Flooring Restoration

With Top Industry Professionals in Omaha


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 Omaha 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

After a botched job preparing our basement for flooring by another company, Brandon came in and fixed and finished the job beautifully. Out of all the workers we’ve dealt with as we finished our basement, Brandon was the most communicative, most professional, and did the job so fast. I’d use him again everyone we need flooring.

First, Brandon responded to our inquiry promptly and was always responsive via text or email. We had a huge project: In an existing, 80-year-old home, level the floor and replace 700 square feet of vinyl plank flooring in the basement with ceramic tile; refinish several hundred feet of *really* beat up hardwood floors on the main; and demo/install 200 square feet of new tile in the kitchen. Brandon was honest and up front about our options, price considerations, deliverable timeframes, and owner costs/responsibilities. He required us to do an asbestos test, which was actually comforting and a reflection of the overall professionalism of the company. He contacted other industry representatives to ensure he was utilizing best practices/meeting minimum code requirements. The total completion of work took about a month. Partially due to availability of the crews, and partially just the scope of the work.. They spent a week on each of the separate project phases. That felt a little long, but it is hard to argue with the quality of the work. The crews were all professional, easy to communicate with, and responsive. We strongly recommend and have already referred other potential customers to FF. When we have future flooring projects to take on, will be utilizing Footprint Floors exclusively.

Brandon was in my area on a Saturday and offered to come look at my floors so I didn't have to wait until the following week. Half of our basement was carpeted and the other half was unfinished. Ultimately we ended up going with carpet because of foundation issues but Brandon was extremely knowledgeable and provided great advice on what would need to be done for flooring. He was very transparent and honest about not cutting corners just to get the business. We'll definitely be giving Brandon a call when we remodel our floors on the main level.
Ryan Pitkin 08/21/24 — google
Brandon and his team did an excellent job on our engineered wood flooring install. The craftsmanship is fantastic, and they accommodated my request for flush transitions, which was very important to me. Brandon took the time to ensure he was meeting all of the manufacturers specifications for the flooring install, and explained to us the advantages/disadvantages of the various installation methods allowed. He communicated well throughout the entire process, and was always on time for appointments. Additionally, he's just a really nice guy, and someone we felt very comfortable with having in our home. For example, when he was stopping by to pick something up one day, he noticed we had a large package delivered and offered to help carry it up into our house. We will definitely hire Footprints Omaha for any future work we have, and recommend them to friends and family.

Brandon and his crew did an excellent job. Our hardwood floors were extensively damaged. Brandon was able to adjust schedules to get our floors totally refinished to our liking. The crew was hard working, always on time, and very professional. We are so impressed with Brandon, his crew, the company, and the amazing workmanship. We would use them again and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone
Kevin Borcher 06/7/24 — google
From start to finish, those with Footprints Floors were exceptionally friendly, helpful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. Their task was to tear out carpeting and lay vinyl flooring, including ¼ rounds and transition pieces on about 1,500 sq ft. It was done beautifully, and incredibly, in just over 4 days. I would recommend them to my friends in a New York minute.
