A good contractor helps you understand the process.

Advice about choosing a flooring contractor still holds up years later: ask questions, look at past work, and get a clear understanding of what will happen in your home.

01

Review workmanship and experience

Ask for examples of refinishing projects similar to yours. Find out who will perform the sanding, staining, and finishing, and what experience they have with the wood in your home.

02

Compare details, not just price

Clarify what the estimate includes, how furniture and adjacent surfaces will be protected, what dust control is planned, and how long the area may be unusable.

03

Know the finish you are getting

Discuss color samples, expected sheen, maintenance, and whether blemishes or old board repairs may remain visible after refinishing.
