Regular Maintenance Tips For Your Hardwood Floors
Regular cleaning after installation or refinishing
Sweep or vacuum often to limit grit and scratches; plan a refinish every 7–10 years.
Use gentle cleaners only
Choose products made for hardwood; avoid harsh chemicals that dull finishes or leave residue that attracts dirt.
Prevent wear and tear in high-traffic areas
Use rugs and felt pads under furniture to reduce scratches and pressure on finishes.
Control humidity levels
Keep indoor humidity between 30–50% to minimize seasonal gaps, cupping, and cracks in solid or engineered floors.

frequently Asked Questions
How long does hardwood floor refinishing take?
Most refinishing projects take 2–4 days, depending on square footage, repairs, and the finish system you select. Larger homes or complex layouts can run 4–5 days or more. Our hardwood flooring contractors will give you a clear, written timeline before we start and keep you updated throughout.
How do you structure pricing for hardwood flooring projects?
Refinishing typically starts around $3 per sq ft. Final pricing reflects scope and site conditions, not a flat rate. Expect estimates to adjust based on:
- Project size — larger areas reduce cost per sq ft.
- Wood type — some species are harder to sand or stain.
- Finish choice — some water-based/commercial-grade systems cost more.
- Floor level & layout — stairs, upper floors, or tight rooms increase labor.
Our hardwood flooring company offers free estimates to make it easier for you.
What is dustless hardwood floor refinishing and why does it matter?
Dustless sanding captures dust at the source, keeping your home cleaner and the air easier to breathe. It also helps the finish lay smoother by reducing debris on the surface. You still should expect minor trace dust, but cleanup and disruption are much lower.
Which finish is best for Batavia’s weather?
For Batavia’s seasonal swings, we often recommend quality water-based or commercial-grade finishes. They cure fast, resist yellowing, and handle humidity changes well. Our wood flooring company will help you choose the sheen and system based on traffic, pets, and maintenance goals, balancing durability with the look you want.
Can you restore original floors in historic homes?
Yes. Our wood flooring company restores original hardwood in historic homes whenever the boards are structurally sound. Our process blends repairs, careful sanding, and compatible stains to protect character while renewing performance. If sections are beyond saving, we source matching material to integrate the repair cleanly.
What’s the hardwood installation timeframe in Batavia?
Most 1–2-room projects run 1–3 days, plus 24–72 hrs of acclimation when needed. Floors are walkable after install; return furniture in 24–48 hrs, rugs in ~7 days. On-site finishing adds cure time (water-based: 24–72 hrs). Stairs, patterns, or subfloor fixes can extend timelines—our Batavia hardwood flooring contractors factor that in.
