Flooring Restoration

With Top Industry Professionals in Kansas City


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 Kansas City 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.

What Our Customers Say

Dan & his crew added on to existing hardwoods in our home, and it tied in perfectly with our existing floors. The timeline and expectations were exactly what he said they would be, and we couldn’t be happier with their work!

Dan and his team are the best! They did a floor repair can hardly tell the difference. Always on time and professional with their work. A++
Jean Carlos Bustamante 11/22/24 — google
The hardwood floors in my vintage 1957 house had never been refurbished in all these years. I cannot tell you how beautiful they are, now. Brand new! The team from Footprints were knowledgeable and offered very good advice choosing the final stain color. No surprises, no unnecessary up-selling.
Carol Kotsifakis 11/10/24 — google
Highly recommend Footprints for your flooring needs! Dan and the team were professional, efficient and took care to get the job done the right way. And to add, they were very tolerant & respectful of my over-anxious puppy dog!
Nancy Colburn 11/8/24 — google
Absolutely the BEST! After a long time comparing flooring materials and choosing solid hardwood, it was time to find the right installer. Footprints Floors had so many 5-star reviews that we were actually suspicious - but they've earned those reviews. From the first measuring/estimate meeting, to the scheduling and preparation and acclimating, to removing all of the old carpet and wood and installing our new floors, Footprints was terrific. Dan and his team are great to work with, delivering on everything they promised, communicating and keeping us informed, and tending to every detail. The service was exceptional, with the old floors ripped out and new ones professionally installed in less than a week. Plus, they paid attention to detail, including replacing the trim work, moving all of our furniture and appliances with care, eliminating 100% of the annoying floor squeaks that we had been enduring for years, and cleaning up after they were done. We can honestly say that we wouldn't have changed a thing about this experience: The service was impeccable, the people are friendly, competent and professional, the price was very competitive, and our new floors look beautiful. We'll certainly be back when it's time for more floor work - because Footprints Floors really is just that good!

Cannot recommend Dan, Jonathan, and team enough, they are simply the best. We were so impressed with our floors that we had them do all of our stairs as well!

Absolutely loved my experience with Footprints Floors! Very easy to work with, professional, and their attention to detail was spectacular! Thank you for the beautiful floor you gave me!
Dr. Marcy Adams 10/15/24 — google
Dan, Jonathan & the entire footprints floors team, were wonderful to work with. They were professional, kind, knowledgeable & easy to communicate with. We were very comfortable having them work in our home. The work the team did was exemplary. We’ve had people comment that they were artisans, because the work they did adding new hardwoods to our home & then tying them into our old ones was so seamless. I am ecstatic about the work that was completed in our home by Footprints Floors! I wish I could give them more than a five star review. I highly recommend this company to anyone considering either refinishing their current hardwoods, or adding hardwoods to their home. It was a pleasure doing business with them!
J Massing 10/14/24 — google
We are very pleased with the care Footprints took with refinishing all of the wood floors in our 100 yo home. They communicated and managed our complex, multi-day project well. During their work, we discovered numerous parts of the floor needed to be replaced. Footprints' lead, Leo, made sure his team did an excellent job. Footprints also worked with us to use a base shoe that matches the original base shoe of our home, and it looks so nice with the newly refinished floors. We highly recommend Footprints.

Jonathan and Juan were great to work with and did an excellent job installing tile on our fireplace surround. Meticulous and fast. Can't recommend this company enough. Dan, the owner took this job on when others had told us it couldn't be done. Thanks to all of you!

I hired Footprints to retile my fireplace hearth. I can't recommend Dan and Footprints enough. They were timely, friendly, cleaned up after themselves and communicated well the whole time. Additionally, the quality they delivered was beyond expectation. I would not hesitate to work with them again.
Anne Schmitz 08/16/24 — google
Professional from start to finish! Very happy with the service and communication. No hidden surprises with this company.
Natalie Suttmoeller 08/3/24 — google
These guys did a phenomenal job tiling my entire basement. They were communicative throughout the entire project keeping me posted on progress and updating me along the way. They were transparent with the pricing and my options and were flexible to help keep things moving forward. I was traveling for two weeks out of the country and trusted them to come and go from my home and they took pics to send me and of course updated me frequently. Highly recommend!
Shawn S 07/30/24 — google
We absolutely love our refinished hardwood floors! Dan did an excellent job with answering all our questions before the project was started. Any time I contacted him, he always returned my calls and answered my texts right away. Jonathan, our project manager, always texted us to provide updates as the work progressed. Leo and his crew worked hard to complete the process in a timely manner. We also had Footprints Floors install porcelain tile in our laundry room and an upstairs bathroom. Juan did an excellent job and is a true professional! We are so pleased with how the tile floors look in both rooms! We would definitely use Footprints Floors for any future work. Everyone we encountered was friendly, professional, and so helpful with everything we asked them to do!
Jeanne Stannard 07/20/24 — google
I had Footprints Floors give me a bid on hard wood throughout my house. They did a great job. I received a high quality product which was installed by superior craftsmen. Dan, the owner of Footprints Floors , was communicative and involved during the process. The new floors are beautiful! I can honestly say that I received what I expected and more. I am very happy. I highly recommend Footprints Floors! Give them a call .
Larry Quick 07/19/24 — google
Great results! Dan. Jonathan. Leo did a great job of communicating with us. Leo went out of his way to make sure I was happy with every move from sanding to stain.
