Refinish Your Old Wood Floors

Hardwood floors are a classic, timeless style in any home. Not only do they look beautiful, but they are low maintenance, easy to clean, long lasting and durable. When choosing to install flooring, hardwood is typically a solid choice that comes with many benefits.

Trusted Antique Hardwood Floor Restoration
From Footprints Floors

If you're moving into a home with older hardwood floors, you may find some scratches or wear on them that you want to fix. Even though this natural patina can have a beautiful look, it's still important to keep your hardwood looking good and well-maintained. A great way to do so is through floor refinishing.

Antique hardwood floor refinishing near you in Alexandria doesn't have to be difficult. Although you can do it yourself, hiring professional restoration experts from Footprints Floors is a great way to ensure your timeless floors are taken care of and restored to their original glory.

Benefits Of Restoring Hardwood Floors


Over time, hardwood floors can tarnish and show their age. Replacing hardwood floors can be expensive, and your antique floors can become worth a lot if you take care of them. In that case, refinishing may be a better alternative to replacing your hardwood altogether.

Cost-Effective

Even if you hire professionals like Footprints Floors, refinishing hardwood floors typically ends up costing quite a bit less than installing new hardwood.

Increased Home Value

Solid wood floors are greatly appealing to potential buyers, and taking care of your floors with antique floor refinishing near you is a great way to preserve and add value to your home.

Increased Safety

Damaged floors aren't just an eyesore, they can also bring some big safety concerns. Splinters in the feet, for example, aren't comfortable and could get infected. Antique floors can also be uneven, which may lead to tripping or falls.

Ward Off Pests

Did you know the craters, small holes and crevices that can appear in hardwood floors are a bug's best friend? Termites, ants and decay can wreak havoc on your floors, but regularly refinishing them can seal off bugs and other issues.

Should I Replace or Refinish
My Hardwood Flooring?

When considering an antique hardwood flooring restoration, you may wonder if it's worth the hassle or just better to replace them with new floors altogether.

The decision is ultimately yours, and you can't really go wrong with either choice. Refinishing your floors, however, doesn't have to be the messy process many make it out to be. It also can be a more budget friendly option for those looking to give their existing flooring a sparking new finish.

What To Consider Before Restoring Hardwood Floors

Hardwood floor restoration can be a great way to elevate the look of your home. However, it shouldn't be attempted or done without adequate research and consideration. If you're thinking about going this route, consider the following factors:

Time


Refinishing your hardwood floors isn't a one-day project. After sanding your floors, you will also need to seal them. This sealer will need to be set for at least 24 hours before it's safe to put furniture back into the room. You might not be able to complete it in a day, but refinishing your floors is a doable weekend project if you plan it right.

Equipment


A professional grade sander will be needed for your refinishing project. It's probably not an item you'll want to buy just for a one-time use. Many hardware stores rent these out, or you can contact professionals like those at Footprints Floors to do all the work and have the equipment you need.

Cost


The cost of refinishing hardwood is dependent on a few factors, including the size of the room and sealer needed. For the average cost of a wood floor to be refinished by professionals, it's always best to get a quote to better understand your project.

What Our Customers Say

We contacted Footprints Floors for an estimate and they had someone at our home the following day. Jared arrived promptly at the scheduled time. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly and conscientious about our concerns. He spent a lot of time looking at every inch of the space to ensure that he could provide us with what we were looking for and gave us a very reasonable estimate. The installers were equally knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The work was done efficiently and the area was neat and clean when they were finished. We could not have been any happier with the results. This is the first company we will call if we are ever in need again. We highly recommend them.

They were able to get started on my bathroom floor a week after signing the contract and completed the work in a day and a half. Joel did an excellent job of laying the tile and David does a great job of keeping me informed.

Had LVP flooring installed by Jared and Footprints Floors of Northern Virginia and they did a fantastic job! His team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented, making sure everything was installed perfectly. I was so impressed with their work in my kitchen that I ended up asking them to come back and do the rest of the house. They kept me informed throughout the process and the final result looks amazing. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for quality flooring installation!

My project was replacing the carpet on the basement and stairs with LVPs and hardwood (on the stairs). Jared and his crew did a wonderful job. They were fast and attentive to details. They were also very careful in cleaning up after their work. Jared was fantastic: he provided many useful suggestions for my project. Two thumbs up!!!!

Jordyn Emilee 02/11/25 — google
Jared provided the absolute best flooring experience I could have asked for. He and his crew showed professionalism, courtesy, and attention to detail every step of the way. Regarding price, he was very competitive compared to the bigger, commercial names and provided me a quote below competitors while still providing top tier service and quality. If you’re looking for floors, you won’t regret Footprints Floors.
Rashad Jurdi 01/29/25 — google
Jared and his crew came in and completely transformed the floors of one of my rentals. The original flooring was warped and had water damage. They replaced them with beautiful LVP that is much more durable for a rental that will take a lot of wear and tear. Oh, my floors no longer squeak! I’ll definitely be using Jared and crew for my other investment properties. Good guy and good team.
Clay Bawdy 01/24/25 — google
Jared, Ricky, and team did a phenomenal job with our floors. We worked with footprints to sand, stain, and refinish all hardwood surfaces throughout our home, update the spindles along our staircase, update/upgrade our basement stairs and add new LVP to our foyer. The team was very professional, responsive, organized, and collaborative. They helped us brainstorm solutions and walked us through each step of the project. We’re very happy with our choice to work with Footprints! The finished product looks amazing.

Jared from Footprints did an excellent job locating a specific floor we were looking for. Not only did he find the floor but was able to get it for us at a lower price per square foot than advertised anywhere else. In addition to excellent consultation, the project was managed impeccably. Dates floor materials and installation were met and cost quote for materials and labor were exactly as quoted. The installation was also excellent. The install team worked tirelessly to complete the job in two days. The tem of 3 were curious and friendly. Their workmanship was excellent as they paid attention to every detail. I would recommend Footprints Flooring Jared Hennings and his team to anyone looking to install new flooring. DCox. Woodbridge, VA.

A little pricy but you get what you pay for, they were very professional and friendly and did an excellent job. Also like they they were flexible that I just needed sanding and not all inclusive refinishing
Nicholas Damon 11/8/24 — google
Outstanding craftsmanship and work installing floors throughout our home. Communication could be better to include daily hours of crews and time windows to be home to facilitate house access. Sometimes had to follow-up a few times to confirm an appointment. Amir stopped by to pickup extra flooring, as agreed to. Overall great work and would recommend.
Jeremy Blatt 09/24/24 — google
