Restore Your Hardwood Floors in Kaysville, UT With Expert Refinishing

Our step-by-step refinishing process

1. Floor inspection and repair: We assess the full condition of your floors, identify loose boards, water damage, or deep gouges, and make any needed repairs before the sanding process begins.
2. Sanding: We sand the floor down to bare, clean wood, removing the old finish, surface scratches, and discoloration so your floors are ready for a fresh start.
3. Staining: You choose the stain color. We apply it evenly and consistently across the entire floor so every plank is uniform, smooth, and beautifully finished.
4. Protective finish coat: A durable finish is applied to seal and protect the wood, providing the sheen, strength, and longevity your floors deserve.

Signs your hardwood floors are ready for refinishing

Not sure whether your floors need a simple screen and recoat or a full sand and refinish? Here are the most common signs we see that indicate it is time to refinish your hardwood floors:

• Visible scratches, scuffs, or gouges that do not buff out
• A dull, gray, or faded finish that no longer reflects light
• Water stains or dark discoloration in the wood
• Uneven color caused by sun exposure or furniture wear patterns
• An outdated stain color you want to update or change completely
• Floors that feel rough or gritty underfoot despite regular cleaning

If any of these sound familiar, reach out to us. We are always happy to walk your floors and give you an honest assessment of what they need, and what they do not. We will never recommend more work than is necessary.

Hardwood refinishing vs. replacement: which is right for you?

This is one of the most common questions we hear, and the answer depends on the current condition of your floors. In most cases, refinishing is the smarter choice. It costs significantly less than a full replacement, takes less time, and produces results that are just as beautiful. Refinishing also avoids the waste and disruption of tearing out and reinstalling hardwood that still has years of life left in it.

Solid hardwood floors can typically be refinished six to eight times over their lifetime, which means a well-maintained floor can last well over a century. Engineered hardwood can also be refinished, depending on the thickness of the top veneer layer. We can assess your floors and tell you exactly what is possible and what will give you the best long-term result.

Common questions about hardwood floor refinishing

How long does hardwood floor refinishing take?

Most hardwood floor refinishing projects take between two and five days, depending on the size of the area, the condition of the floors, and the type of finish used. Oil-based finishes typically take longer to dry than water-based finishes. We give you a clear timeline before we begin so there are no surprises.

How much does hardwood floor refinishing cost?

The cost of refinishing hardwood floors depends on the square footage, the condition of the floors, the stain and finish selected, and whether any board repairs are needed. Refinishing is almost always more affordable than replacement. We provide free in-home estimates so you get an accurate, transparent quote with no hidden charges.

Can I change the stain color when refinishing?

Yes. One of the best things about the refinishing process is that you can completely change the color of your floors. Whether you want to go lighter, darker, or switch to a completely different finish, sanding gives us a clean slate to work from. Our team will walk you through color options and help you find the look that fits your home.

What is the difference between a screen and recoat and a full sand and refinish?

A screen and recoat is a lighter process that buffs the surface and applies a fresh finish coat without sanding all the way down to bare wood. It works well for floors that are still in generally good condition but have lost their sheen. A full sand and refinish removes more material, addresses deeper scratches and stains, and allows for a color change. We can assess your floors and recommend the right approach.
