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 Waukesha / New Berlin 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

Very professional, very affordable. I had some wrecked flooring needing to be replaced at home, they did a great job with the tear down and with the install.
Jake Budzinsky 04/29/25 — google
Footprints Floors was a phenomenal experience. Rebecca was so easy to work with and the quality her team’s output was top notch. At the start of the process, we had somewhat of a complex project with new floor installs and refinishing across three levels. Rebecca worked to build a competitive quote that had the right level of detail we could understand and trust. She worked with us on all of the design and material aspects and made sure we were getting exactly what we wanted based on our goals and budget for flooring. Her teams were great during the install, they were very respectful, efficient and brought anything to my attention in advance (even the small things). I strongly recommend Footprints floors for both refinish and new flooring install!

The crew did a great job. We are satisfied with the finished product. Rebecca was very attentive from start to finish. I'm considering some bath updates; I will call Rebecca at Footprints for an estimate.

Rebecca and team were great! Very accommodating to my schedule and needs. Rebecca especially was terrific to work with and would come with my high recommendation!!

Becca and her team did an awesome job on my remodel. We took out the carpet and extended the wood floors into the living room and hallway. The wood looks great, and you can’t even tell it was only in one room! I was nervous about picking a color and they made that easy as well. I wouldn’t go anywhere else when looking for a flooring company!
Lexi Ostrand 02/28/25 — google
My aunt and uncle recently had their hardwood floors refinished, and they couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! Rebecca and her team did an absolutely amazing job. From start to finish, the process was smooth and efficient. They were professional, detail-oriented, and took great care in ensuring everything was done to perfection. The best part, however, is the stain color. It turned out exactly how they had envisioned—rich, warm, and just the right tone. It completely transformed the look of their home, giving the floors a fresh, updated appearance while still maintaining their timeless charm. They are so happy with the final outcome and would highly recommend this service to anyone looking to breathe new life into their hardwood floors. They truly exceeded my expectations!

Footprints Floors added a backsplash to our kitchen. It turned out amazing! The process was easy because they helped us through the steps. It was hard to decide what exact style would look nice so they gave us helpful suggestions. We are so happy with the outcome. The workmanship was excellent and no dust was left behind at the end. My family will definitely hire Footprint Floors again to do our next project.

Being new to the area, I was flying blind when looking for a flooring contractor. From our first meeting to get measurements until clean up after the install, I was very happy. I've always said, long after the price is forgotten, the quality will be remembered. Trust me, with Footprints Floors, you'll get a professional job done at a fair price!

We recently had a water leak below our kitchen sink which damaged our flooring. We went to Angie's list and picked 3 contractors for quotes. I picked Footprints Floors Waukesha. Rebecca Harvey worked up a quote for removal of old flooring approx 900 square feet and installation of new flooring. Footprints concept let's owner pick a product and Rebecca worked up a material list and sent to our vendor. She said they could start 1/27/25, would be at our home at 8:00am. Rebecca and her crew arrived at 8:00, she walked the foreman thru the details and said she would return during the day checking on progress and any needs the crew might have. The crew as excellent and very professional and a pleasure to work with. The removal was done by mid day and installation was begun. By 5:00pm, install was 80% complete. Rebecca and crew returned Tuesday at 8:00 by by mid morning install of floor complete. Began reinstalling baseboards, quarter round and transition pieces. The craftsmanship of the crew was excellent. They finished all caulking and cleanup by noon. I would give Rebecca and here crew a 5 star rating. Rebecca was a pleasure to work with.

Our project was new tile in several rooms. Rebecca was clearly committed to the success of this project from start to finish. She was very prompt to reply to any questions, had her team on site when she said they would be there, and had no surprises on price or timing. She was clearly very personally engaged and cared about our satisfaction. I liked that she also allowed us to manage the job and save some money by doing some of the work ourselves - some contractors did not allow this. Overall, we were very satisfied with Rebecca and the outcome of this job and would recommend her to others.

We had a large kitchen remodel we were doing and when we ripped out the cabinets we realized it was some floorboards that were missing as well as a very large hole in the floor. Footprints flooring did an excellent job of lacing in the new wood and repairing the damaged floors. I would highly recommend them. Professional, courteous and very easy to work with.

Rebecca and her team did a great job on my three bedroom floors. They came when they said they would and I am very pleased. Dan is a true craftsman and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Picture of one of the bedrooms before and after.
