats of polyurethane appears better than original factory prefinish, more resistant to wear and damage. Cody is very good to work with. Highly recommended.,"

"My husband and I finally came around to updating our flooring and found Carpeteria Carpet One through a friend that had previously used them (and was beyond happy). We could not say better things about our experience with this location and the service. Gary helped us through the entire process and not only made us feel at ease, but gave us unbeatable pricing. The staff was knowledgable and truly listened to what we were looking for regards to types of carpet and of course accommodating our budget. The entire process from the service, to the installation, and the final product was beyond seamless and refreshing. Thank you Carpeteria Carpet One!

"I had a great experience working with Guilherme and his team at GB Flooring. I was initially hesitant due to his limited reviews, but his 10+ years of experience, including projects on PLNU buildings, gave me confidence in his work. Our project involved removing the particle board and tile that made up the original subfloor of our condo and replacing it with a new plywood subfloor. The team then leveled the floor before installing new LVP flooring along with newly painted baseboards and quarter round molding. Guilherme and his team worked quickly and efficiently, completing the entire project in about 4.5 consecutive days. They were punctual every day and the quality and attention to detail were excellent. They were also very courteous and respectful of our HOA noise requirements, working within allowed hours without issue. Guilherme was transparent and easy to work with, and the project ultimately came in within our budget. I would highly recommend GB Flooring for your projects."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in San Diego, CA

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.
