Is it cheaper to refinish a wood floor or replace it?
It is almost always significantly cheaper to refinish. Refinishing can save you up to 70% compared to the cost of hardwood floor installation NYC. Our team can evaluate if your boards are thick enough for another sand-down.
Can I stay in my house while floors are refinished?
While you can stay, we recommend being out of the house during the sanding and staining phase due to noise and fumes. As a leading wood floor refinishing company, we work efficiently to get you back into your space as quickly as possible.
When should you not refinish hardwood floors?
You should not refinish if the wood is too thin (less than 1/8 inch of wear layer) or if there is structural rot. In these cases, Houm Painting and Wallpapering NYC can provide a quote for a new hardwood floor installation.
What floor never goes out of style?
Solid hardwood with a natural or light oak stain is the ultimate timeless choice. Our flooring team can help you select a stain that highlights the natural beauty of your wood while keeping your home looking modern and fresh.
