Refinish Your Old Wood Floors

Hardwood floors are a classic, timeless style in any home. Not only do they look beautiful, but they are low maintenance, easy to clean, long lasting and durable. When choosing to install flooring, hardwood is typically a solid choice that comes with many benefits.

Trusted Antique Hardwood Floor Restoration
From Footprints Floors

If you're moving into a home with older hardwood floors, you may find some scratches or wear on them that you want to fix. Even though this natural patina can have a beautiful look, it's still important to keep your hardwood looking good and well-maintained. A great way to do so is through floor refinishing.

Antique hardwood floor refinishing near you in Raleigh doesn't have to be difficult. Although you can do it yourself, hiring professional restoration experts from Footprints Floors is a great way to ensure your timeless floors are taken care of and restored to their original glory.

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 near you 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.

Should I Replace or Refinish
My Hardwood Flooring?

When considering an antique hardwood flooring restoration, you may wonder if it's worth the hassle or just better to replace them with new floors altogether.

The decision is ultimately yours, and you can't really go wrong with either choice. Refinishing your floors, however, doesn't have to be the messy process many make it out to be. It also can be a more budget friendly option for those looking to give their existing flooring a sparking new finish.

What To Consider Before Restoring Hardwood Floors

Hardwood floor restoration can be a great way to elevate the look of your home. However, it shouldn't be attempted or done without adequate research and consideration. If you're thinking about going this route, consider the following factors:

Time


Refinishing your hardwood floors isn't a one-day project. After sanding your floors, you will also need to seal them. This sealer will need to be set for at least 24 hours before it's safe to put furniture back into the room. You might not be able to complete it in a day, but refinishing your floors is a doable weekend project if you plan it right.

Equipment


A professional grade sander will be needed for your refinishing project. It's probably not an item you'll want to buy just for a one-time use. Many hardware stores rent these out, or you can contact professionals like those at Footprints Floors to do all the work and have the equipment you need.

Cost


The cost of refinishing hardwood is dependent on a few factors, including the size of the room and sealer needed. For the average cost of a wood floor to be refinished by professionals, it's always best to get a quote to better understand your project.

What Our Customers Say

We hired Footprints to replace the flooring in our new home and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Shawna was incredibly communicative throughout the process, letting us know what to expect, notifying us whenever they discovered an issue and what was being completed each day. There were multiple issues with our subflooring but the team was able to fix each of them and still finish by the original timeline! Our floors and stairs look amazing and working with Shawna, Amanda and their crew was an absolute pleasure! 20/10 would recommend to anyone!

Had a great experience with Footprints and Amanda’s team. We purchased Mohawk Laminate Wood Flooring from Costco for our Bonus Room (over 300sqf). We also wanted the carpeted stairs (to Bonus) replaced with Oak Hardwoods with stain that match the rest of the house. Footprints finished the job in 2 days. The workers were professional and polite, the communication from start of the job (quote) to end (making sure we were happy with the work) was great. Love, love my new flooring!
Alex Flynn 03/6/24 — google
My wife and I recently decided to remove the carpet from our bedroom and replace with hardwood-style laminate. Neither of us have ever looked into any sort of “flooring” job, and had no idea what to expect, as far as cost, timeline, options, etc. We came across Footprint Floors, and decided to get a consult from them. Simply from the consult, we immediately knew we wanted to go with Footprint! Amanda came out and spoke with us, patiently answered all of our questions, and explained everything thoroughly. She had samples, talked us through the different styles and what worked best for us, and helped us settle on the perfect one! Only a short (roughly) two-weeks later, and the entire job was completed with perfection! Between the consult, the ordering process, the initial work, and the final completion, Amanda and her team were phenomenal, and updated us every step of the way. They were quick, incredibly communicative, and cost efficient! The floors in our bedroom look incredible, and we could not have asked for a better experience. 10/10 job, and would definitely recommend to anyone that has interest in redoing their floors. Next time we need any flooring done, we will definitely be calling Amanda back!

My wife and I had a great experience with sales and service. Price was fair, good quality and installation was very professional.
Tom Crotty 02/15/24 — google
I’d give Amanda and her team a 10 🌟 review if I could. If you need new flooring do yourself a favor and give Footprints a chance. Craftsmanship and communication were 💯!!
Michael Durling 02/9/24 — google
Working with Amanda and her Footprings Flooring team was incredible. They did such a great job with installations and Amanda was very knowledgeable and patient with answering all my questions. I was quoted 5 working days to get everything installed and they had it done in 3! Working with Footprint Floorings was a breeze and I would recommend it to anyone!
Sarah Koralewski 01/28/24 — google
Footprint Floors did a fantastic job on our flooring not only were they experts in their field. They were also extremely easy to work with. I loved the communication. Both owners stopped by to check the work after it was finished. Overall we could not have asked for a better flooring company, as you see in the photos, the work was done to perfection. Prior to placing this floor they had to remove old tile and they did that without making a mess or anything! Highly recommend this company!

