We often get calls from customers who want wood floors but aren’t sure what flooring they have because their rooms have been carpeted for so long. They think they have to buy and install new flooring. Well I have good news for you! You probably have original wood floors underneath that are just waiting to be restored. If your home was built prior to 1970 there is a better than 90% chance you still have original wood floors that were built with the house. And even if built after 1970 you have a better than 75% chance of finding real wood under there.
Well now here comes the BEST news! You can restore and refinish your existing wood floors at MUCH LESS COST than installing new floors. And this is true even if your floors are over 100 years old or more.
At Keystone Floor Works we have our own in house crew of expert craftsmen to restore, repair, and refinish even neglected old floors back to their original beauty and durability. First we come out to your home to measure, inspect, and evaluate the condition of your floor. Then write an EXACT price proposal that also lists many options that may be available to you. Once you’ve decided to proceed, you pick a start date to begin the work. With most jobs you do not need to move out of your home.
Before work begins we can help you with logistics, staging, furniture moving, and old carpet or vinyl removal. Then when work begins we hang plastic thoroughly to enhance our dust control system.
Your floors are required, sanded smooth, clean and flat, and then finished with 4 full coats of PROFESSIONAL quality finish. Not the cheap coatings that some crews buy at the big box stores! You will be offered many options such as natural color versus an almost unlimited array of stain colors. Do you want new mouldings too? Will you need furniture replaced when done? All of your options are identified and priced BEFORE you schedule your work so you can be informed.
We use low odor and quick drying finishes so the disruption to your home is minimized. And with 4 coats of professional finish you are left durable and easy care for even the most active families for many years to come.
