"Our entire second floor needed a combination of ripping out carpet, patching weird missing holes of hardwood, installing hardwood into our master bedroom & closet, refinishing, and staining it all to perfectly match our living room. Everything was completed in 8 days, the exact time frame that was originally quoted. The work they completed is stunning. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in the Chicagoland area looking for professional, local, and quality flooring services."

"The work was perfect. Marcin was punctual, polite, and paid meticulous attention to detail. Work area was well protected and cleaned at the end of each day. Design advice was given (iron vs. wood balusters). I would definitely hire this company again."

"Itâ s been 5 years since Dana did our floors and stairs in a major renovation. I promised a review when they were done and felt compelled to follow through. While we are happy with all the work, my wife recently said she is happiest with the floors. They were stripped and stained impeccably and have stood the test of time. I highly recommend Dana and L & S Hardwood!"

"How did it go? It went great. Mr. Batten is very professional, on time, and his team worked quickly. I can't imagine being more pleased with Ray's service from the start to finish. I would recommend Razor Rock to anyone I know looking to have a word-class job done on their garage flooring. Thanks again for the stellar floor :-)"

"Mr. Arreguin did an amazing job of refinishing a hardwood entrance door and also repairing a cracked door frame. The door is like new. I also appreciate the excellent customer service and communication with Vanessa at his office regarding appointment times. I'm considering JCA for other wood working projects in my home."

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Wilmington, IL

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.