I had a great experience with Footprints Floors Raleigh! I needed bathroom floor re-tiled and they did a fantastic job.
Jonathan Reda 12/13/23 — google
We had a great experience with Footprints! Amanda was very responsive and flexible as we were selecting the floors we wanted and trying to figure out when we wanted the installation to occur that was most convenient (I am 7 months pregnant). The work was done very quickly with a high level of attention to detail. My husband was home when the workers were at our house and he said they were all very kind and responsive- and did great work. 10/10 would recommend!
Molly Gupta 12/12/23 — google
Superb people, superb craftsmanship!! It was a bit nerve-wracking to proceed with an entire first floor tear-up in order to have a new LVP floor installed, but from the moment Amanda and her crew entered my house, I knew it was going to be “OK”. Everyone was positive, professional, and invested in getting the install completed as quickly as possible while maintaining high standards with the details. The new floor was needed as a result of flooding from the second floor, so the stress level was high long before Footprints arrived. Within minutes of reviewing the project with Amanda, I could sense the “we got this!” attitude which I was SO grateful for. All of the sudden it became easier. Every step of the process was explained up front so I understood what to expect, and every day during the install Amanda or Shawna would check in to monitor progress and answer questions. Everything went exactly according to plan, and I must say, the floor is absolutely beautiful!!!! I can’t thank the Footprints team enough for providing outstanding craftsmanship and giving me the help I needed in a difficult time - they went above and beyond. I am so happy with the new floor that I bought it it’s own Roomba vacuum - they get along great!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thank you Footprints!

Right from the initial meeting with Shawna, I was blown away by her knowledge, professionalism, courtesy, and competitive pricing. Interactions with other contractors were disappointing in comparison. Communication was easy through the whole project, and her team of installers and co-owner Amanda were just as impressive. The floors are stunning, and we can rest easy knowing they were installed properly. We intend to do the rest of our house in the future, and we will definitely be going with Footprints Floors again.
Joy Lester 11/15/23 — google
The team at footprints floors was communicative, understanding, and friendly. I so appreciate them dealing with my crazy schedule. The floors look amazing. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing new flooring
Dayna Riddle 11/14/23 — google
Awesome experience! My floor looks beautiful. Shawna and her crew did a great job. Thank you Shawna.
Gloria Prout 10/22/23 — google
Footprints Floors did an amazing job helping to finish up my LVP install. They were even able to fix a couple of gaps left by my DIY attempt. They were fast & professional. They did all of the quarter round and floor transitions as well. Very knowledgeable and excellent craftsmanship.
Adam Jacobs 10/17/23 — google
The installers were professional, answered all question while installing and very experienced in installing. Ku is I
John Walser 09/15/23 — google
I had a great experience with Shawna and her team. They showed up on time every time, and worked incredibly hard to get the job done on time, despite a surprise that our floors weren't totally level. Shawna explained everything to me very clearly and the people doing the work were friendly, on time, professional, and very clean! Highly recommend!
Lisa Jaeger Elmer 08/21/23 — google
Was refreshing to have a 'local, neighborhood' business to assist me rather than a larger chain of stores -- excellent craftmanship- respectful, courteous and dependable. Highly recommended.
Robert Pinkham Jr 08/16/23 — google
I cannot recommend Footprint Floors enough. Shawna, the owner, worked with us from day 1 and was in constant communication with us throughout the entire project. She gave daily updates during the project, sharing photos and answering any question I had. She was so wonderful to work with and went above and beyond what she had to do for us. The team that refinished our floors was excellent as well and our floors look amazing afterwards. They were extremely diligent with cleaning afterwards as well and placing our furniture back carefully. We are incredibly pleased with our flooring and the results from Footprints Floors.
Luke Andrew 08/11/23 — google
Footprints provided excellent communication and workmanship throughout the entire floor replacement process. I was very impressed with all aspects of this project, especially the end result.
Megan K. 08/6/23 — google
Footprints couldn't have been a better choice for us. They were knowledgeable, professional and a good value. They installed engineered wood in our kitchen, and it looks great. I highly recommend Amanda and her team.
