Refresh a worn finish
If the layout and wood still suit your home, ask whether sanding and refinishing can renew the surface. Tell us about previous sanding, the floor type and the areas that see the most traffic.

Hardwood refinishing starts with the floor you have
Explore a different color
Bring photos of the look you like. Wood species, existing stains and lighting affect the result, so discuss a sample on your floor before committing to a color.
Coordinate rooms and stairs
Include adjoining rooms, stair treads and landings in the conversation. We’ll identify the surfaces and transitions that belong in the estimate so the project has a clear scope.
From the first conversation to a written scope
- Tell us what you want to change. Send your city, the rooms involved and a few photos. Include close-ups and a wider view that shows doorways and transitions.
- Review the floor and finish options. A site review checks suitability, existing condition and the project area. Discuss stain, sheen, furniture, access and how you will use the home during the work.
- Review the estimate before scheduling. Confirm included rooms, preparation, finish system, exclusions and the proposed schedule. Start dates are confirmed with the team after the scope is agreed.

What affects a hardwood refinishing estimate?
Room sizes are one part of the scope. The existing finish, floor condition, closets, stairs, furniture handling, access and the selected finish system also need to be discussed. A whole open room and several small rooms can involve different preparation and edge work.
Ask for a written breakdown of the work, material or finish allowances, exclusions and payment terms. We review your project before giving a price; photos help start the conversation but do not replace a site assessment.
Plan your refinishing project
Can my engineered hardwood be refinished?
It depends on the product’s remaining wear layer, previous sanding and condition. If you know the manufacturer or product name, share it with us. We need to review the floor before recommending sanding; replacement may be the appropriate option.
Will sanding remove every stain or scratch?
No result can be promised from a photo alone. Marks can be limited to the finish or extend into the wood. Show us the areas that concern you so the assessment and written scope reflect those conditions.
How long will I be out of the rooms?
The project area, preparation and finish system determine the schedule. Ask separately about walking on the floor, moving furniture back and replacing rugs. Follow the selected finish manufacturer’s drying and curing instructions; these are not all the same milestone.
What about sanding dust, furniture and pets?
Discuss the equipment and containment plan, which rooms need to be cleared, and how the work area will be separated from the rest of the home. Confirm who moves furniture and how children and pets will be kept out of the work area before the start date.
Can I choose the stain and sheen?
Tell us whether you prefer a natural look, a different stain or a change in sheen. Discuss product choices and samples in your home before the finish is selected. Do not assume that a color in a photograph will look identical on your wood.
Where do you work?
Our flooring service area includes Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Milton, Roswell and Cumming. Include your city or ZIP code when you get in touch so we can confirm coverage and arrange the next step.
