Flooring Restoration

With Top Industry Professionals in San Antonio


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 San Antonio 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

Eduardo and his team were incredible throughout the experience. He was knowledgeable and professional, guiding us through the flooring process every step of the way, and his team did a fantastic job (and got it done ahead of schedule). Would recommend Footprints without a doubt.
Kyle Bandujo 11/15/24 — google
Purchased this home and it already had new floors upstairs. We bought the same floors through Lowes bc they did the original install. Lowes person came out to measure and told me the old floors needed to be torn out. When I asked questions about the product I was told he was just there to measure and we would be sent a quote. Footprints came out and gave us a quote which was great but more importantly read about the flooring product, called the manufacturer and told us it could be done without ripped out old tile bc it was in good shape. Day one was spent grinding down some high spots and doing some leveling. Day two the flooring was installed. Day three was trim work and clean up. We are thrilled with new floors. Call footprints bc you get a great price and their expertise.

I had three contractors come out, one wanted 23k, the others no-showed, then refused to offer a quote or estimate. Eduardo was the most professional contractor I've worked with in years. The tile work is nothing short of absolutley spectacular. Perfect workmanship. Jorge and Jose are craftsman, and made the tile not only look good, but look like it's all original using totally different colors and sizes. Just simply amazing. I just can't recommended them enough.

Edwardo was a great communicator, installed the floors as promised and very efficient. He even picked up some materials for me.

The floors are beautiful and the service was extraordinary
Andrew Sansom 12/23/23 — google
We had a backsplash installed in our kitchen. The finished backsplash is more beautiful than my husband or I had imagined it would be. I was very impressed with the owner. He was on time for our initial appointment. He sent us a quote that same evening and scheduled the work to be done the following week. The gentlemen who did the installation were respectful and highly skilled. They worked steadily the entire time they were in our home. The project lasted 2 days because of additional time needed for the glue to dry the first day. Before leaving, they tidied up the work space so we could minimally use the kitchen space until they returned the next morning. The boss rescheduled things the next morning so he could be at our home to supervise the workers. Once again, they cleaned the work space before leaving. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing tile installation. We had bought more tile than we needed but they did not waste tile or other materials. We were amazed at how much tile we had left over. We have been so impressed that we are requesting bids for laying flooring in parts of our home. I have every confidence that this company will do great work at a reasonable price.

Eduardo and his team are conscientious and thorough. Recommend!

These guys went way above and beyond. Have a 2,000sf home that needed tile removed throughout house. It was original tile that I tried to remove. Smacked, whacked, chiseled and couldn’t get up even one tile! These guys worked in the Texas heat (AC had to be turned off due to dust) from sunup to sundown. Cleaned up the house and laid LV flooring. The seams and “wood” pattern were perfect. It has been 2 years and the flooring is solid. I continue to recommend them for a quality install by hardworking, honest gentlemen.
Merrie Schmidt 12/14/23 — google
Eduardo and his team were great! They installed our flooring pretty quickly. However we did find that we had the wrong underlayment after walking through with Eduardo. Eduardo and his team verified with our product's store for the correct underlayment and they redid the flooring. We loved their expertise and helpfulness in understanding the correct items needed for our flooring. We have recommended them to a few of our friends.
Mary Compean 12/14/23 — google
Footprints promised we would fast and reliable construction of our flooring…. And they came through 10 fold! We were speechless of the outcome. We already hired them for our next project.

It was a true pleasure working with Eduardo of Footprints Floors; Eduardos’ professionalism, candor and calm demeanor made it simple for me to choose his company for a wood flooring installation project. Eduardo was very thorough in the explanation of the work to be done, his team was on time and did great work and were very organized, efficient and kept the area very clean during the installation process. I thought selecting and installing wood flooring was a straight to the point project, however there are so many small details from wood selection, to types of flooring to shades and even the look you are trying to achieve. Eduardos expertise took care of a lot of the questions I had. I would definitely recommend Eduardos company and will use them again in the near future.

Edwardo and his team were amazing. They did a great job. I would highly recommend them.
rafael deloera 12/14/23 — google
Eduardo and his team was very very professional. They had great communication, which I really appreciated because I didn’t receive that as I was looking for contractors to do my stairs. They were flexible with the process because we ran into some issues with the product that I had purchased. We even had a switch dates and he was happy to do so, even though it wasted a day of his time. The finished product was exactly what we wanted as well so we couldn’t be happier.
Rachel Wirtz 12/14/23 — google
They did a wonderful job on my floors re-sanding and staining them. I will recommend them to anyone who needs floors done. Very professional and courteous.
Sandra Brown 11/8/23 — google
The most important thing is that we have someone who will do a professional job in a reasonable time frame. Footprints Floors did all of this and were a pleasure to work with. We will certainly use them again and can highly recommend them to others

This is my second project with Eduardo and his team. Both times have been a positive experience and a job well done. I appreciate the attention to detail and understanding of my needs. The team is on time, professional and make every effort to please the client. I will use them again to complete my ongoing project.
Althea 09/14/23 — google
So very happy with our vinyl plank floors that were installed. My husband had started the process in our kitchen, after "You Tubing" the process . But,it was taking a long while, as we forgot we are not young things anymore! So, we had footprints come in to complete the job, and wish we'd used them sooner!! The two rooms were done expertly and quick. They absolutely amazing and we love them. We had purchased the flooring at Costco and were fortunate to catch it on sale too! The floor needed leveling and we wouldn't have known had we forged forward without getting the professionals in!. Edwardo was very responsive to communication and having dealt with previous contractors on other home projects this is a premium quality. We got several quotes, but we just really liked the Edwardo, and Herman who actually did the work was excellent! And quick!! They helped us move some furniture so that was very kind, and cleaned up with great precision. We will be using again for our other rooms!
Michelle Anderson 08/29/23 — google
Eduardo was quick to provide a quote and very competitive. The quality of the workmanship was excellent, and they made every effort to minimize the mess from removing the old flooring. No hesitation in recommending Footprints for your flooring needs

I am so glad I picked Footprint Floors to do my stairs and loft remodel. Eduardo was timely, very professional and his team member always arrived on time and did the project in 2 days. It came out looking wonderful. I would highly recommend using this local small business for your project needs! Very pleasant, fast, good quality! Thank you Eduardo. Adrian

I was very impressed from start to finish with Eduardo and his team. Very professional and high quality work. The guys were very nice and kind and left the work area clean. The new shower install is beautiful and I’m already excited to have them come back and install floors. Great work and I will use again. I highly recommend. Thanks!
