We Refinish Solid & Site-Finished Wood Floors
Not all wood floors are the same — and we tailor our refinishing approach based on wood type and construction. We commonly refinish:
- Solid hardwood floors
- Unfinished hardwood floors
- Select site-finished floors
Popular Species:
- Oak (Red & White)
- Maple
- Hickory
- Walnut
- Ash
Each species absorbs stain differently, which is why expert sanding and stain testing are essential for consistent, beautiful results.
Character & Grade
From Clean & Classic to Rustic & Natural
Refinishing allows you to showcase (or minimize) the natural characteristics of your wood floors:
- Knots and mineral streaks
- Grain movement
- Color variation
- Natural imperfections
Whether your style is sleek and modern or warm and rustic, we help you customize the final look.
Plank Width Matters
Highlight Your Style Through Proportions
The width of your planks plays a big role in your floor’s overall style:
- Narrow planks (2.25"–4") = Traditional, timeless look
- Wider planks (5"–9") = Open, modern feel
- Mixed-width layouts = Unique, custom appearance
While refinishing doesn’t change plank size, the right stain and sheen can enhance how your floors appear visually.

Customize Finish, Texture & Sheen
Get the Perfect Look for Your Lifestyle
With sanding and refinishing, you can choose the finish and texture that best fits your space and maintenance needs.

Popular Sheen Options:
- Matte – Modern, low-maintenance
- Satin – Soft shine, versatile
- Semi-gloss – Balanced and classic
- Gloss – High shine, formal
We’ll help you choose a finish that works with your lighting, traffic, and aesthetic goals.
