We offer a variety of high-quality flooring options, including Solid Hardwood, Engineered Hardwood, and Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP).

Our flooring specialists will guide you through the decision-making process by considering factors such as the level of your home (above or below grade), the age of your home, and the type of subfloor (concrete or wood). We can also match the species and grade of new flooring to your existing floors, ensuring a seamless and cohesive look throughout your home.

While it's impossible to eliminate all dust, our Dust Containment System (DCS) is designed to minimize dust during installation. While some cleaning may still be necessary, our DCS ensures that the dust left behind is kept to an absolute minimum, maintaining a cleaner environment in your home.

The frequency of sanding depends on the amount of wear and tear your floor experiences. For regular maintenance, we recommend a buffing and coating service, which can restore the appearance of your floor at a fraction of the cost of a full refinishing. Full refinishing is typically needed when the floor shows significant damage or wear.

Most hardwood floor refinishing projects in Burnsville take one to three days for sanding and finish coats, followed by a cure period before furniture can return. Light foot traffic is typically possible within 24 hours of the final coat, but furniture and rugs should wait 48 to 72 hours or longer depending on the finish used.

A full sand-and-refinish is needed when floors have deep scratches, stains, or uneven wear that goes through the existing finish into the wood. A recoat works when the finish is dulling but the surface is still smooth and structurally sound. The right call depends on the current condition of your floors and how much wood remains for sanding.

Refinishing cost is based on the square footage being refinished, the condition of the floors, and the type of finish selected. Floors that need extensive prep work, repairs, or multiple coats will cost more than floors in good condition requiring a straightforward refinish. Getting an in-person assessment is the most accurate way to price a project in Burnsville.

Solid hardwood floors can typically be refinished multiple times as long as enough wood thickness remains above the tongue. Many engineered hardwood floors can also be refinished once or twice depending on the thickness of the top wear layer. A flooring professional can measure and confirm whether your specific floors are good candidates before any work begins.

Common signs include visible scratches that don't buff out, dull or gray-looking boards that no longer respond to cleaning, worn spots where the finish has completely disappeared, or boards that look dry and unprotected. If water no longer beads on the surface, the finish is likely compromised and refinishing should be considered.

Common finish options include oil-based polyurethane, water-based polyurethane, and hard-wax oil finishes, each with different sheen levels, dry times, and durability profiles. Oil-based finishes add a warm amber tone and are very durable, while water-based finishes dry faster and stay clearer. The best choice depends on your lifestyle, the wood species, and your preferred look.

Refinishing is almost always more cost-effective than replacement when the existing hardwood is structurally sound and has sufficient wood thickness remaining. It restores the appearance and protection of the floor without the material and labor costs of tearing out and installing new flooring. For most Burnsville homeowners with older solid hardwood, refinishing is the smarter investment.

Solid hardwood floors can typically be refinished five to ten times over their lifetime, depending on the wood thickness and how much material is removed with each sanding. Engineered hardwood has a thinner wear layer and may only support one or two refinishes. A professional can measure the remaining wood thickness to determine how many refinishes are still possible.
