Regular Maintenance Tips For Your Hardwood Floors
Regular cleaning after installation or refinishing
Sweep or vacuum regularly to prevent grit scratching the finish. Plan full refinishing every 7–10 years to keep tone and protection consistent.
Use gentle cleaners only
Avoid harsh chemicals and oil soaps. Use dedicated hardwood cleaners so the protective coat stays clear, bonds well, and resists clouding.
Prevent wear and tear in high-traffic areas
Use rugs at entries and felt pads under furniture to reduce scratches and dents, especially in busy rooms and along common pathways.
Control humidity levels
Maintain indoor humidity around 30–50% year-round to minimize gaps, cupping, or cracking in both solid wood and engineered floors.

frequently Asked Questions
How long does hardwood floor refinishing take?
Most refinishing takes 2–4 days, depending on square footage, layout, repairs, and dry times. Larger areas or complex stains can extend to 4–5 days. Our hardwood floor contractors provide a clear schedule before work begins and keep you updated at each step.
How does your wood floor company structure pricing for hardwood flooring projects?
Pricing depends on scope and selections:
- Size — larger areas lower cost per sq ft.
- Wood — harder species affect labor.
- Finish — commercial or water-based may cost more.
- Level/layout — stairs and upper floors add time.
At our Bartlett hardwood floor company, refinishing starts at $3/sq ft with a free estimate.
What is dustless hardwood floor refinishing and why does it matter?
Dust-controlled sanding captures most dust at the source, keeping your home cleaner and the air healthier. It also helps achieve a smoother finish because airborne particles are reduced during coating—especially helpful in lived-in spaces like family rooms, hallways, and bedrooms.
Which finish is best for Bartlett’s weather?
For Chicagoland swings, we recommend low-VOC water-based or commercial-grade systems that handle humidity and temperature changes well. Our hardwood flooring experts often use Bona and Loba and will match sheen and durability to your rooms, lighting, and daily traffic.
Can you restore original floors in historic homes?
Yes. Our wood floor specialists assess thickness, species, and condition to determine what’s salvageable. With careful repairs, sanding, and color blending, we can preserve character while renewing durability—whether it’s early-1900s strip oak, vintage parquet, or mixed-width planks in older Bartlett homes.
What’s the hardwood installation timeframe in Bartlett?
For most 1–2-room jobs, our hardwood flooring contractors complete install in 1–3 days, plus 24–72 hrs of acclimation if needed. Floors are walkable after install; return furniture in 24–48 hrs and rugs in ~7 days. On-site finishing adds cure time (water-based: 24–72 hrs). Stairs, patterns, or subfloor/moisture repairs can extend the schedule.
