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.

Can You Spot Repair
Damaged Hardwood?

A great thing about hardwood flooring is that scratches and surface damage are often easy to repair. While many people believe floor repair requires a full reinstallation, that’s a common misconception. In most cases, depending on how deep the scratches go, your floors may only need refinishing. If the damage is limited to the finish layer, a Screen and Coat can refresh the surface without sanding down to the wood. For deeper scratches, a full sand and refinish may be necessary. Either way, Footprints Floors can handle the job quickly and professionally. After our crew has gone through with drum sanders, edgers, and a fresh coat of finish, your floors will look as beautiful as the day they were installed—without the cost or hassle of replacing them.

What Our Customers Say

Kyle and Keni did a great job replacing the floors in my condo. They were professional and tried their best to make things work. Very reasonable price for the work and service provided. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needs flooring services.

Sir S 05/22/25 — google
Kyle and team did an incredible job with my floors. My condo building is pretty old and I know the subfloor was a challenge - but it looks absolutely perfect. I had the team remove old carpet to replace with hardwood in the bedroom, and it looks so beautiful I'm seriously thinking about doing the entire condo. Kyle is great to work with and the finished product truly is stunning. I left them to do the work while I was out of town - so I trusted Footprint Flooring completely with my home and they did not disappoint. I loved everything about the process and the finished product, and could not be happier with my choice to work with these guys! Big thanks to them for making my bedroom feel exactly as I wanted it to! 10/10, 5 stars.
Katie Reisinger 05/22/25 — google
Kyle and his team were great to work with! From the initial meeting through to completion, I have no complaints. I went with them because of the very rare negative review and how they responded to/handled it. We had one tiny 'issue', if you can even call it that, with some accidentally missed molding in a closet, and they were back the next day to complete it. The floors look amazing, everything was cleaned up nicely, the team was friendly, and the communication was clear. And they are fast! No hesitations in recommending them!
Lauren Heier 05/18/25 — google
Kyle and his team are fast, efficient and affordable! They were able to squeeze me in the same week as the estimate, which was amazing. They paid excellent attention to detail and kept me posted on every step of the process. Thanks, guys!
Bonnie Caproon 05/7/25 — google
Overall a great experience working with Kyle & his team on the floor repairs in our kitchen area. The team of David & Jose was punctual, thorough, courteous & had all the necessary equipment to complete the job. They showed customer centric attitude & approach. Throughout the process, they updated us on the next steps. The additional work needed was done promptly without hassle. They used quality materials & strived hard to match the existing floor color. Pre & post job interaction with Kyle was professional.
Akshay Deshpande 05/6/25 — google
I had a great experience with Footprints Floors! The whole process was really quick and smooth. I appreciated the transparency with the estimate breakdown, the thoughtful answers to all my questions, as well as the team's flexibility the day of installation (i.e. having to buy an extra box of flooring). My floors look great. I would definitely recommend them!
Ashley Tse 04/28/25 — google
Footprint Floors did an excellent job all the way through my flooring project. Kyle was always available to answer questions, and he was also flexible with scheduling the installation due to a problem with my being able to get the flooring I needed. The installation was great, and I'm very pleased with the way things turned out. I have already contacted Kyle about my next flooring project.
Barry Blackburn 03/27/25 — google
I went with Footprints Floors for my flooring installation in a newly purchased condo and I would recommend them for others looking to do the same. The work done was thorough and professional, completed well within the deadline. From the in-house estimate all the way through project completion, the communication was up front and transparent. I am happy with the choice I made and believe the price I paid was more than fair.
Ryan Dowling 03/26/25 — google

Dan Fisher 03/26/25 — google
It was a great experience working with Kyle and team. They were so fast, clean and did a great job. They ripped out carpet, and installed new hardwood floors & baseboards. Couldn't recommend them enough!
Joe Berenz 03/11/25 — google

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.

BeautifulVariety of Patterns


Hardwood is not a one-size-fits-all type of flooring. Choose between light, dark, streaks, patterns and knots to find the perfect kind of flooring to fit your style.
