"George from European Custom Flooring completed a floor refinish in our 1909 Capitol Hill House and did an excellent job. We had a high end floor that needed refurbishing and George and his crew were able to demo our upstairs removing carpet and then was able to refinish the floors underneath to make them look brand new! He was flexible and able to work around our schedule and other contractors. The quality of work was superb and his honest approach to the job was much appreciated. He would keep us informed of the technical details such as the stain and finish types on different types of wood. He was also good about communicating the schedule and his availability. I would recommend him for any small or large job that needs high end attention."

"I recently hired Nova Home Solutions to refinish my white oak floors and the results exceeded my expectations. From the start, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and communicative. They helped me choose the right finish and explained the entire process clearly. The quality of their work is outstanding?the wood now looks rich, smooth, and completely revitalized. You can tell they pay close attention to detail and truly care about the final result. They were also respectful of my space, kept everything clean, and finished the job on time. It?s hard to find a company that combines craftsmanship, professionalism, and reliability, but Nova Home Solutions does just that. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to breathe new life into their wood surfaces. Excellent service all around."

"George cares about the wood. One company came out and measured and left: 15 minutes. George was down on the floor looking at every almost every board: that's why we hired him. He and his crew were on time and on budget which you don't always get these days. The color is exactly what we picked: wood and stains are sometimes highly variable. We highly recommend!"

"We have a 1903 Victorian home. We hired James to remove 2 layers of linoleum and restore the original fir floor in the Kitchen . James was polite, punctual, professional. Very knowledgeable with old wood floors - he explained the process to us - his bid was very reasonable and he was clear about what the additional costs would be when he saw repairs were needed . He was meticulous about keeping the area clean and the rest of the house free from the dust. We will definitely contact him again when we need more floor work done and highly recommend him !"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Seattle, WA

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.
