Do You Have Damaged Or Worn
Hardwood Floors?

Hardwood floors are timeless, aesthetic flooring options that are made to last; however, they require an occasional refresh to maintain their classic beauty. It is the perfect time to find hardwood floor repair in Chicago if your floors have visible wear, light scuffs or surface damage. At Footprints Floors, we specialize in hardwood floor refinishing in Chicago to restore your timeless hardwood to its former glory. Our flooring contractors specialize in restoring heavily damaged hardwood floors, including rough floors, 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.

How Do You Repair Damaged
Hardwood Floors?

Over time, even the best hardwood floors are subjected to damage. A significant upside to having hardwood floors is that you can often refinish them instead of replacing them entirely. But when it comes to these floors, you need professional hardwood floor repair in Chicago. Refinishing a hardwood floor is a big job that requires furniture moving, floor sanders, protecting your home from dust, handling odors from polyurethane or other finishing products, and more.

Our expert flooring team can help you restore and refinish your floors so that you fall back in love with them at a fraction of the cost of new flooring.

Lower Cost

Refinishing your wood flooring is only a fraction of the cost compared to tearing out and installing new flooring altogether.

Simplicity

Are your floors dingy and scratched? This means your protective top coat has worn down and needs a simple refresh!

Like New

We often hear from customers that they are so glad they refinished or restored their flooring because it feels like new again!

Can You Spot Repair
Damaged Hardwood?

A great thing about hardwood flooring is that scratches and damages are relatively easy to repair. While many people think that flooring repair means complete re-installation, this is a misconception. Depending on how deep the scratches are, your flooring likely only needs a buffing and refinishing. For light hardwood floor scratch repair, Footprints Floors can get the job done quickly. Once our crew has been through with drum sanders, edgers, and a fresh coat of finish, you likely won’t believe that we didn’t completely replace your floor as it will look as new as it did after the original installation!

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.
Rob Stone 08/20/24 — google
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!

Benefits of Hardwood Floors

Low Maintenance And Easy To Clean


If cleanliness is a top priority for you, hardwood floors are an excellent option. Hardwood floors are very straightforward to clean. They can be vacuumed, slept, or steam-cleaned to remove any dirt or debris that has accumulated. You can live at ease with hardwood floors, knowing your floors aren't harboring any environmental hazards or allergies. What makes wood floors easier to maintain is extremely stain resistant, especially compared to carpets. If you spill something, all you need to do is wipe it up!

Strong And Durable


Regardless of how good flooring looks, if the quality and durability don't last, they probably aren't worth it. A primary reason why homeowners choose to upgrade to solid wood floors lies in their durability. Hardwood floors can stand up to active workspaces and heavy foot traffic. By properly caring for your hardwood flooring, keeping them clean and dry, you are guaranteed long-lasting beauty.
