Flooring Restoration

With Top Industry Professionals in Charlotte


Even if you take great care of your hardwood floors, cleaning and polishing them regularly, years of wear and tear take their toll. Or, perhaps you’ve moved recently into an older home with hardwood floors that need more than just dusting and polishing. Either way - it’s time to refinish or restore your floors.

Flooring restoration is a lengthy and laborious process involving sanding, patching, staining and top coating. Even if you’re an accomplished DIY-er, this is not your average weekend project and is best left to the professionals. Ways to mess up your floors lurk at every step of the project.

Common Mistakes Include Uneven Sanding


A drum sander, the most common tool used for this part of refinishing floors, can be rented from most hardware stores. This large piece of equipment weighs a ton and creates a lot of noise and dust. For someone with no experience, wrangling this machine is extremely difficult and can result in scraping away too many layers of wood in spots, leaving sander-shaped impressions across your hardwood floor. They also don’t do a great job in corners and other hard to reach areas. Odd angles and uneven sanding can lead to gouges in your floor. Footprints Floors contractors are highly skilled and have more powerful, higher-quality equipment to sand floors beautifully and evenly.

Common Mistakes Include Dust


That never-ending nemesis, dust. Sanding floors creates a lot of dust particles that have to be meticulously cleaned before proceeding to next steps. If you fail to remove all those little dust specks before staining and finishing your floors, those teeny tiny bits of wood or lacquer will get trapped under the finish, ruining the smooth look you’re after. Footprints Floors contractors have the eye for detail and dedication you need to make sure your floors are dust free before anything else is applied.

Common Mistakes Include Bad Application of Stain and/or Finish


Footprints Floors has access to a wider range of products for stains and finishes than you’ll find at your local hardware store. Not only more color and style options, but higher quality formulas that last longer, dry faster and frankly look better. In addition to using high quality products on your floors, Footprints Floors contractors are trained in the best techniques for applying stains and finishes. A common problem seen in DIY flooring restoration is peeling finish. Other rookie mistakes include applying too many layers of finish without letting it dry in between applications. Instead of the sleek, shiny floors of your dreams, poorly finished floors will quickly look dull, dirty and potentially damaged.

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 in Charlotte 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.

We had a wonderful experience with footprints floor. I had my upstair hardwoods redone to match my downstairs. They did an excellent job. They were prompt, professional and the price was very fair. I will definitely use them for future projects 😊
Carolyn Wray 04/4/24 — google
It was great doing business with footprint floors. They just finished a renovation project in our master bathroom, including floor, wall, and shower tile replacement. The workmanship was outstanding, and the workers were excellent and Engaged. Brandon kept a close eye on the project throughout, and the workers were very respectful to keep our property cleaned up day today. I would highly recommend footprint floors for any tile project.
Joe Ducey 03/30/24 — google
Footprints installed new hardwoods in our kitchen and refinished the wood floors in the rest of the house to match. They did an excellent job and were right on time with the project. We were able to schedule the project quickly after deciding to proceed. Everyone who worked on the project worked very hard. They made it very easy to do a couple extra small projects while we were out of the house. Small, inevitable issues were very easily and quickly resolved. Highly recommend Footprints!

We had an excellent experience with Footprint Floors. Darrin and Brandon were a joy to team with. They both were very professional and knowledgeable. They went the extra mile when we had any questions or concerns and were always quick to respond. Their talented crew was prompt, friendly and did a great job cleaning up every day. I would highly recommend them and won't hesitate to contact them for future projects.
Laura Elliott 03/10/24 — google
We have used Brandon and Footprints for four jobs now over the past couple of years and they do such a great job and are so easy to work with. We’ve done two bathroom renovations, a hardwood replacement and now a hardwood refinish/restain to modernize and lighten, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! The pictures speak for themselves (before > after). Brandon is the first person we call when we have a project for tiling or hardwoods!
David Meissner 03/9/24 — google
Brandon was awesome to work with. He came and measured my area for laminate flooring and it was installed a week later. He is a excellent communicator and guides you through the process so you know what to expect until completion. I highly recommend using Footprints Floors and would use them again!
Marsha Warrick 03/7/24 — google
I highly recommend footprints flooring. Brandon and his team did an amazing job installing LVP throughout the entire downstairs of our home. In 1 day. As well as sanding and staining our stairs to match the new floors. The entire process was done quickly and professionally. They were on time, everyone was great and they cleaned up after the job was done.
Ron Rossi 02/12/24 — google
We have a sunroom with a concrete floor and wanted to enhance the look of the room and decided to tile the floor. We selected a tile from Floor & Decor and I requested quotes from 3 installation companies and none of them were as professional as Footprints. They started the project when they said they would and completed on schedule. Everybody was very professional, friendly and cared about their work. They kept the space very clean and the owner followed up daily to ensure we were satisfied and to answer any questions. Footprints was price comparable, did what and when they said they would and truly appreciated our business. We will definitely use them on our next project!
Kevin Kochanski 02/9/24 — google
Highly recommend! Darrin and Brandon and the whole Footprints crew are awesome. We had carpet removed and hardwoods installed in the entire second floor of our home. The process was exactly as described and stayed on schedule. Brandon was by our home daily to check on progress, provide updates and ensure that the crew had what they needed to get the job done. We had hardwoods on our first floor and in the hallways upstairs and the new floors match them perfectly in terms of both stain and finish. They look like they’ve always been there. We are thrilled with our new floors and excited to move back in upstairs and start enjoying them. It’s so refreshing to work with a contractor who sets expectations and sticks to them in terms of timeline. It made what can be a stressful process manageable! Thanks to the whole crew! Will upload some photos soon.

Terri Eden 01/5/24 — google
Footprints Floors was the best bathroom remodel I have ever used. Brandon McBrier did a fantastic job. He brought in tile people, the plumber and painters. They were at the house when they said they would be there. They finished the job when listed on the contract. And the price was so very reasonable. I will always call Brandon for future work. Thank you so very much. He is excellent!!!!!

Had a terrific experience with this company. They replaced an old backsplash in my kitchen with subway tile. Love the finished look, has really updated the area. From the salesman and project manager to the installers, they were professional, friendly and communicative throughout the process. Fast appointment for installation. Would definitely use Footprint Floors for any future projects!

Footprints floors Did an excellent job very fast?
Tom Machin 11/27/23 — google
Footprint Floors installed LVP tile flooring in our remodeled laundry room. It required the removal of a portion of the subfloor and laying new underlayment boards prior to installing the LVP. We are very happy with the results and highly recommend them as flooring installers!
Greg Crystal 11/25/23 — google
They were fast, efficient, reasonably priced and did a great job. Having worked with MANY contractors, the bar is on the floor, but this flooring company treated it like it was on the roof. Very pleased.

I have nothing but good things to say about Footprints Floors of Charlotte. They were very professional, did a great job, very responsive, and did an all around amazing job. I have no reason to go to any other companies for my floors. I recommend them to everyone.
Richard Curtis 11/15/23 — google
Amazing, highly skilled TEAM of Professionals. Our "screened-in porch" came alive when FFC put down our new "Tile Floor". The precision was masterful. Their work ethic and ability to produce what they committed to has to be the BEST in the industry. Plus, they were very easy to work which made there project a true pleasure! As my neighbor commented, "WOW"!
