Hardwood Floor Refinishing in the East Bay
A worn, dull hardwood floor can often be brought back to life without replacing it. Refinishing sands the surface and applies a fresh finish.
Over the years, a hardwood floor collects scratches, dull patches and worn finish, especially in hallways and kitchens. Refinishing removes the old finish and a thin layer of wood, then applies a new finish, so the floor looks fresh and protected again. It is a good option when the boards are in sound shape. A careful assessment comes first, because the floor has to have enough wood left to sand safely.
Assessing the floor
We look at the condition and thickness of the wood and the state of the finish, so you know whether refinishing is the right move.
Sanding and repairs
The old finish is sanded back to bare wood, and small repairs are made so the surface is smooth and even.
Stain and finish
You can keep the natural color or choose a new stain. A protective finish is then applied in coats, with the right drying time between them.
Care after the job
We explain how long to keep traffic off the floor and how to clean it so the new finish lasts.

Everything you need to know before getting started.
Can any hardwood floor be refinished?
Many solid hardwood floors can. It depends on how much wood is left above the nails or tongue, which is why the floor is assessed first.
Can I change the color of my floor?
Usually yes, because sanding takes the floor back to bare wood before a new stain and finish are applied.

Finish needs time to dry and cure. We will tell you what to expect for your job and how to protect the new surface.
