Refinish Your Old Wood Floors

With Top Industry Professionals in Tampa


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 Tampa 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

Footprints Floors installed new floors in my residence and did a phenomenal job during all phases of the project. The flooring job is in the top two best installs I’ve ever seen in a residence and I have a high level of exposure to flooring installs as a 10- year full-time real estate agent. The communication was excellent throughout the entire process and everyone showed up on time every day. I would highly recommend you call Owner Gene Hawk for a flooring estimate.

I’m am so very happy with the services provided by Footprints. The floors are beautiful and the service was impeccable !
Kelly Wade 04/16/25 — google
I confidently recommend Footprints Floors of Tampa! One conversation with Gene and we knew he was who we wanted to work with. Gene’s level of professionalism, knowledge, clear and prompt communication is a rare and truly appreciated thing. My husband and I requested 6x26 tile planks be matched and extended from the main living area into 4 bedrooms and closets to replace existing carpet. Gene found the matching tile quickly and at an excellent price. He understood exactly what we hoped for, and his crew seamlessly laced the tiles in at the doorways. The finished project is beautiful , and we couldn’t be more pleased! We had one issue (on our end) crop up. Water seepage was found in my son’s room. We had know their had been an issue but didn’t realize it was on going. Gene actually went above and beyond to help us get the issue fully resolved before tiling the area. Thank you so much to Gene, Diego and the rest of the crew!

I recently had Foorprints Floors install hybrid resilient floors in three of my bathrooms and I couldn't be happier with the results. The crew was professional, efficient, and did an excellent job with the installation. The floors look beautiful. I would highly recommend Foorprints Floors to anyone looking for high-quality flooring installation. Thank you, Gene job well done!

Gene and his guys killed it, they were able to get the floor of this old house leveled and flooring laid within 2 days. Very happy with the results and we’re loving our new floor. His guys were all friendly and very good at what they do , I would definitely recommend.
Shawn Way 01/13/25 — google
Reached out to Gene at Footprints, and he came out and saw that I had too small a job for his normal work. So he referred me to one of his contractors who did an excellent job. I truly appreciate a business that looks out for you. Thanks!
Micheal Brandon 01/8/25 — google
These guys are prompt and on their game. Beautiful job they did. Quick and clean.
Greg Seale 12/30/24 — google
HIGHLY recommend Footprints Floors—Gene and his team went above and beyond for our large flooring project and the results are stunning. My husband and I purchased a home and wanted to remove nearly 2,200+ sqft of old carpet, engineered hardwood, and tile flooring and replace it with new LVP prior to us moving in. We coordinated everything while we still lived in California and Gene and his team were so generous to receive our materials, store them in the home, and complete the project within the timeframe we needed. We received a fair invoice, daily pictures of the project, and daily updates to the progress which was so comforting. I was so impressed with the results—even difficult spots like our bullnose corners, oddly angled kitchen, and small closets received great care. It was such a wonderful feeling to move in to the home knowing such a large project was already complete and it made our move and planned renovations significantly easier. It truly felt like a good, family friend completed this project with the utmost honesty and skill and we are extremely grateful. You won’t regret using Gene & his team for your next flooring project! (I’ll update pictures once we don’t have moving boxes everywhere—the results are way more stunning than my current pictures show!)
Lauren Turner 12/28/24 — google
Gene was amazing to deal with and his crew did an amazing job redoing our 4 bedrooms. I hate carpet so Gene suggested we change out to our current vinyl floor. He was able to find me my matching flooring and they were able to finish everything in one day! Thanks Gene!

Gene and his team were a pleasure to work with on our floor repair and backsplash projects. Diego and Bruno are courteous professionals. We truly appreciate their thoughtful craftsmanship and willingness to accommodate our tight schedule before the holidays. We’re so pleased with the end result.

Gene Hawk at Footprints Floors is by far the easiest, and most skilled flooring installer I’ve worked with. As a flooring manufacturer and distributor i’ve had the pleasure of working with Gene on a number of jobs, with consistent positive feedback from all of his customers. Not only does he do quality work that he stands by, it comes at a cost-effective rate as well. I would recommend Gene to any of my friends or family, and anyone in need of flooring in the Tampa area. You won’t regret it!
Raymond Fowler 11/13/24 — google
Gene, Vic and his crew did an excellent job on our floors. We had original 100-year-old hardwood floors that unfortunately could no longer be restored. The crew removed them, installed a new subfloor, and laid new LVP flooring throughout our whole house. Great attention to detail, fast work, and great communication! Would highly recommend.
Audra Regan 11/13/24 — google

Luis Cosme 10/20/24 — google
Gene was very pleasant to work with from the first time I called to set up an estimate to the install of my floor! His crew was very professional and hard working! I could not be happier with the job they performed! Don’t hesitate to reach out to them with any flirting needs!
