Floor Restoration
Hardwood Floor Restoration in DFW
Floor restoration goes beyond standard refinishing — it is a comprehensive process for severely neglected, antique, or heavily damaged floors that require deep cleaning, structural repair, and full refinishing to bring them back to life.
What Floor Restoration Includes
Deep Cleaning
Decades of wax, polish, and grime buildup are stripped away before any sanding begins, revealing the true condition of the wood.
Structural Assessment
We inspect every board for rot, insect damage, severe cupping, and structural weakness — identifying what can be saved and what must be replaced.
Board Replacement
Damaged, rotted, or missing boards are replaced with matching material sourced to match the original species and width as closely as possible.
Full Sanding
The entire floor is sanded down to bare wood, removing all existing finish, stains, and surface damage.
Staining and Finishing
We apply your chosen stain and multiple protective finish coats, restoring the floor to a beautiful, durable condition.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between restoration and refinishing?
Refinishing typically refers to sanding and recoating a floor in reasonable condition. Restoration is a more comprehensive process for floors that are severely neglected, structurally compromised, or require significant repair before refinishing can begin.
Can antique or historic floors be restored?
Yes. We have experience restoring antique and historic hardwood floors, including wide-plank floors, heart pine, and other species that are no longer commonly available.
How long does floor restoration take?
Restoration projects vary widely depending on the condition of the floor. Most projects take three to seven days, including drying time between coats.
Is restoration always worth it compared to replacement?
For antique, wide-plank, or high-quality hardwood floors, restoration is almost always worth it — both for the aesthetic result and the cost savings compared to replacement. We provide an honest assessment during the estimate.
Do you restore floors in historic homes?
Yes. We work with homeowners in historic neighborhoods throughout DFW and understand the care required to preserve original flooring materials.
