Refinish Your Floors

With Top Industry Professionals in Chicago


Hardwood floors are beautiful—there's nothing quite like the smooth rich-colored surface. With time, though, hardwood floors see their fair share of wear and tear. Scratched, worn, and unsightly hardwood floors are not uncommon. While they may look damaged and completely unfixable, Footprints Floors can take care of floor refinishing and floor restoration in your Chicago home, bringing your floors back to life.

It's amazing what simple sanding and fresh coats of finish can do to hardwood floors. Cracks, scratches, and other blemishes can be buffed out and polished to look brand new. A damaged floor doesn't always necessarily mean a re-installation is necessary. If you are unsure whether your floor is salvageable or not, simply give Footprints Floors a call. We can assess the state of your floor and help you determine if floor refinishing is possible, no matter the type of hardwood flooring you have.

Wood Floor Repair


During a floor refinishing service, we repair and revitalize your wood floors. If you think your wood floor is too damaged for repair, don't worry! We can probably make your floors shine like they're brand new.

If you aren't sure whether your floors are salvageable or not, our team is here to help. We can fix most of the damage you can find on wood floors. Anything too significant can be replaced, but most of the time the significant damage is confined to a small area. Our team may be able to replace just a few planks, restore the rest of the floor, and refinish the entire floor to match, saving you the cost of a complete re-installation.

Wood Floor Refinishing


Hardwood floors are a timeless, aesthetic flooring option and are made to last. However, they do require an occasional refresh to maintain their classic beauty. Our wood floor refinishing service takes the old, dull finish of your wood floors and revitalizes them. We give your wood floors a brand new finish that brings out the original shine and color of your wood floors. Refinishing wood floors is a great way to invest in your Chicago home. Make your floors look brand new with a fresh refinish.

Wood floors are resilient and worth putting money into to preserve their beauty and use. Refinishing is often the first line of defense to prevent extensive and expensive damage. You may think your floor needs a complete replacement, but that may not be the case. If your hardwood floors have visible wear, light scuffs, or surface damage, it is the perfect time to refinish. We will have them looking like new and making great impressions in no time. A simple refinish is less expensive and cost-effective in preserving the integrity of your wood floors. At Footprints Floors we specialize in hardwood floor refinishing in Chicago to restore your timeless hardwood to its former glory.

Wood Floor Restoration


If the damage is deeper from moving furniture, large dogs, or years of wear, we can help! Our flooring contractors specialize in restoring heavily damaged hardwood floors in Footprints Floors, including floors that are rough, have bare/stripped wood or deep scratches and gouges. We will restore those gorgeous hardwood floors to that smooth finish and beautiful shine that you remember. Get ready to fall in love with your floors all over again.

Our floor restoration contractors in Chicago are true experts in restoring the quality and integrity of your floors. We get your hardwood floors back to the way they were when first installed or in an entirely new modernized finish! Our professional craftsmen have years of experience in restoring hardwood. Only in severe cases is a complete re-installation necessary — we will never sell you on a re-installation unless your floors are beyond repair.

We also work with antique wood floors, and we can bring back the original color and state of old wood flooring.

Great Floors & Great Impressions Are What We Are All About!

Kyle and Footprints Flooring is a wonderful resource for flooring needs. We were offered substantial direction and support with a flooring need that we ran across and we were very happy with the service, affordability and turn around. I highly recommend this company.

Jean Jacques Garcon 10/14/24 — google
Used Footprint Floors to have our backsplash installed. Had a wonderful experience with Kyle and his craftsman Tomacz. They took great care and the final product turned out exactly as we would have hoped. Highly recommend.
Michael Temple 10/8/24 — google
I wanted a flooring company to install Karndean Glue-down LVP in my kitchen so I got quotes from a couple different companies. I decided to go with Footprints Floors for three reasons: the quote was lower than the other company; they got great reviews online; and Kyle, the owner, seemed extremely knowledgeable about glue-down LVP installations. It also helped that he was very responsive whenever I had any questions. In the end, Kyle's team did an amazing job preparing and installing the plywood underlayment, filling in huge gaps in the subfloor, installing the LVP, and making the transition pieces. My expectations are pretty high when it comes to quality of work, and if anything didn't look right, I would have asked for it to be redone. The good news is that the installation was perfect! I plan to use them again for my basement floor (when the time comes).
Lyle Kay 09/27/24 — google
We needed 117-year-old floors refinished and restored and the result is amazing. Pawel is an artist, and was able to get problem areas fixed, repair some areas, and do it all with care, precision and expert craftsmanship. Kyle the owner is easy to work with and helpful with great advice. It’s not cheap to refinish floors, but this was totally worth it!
Tom W 09/27/24 — google
One of the most important things when working with a company that has to do repairs/replacements at your home is their ability to communicate. Kyle was outstanding in this regard with my floor replacement. He kept me informed at every step of the process, answering all my questions promptly and clearly. He understood the process of working with the insurance company and helped to provide everything they requested. He provided samples and quality insight into the flooring options that would be beneficial to a growing family. Tomas, the person who worked on the floor, did an excellent job, demonstrating skill and attention to detail. He was also very respectful of my home. Overall, Footprints Floors exceeded my expectations with their dedication to customer satisfaction and high-quality work.
BOB SAGGET 09/24/24 — google
Kyle and his team were great to work with. Very professional and helpful, told me what material to buy and how much of each, and answered my questions every step of the way. Our new kitchen floor looks great!
Lorelei Ermentrout 09/5/24 — google
Kyle and his team were amazing from start to finish. Everything was handled professionally and communication was clear every step of the way. The crew worked efficiently and the installation was beautiful. You will be in good hands with Footprints Floors—highly recommended.

Excellent and affordable. Insured and personable.
Ginger SM 08/20/24 — google
Kyle and Footprints Floors did an amazing job restoring our hardwood floors in our Bucktown home after years of wear and tear. Kyle was great to work with as well. He is punctual, personable, provided a quick and fair quote, and his craftsmanship was impeccable - our floors truly looked brand new after he finished them. I highly recommend working with Kyle and Footprints Floors if you are in need of floor refinishing!
Katie Creagh 08/13/24 — google
Our floors look fantastic and they were incredibly easy to work with. Highly recommend!
Ali Galloway 08/13/24 — google
Kyle & his team assisted us with re purposing our hard wood floors, and installed a beautiful backsplash for us. The work is stellar and would recommend to anyone.
Michael Nolan 08/5/24 — google
I’m so happy with my experience with Footprints Floors. Kyle was very responsive and helped me plan a large hardwood floor and intricate mosaic tile floor refinish in a short window between closing on home and my move-in. The floors were done on time and at a very fair cost. Hugo is very talented and his attention to detail with his work shows. I will reach out again for all of my future floor jobs.
Andrew Knapp 07/30/24 — google
Footprints Flooring is amazing. Kyle responded to our request for a quote immediately and when he visited, he also saved us a significant amount of money by pointing out that we had been over sold by our flooring dealer. When it came to installation, Kenni, who was our installer, provided excellent service. He was reliable and paid a lot of attention to detail. He also was careful in his use of materials so that in the end we had 3 boxes of flooring and extra sound barrier to return to the dealer for refund. As to price, Footprints is great value for money, the bid was reasonable and was exactly as promised. The finished floor looks great and I can only recommend this company as one of the best home improvement companies that it has been my pleasure to work with!
