Floors can be refinished to restore the wood’s original appearance and shine, change its color or finish, or blend to with newly added wood. What’s involved? There are several steps involved in the process of refinishing and recoating, and many depend on the particular home and flooring situation. You should plan on several days for each step – even better, plan to go on vacation and come home to fabulous new floors! The following are the basic steps involved: Step 1: Sand the floors.

Hardwood Floors - Something New and Something Old On this job we took the older hardwood floors from the bedroom and reinstalled in the hallway which is open to the living room. We then installed new oak floors with a custom stain to match the original hardwood flooring from the bedroom. A little bit of repurposing and a little bit of new. We love when we can save old hardwood floors and bring them back to the original shine.

We just completed this refinishing job in Butchertown neighborhood in Louisville. What a fun project. These floors were trashed and all other flooring contractors who bid the job were bidding it recommended a whole new hardwood floor installation on top of the old flooring but we saved the hardwood floors for this customer and saved her thousands of dollars. We also kept a small part of history intact in a historic part of Louisville.
