"Jeff is extremely attentive to detail and supervised every phase of the job. We purchased a home that had cupped wood flooring was and discolored and worn. In addition one of the guest rooms had carpet that transitioned into a wood floor hallway. Jeff was able to refinish the existing flooring and integrate the new wood floor seamlessly, you could not distinguish the transition. He also identified the moisture problem contributing to the cupping of the flooring. Jeff also installed carpet in the 2 bonus rooms and did a magnificent job as well. If you are looking for attention to detail and superior craftsmanship Jeff is your go to contractor."

"My contractor was Deep Rooted Flooring and our contact was Christian. We were contacted by him and discussed replacing a floor around the commode in the bathroom. I asked him to view the project and give us an estimate. He was very quick with his estimate and made us aware of work that needed to be done in the adjacent room because of the deteriorated floor. He didn’t Pressure us or anything about the extra work, he just made us aware of the condition with a description and pictures. It was our decision to go ahead with The additional work. The estimate came in at a reasonable price. He was at the job site at the time he said and completed the job quickly. He was knowledgeable About flooring and the type that should be used. He was cordial and answered all of our questions. We were very satisfied with the job as completed, in fact They did a couple of additional items we did not expect. I would recommend him for any flooring work and give him your highest rating. Tommy Combs"

"Cory and his crew did an excellent job at my home. They installed additional insulation in my attic, cleaned out my dryer vent, cleaned out my gutters and unclogged 13 years' worth of soil and tree debris from my downspout. They did all of this in about 2 hours for a reasonable price and were friendly and professional. I would hire them again and I highly recommend them!ð"

FAQs for wood flooring refinish projects in Wilmington, NC

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.
