Flooring Restoration

With Top Industry Professionals in Little Rock


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 Little Rock 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

We have used this company twice. Once to remove and install new hardwood floors and to remove carpet from stairs to install hardwood-stained treads and painted risers. Martin & his crew were always on time and did excellent work. We love this company.

Martin did a great job from start to finish. Work was completed as promised. Everything went smooth and on time. Very professional and I highly recommend
Tim Spraggins 05/9/25 — google
I had a fantastic experience with the company. They were professional, punctual, and very accommodating throughout the entire process. Martin, the owner, truly went above and beyond. He not only understood the needs of the project and applied his expertise thoughtfully, but he also made sure I was completely satisfied with the results. He graciously shared his knowledge and advice, and when I reached out to have him take a final look before using the floor, he came personally and took care of the last touch-ups. It’s clear he takes great pride in his work and stands behind it. My sunroom looks gorgeous!😍 Highly recommend!

We needed the floor tile replaced in our master bath. We solicited several quotes mostly to find a knowledgeable contractor. Our meeting with Martin of Footprint Floors showed that he knew exactly what was needed and how to properly handle the project. I picked out the tile and we set a date for the install. His installers did a great job in less than a day! We are extremely pleased with the results and would heartily recommend Footprints.

They showed up at the time they set. They were very nice and explained everything they were going to do. Cleaned up everything when done with the job. The best part is I was able to buy the materials needed without an up charge like other companies do. Yes I highly recommend them.

They were very quick to respond and do an estimate on repairing and replacing some water damaged wood flooring. The repairs worked great and the new tile in the bathroom is fabulous. Very happy.

I hired Footprints Flooring to install a tile floor in my newly renovated kitchen. Martin provided clear details during the estimate phase, and worked with me to understand what I wanted and how best to achieve it. The team arrived on a Tuesday with an expected 2.5 day turnaround. They worked diligently and professionally and let to the timeline. Communication throughout the project was timely and clear, and my floor looks amazing!
Sara Castleberry 12/19/24 — google
Excellent workmanship, price and customer service/communication. Martin showed up, was extremely knowledgeable and on his game. I accepted the bid, and we hammered out a start date. He and his crew showed up and the job was done in 2 days like he said. The two-man crew left behind to do the job where both quick, polite and professional, they even took the time to line up lines in the tile which really made the cheap home-depot tile pop and look good. Would absolutely use again, it was an honor to work with such consummate professionals. I can't believe I wasted my time talking to others.
David Pointer 12/6/24 — google
