"I can’t say enough about how happy we are with the job completed by Igor and his crew! We did a lot of research before entrusting them with our new home as we needed a lot done. We had our staircase completely replaced, new wood flooring on our second floor landing, and sanding and refinishing to a lighter color in our family room, dining room and foyer. We also had LVP installed in our kitchen and everything looks amazing! Here are some highlights about the job: - Excellent work for excellent value - Igor really cares about his customers! For example, he suggested during mid-job I replace my old posts and handrails instead of sanding and refinishing and adjusted the price down. They worked extra hours to get things right. He hired a painter to fix patching and painting we should have expected from the staircase demo. He helped us clean the dust and addressed touch ups - From quote through completion they were done in less than two weeks and this was a big job. - Highly recommend!"

"We had about seven people come in to give us quotes over two weeks ago. I haven’t even heard from them or received a quote. One guy told us we would have to go to a lumberyard by all the material bring it home. Floor builders came gave us a quote on the spot, said they would bring all the materials and had samples of flooring to pick out. It was exactly how it should be. Everything was provided, and the process was very easy. They worked very hard and were in and out in two days and went above and beyond to move things."

"I purchased a multifamily house with 2 stories. The 2nd floor had 1 inch original hardwood from 1920 that laid on the floor joists so you could hear every footstep downstairs and my tenants almost moved out. I hired Cesar to take on a tedious and technical ceiling soundproofing technique for the apartment using RSCI rubber clips, hat channels, insulation, and making the 1st floor airtight. I was so impressed with how he was able to juggle handling my tenant for 2 weeks, compensating for delayed shipping by driving 3 hours to New York and picking up the materials himself to make sure we meet the deadline, redoing 1 entire room at his loss and not charging me for it because the original technique we tried did not work, and listening and working with me to make sure we didn't miss any details that would cause sound transfer (and this was impressive because I am very detail oriented). My tenants moved in and were very impressed by the finished looked of the new ceilings and crown molding. We saw a sound improvement of about 15 STC in both airborne and impact noise. It cut down sound transfer by 2/3 in the 1st floor apartment. I will be adding rubber underlayment upstairs underneath the new flooring to completely block out the rest of the impact noise that transfers from the floor above to the walls downstairs that support it! I'll be calling Cesar and his crew again."

"My husband and I, just bought our first home together and we wanted to have the floors stained to our tastes before moving in. Selecta Flooring was able to give us estimates based on photos & floor plan and even came the same day as our closing for the formal walk through. They started the very next day and it only took 4 days from start to finish. We love our new floors and would definitely recommend!"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in South Orange, NJ

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.
