434 JP Flooring: Our 30 plus year old kitchen floor needed to be sanded, refinished and sealed. The floor now looks fantastic! We could see that much care was taken in the detail, especially under the refrigerator where the ice was released. The price was reasonable. We were totally satisfied...
JP Hardwood FlooringI used Vasile Flooring twice in 2017. I had purchased a house with a living room and hallway that had pre-finished hardwood flooring that was about 20 years old. That flooring was over 20 years old and had a medium oak color that my wife didn't like. There was a carpeted family room that...
Vasile Flooring & Construction CoFloors don't look great a couple of years later and there's still sawdust throughout the entire house from when his crew sanded the floors. Don't believe dustless - were caught in the act. If I had to do it over again I would not have used them.
Great Hardwood Flooring Services IncAssured Restoration refinished our floors years ago, but couldn't remember their name....so asked a neighbor who they would recommend (as their floors were just refinished) , and sure enough.....Assured Restoration!! They came in and quoted our current floor, plus a floor we wanted...
It went very well. We were initially quoted for a sanding, restaining, and refinishing our wood floor. When the owner and his associate came to do the work, I was advised that the floor was really in good shape and did not need a sanding. It just needed a cleaning and buffing. As a...
Nex FlooringThe floor work was great. I was out of town during the sanding. The crew let themselves in, did the work, cleaned up - no issues. However, they had to disconnect some breakers to get 220V for their large sanding equipment. They happened to pull the wrong breaker and disconnected my...
We called Dan; when we finally made the decision to sand and refinish our floors. D came with an free estimate and started the work on time and as agreed a week later. The maple floors, and oak stairs, are sanded and stained exactly to specifications. They even replaced a part of the floor...

"Home Repair Fraud. Theft by deception. We got a new floor and the installer said his brother was the field estimator and was authorized to remove the "Kitchen Cabinets"? We never wanted cabinets from a flooring company, But they targeted the owner because she is 91 years old and took them. Months later we got them back from the ex-con and hoodlum they sent to rob the owner totally destroyed and had to pay another $1300 to get them back. We feared for our safety because they wanted to know if the house was for sale and what types of cars we were driving. They prey upon the elderly. Do not use this company unless you have a criminal attorney on retainer. Stay away from DeSitter at all costs."

Our carpet store has served Chicago, Evanston and the surrounding suburbs for more than 40 years. We offer a full mobile service to your home. We focus in new carpet and pad sales and installation, we do not offer carpet repair or restretching service. Because we are the distributor and the installer, we are able to provide high quality flooring at the best prices.
"I am so pleased with the help that we received from American Carpet Distributors! We had a burst pipe in our basement that got our carpet and padding wet. We had to throw out the padding but managed to save the carpet. Larry responded so quickly and was so easy to work with. He stopped by the house the same day I called him and took measurements to replace the carpet padding. A couple days later he sent out a very friendly and hardworking crew to replace the padding and lay our old carpet on top. It looks and feels brand new. I am so pleased that he was so promp to help. I feel like he was so fair in his pricing and that he wasn't pushy to sell me things I didn't need. The other carpet companies I called would only do the job if I bought new carpet (which I didn't need) or had a high minimum job payment. Larry saw that we really needed our basement back to working order and quickly helped us get that back. I am very satisfied and grateful!"

The cost to refinish hardwood floors is $1,900 on average, ranging from $600 to $4,500, depending on the area size, the floor’s condition, the type of wood, the type of coating, and the refinishing method. Traditional refinishing includes sanding the floors, which can be very dusty and costs about $3 to $8 per square foot. Dustless refinishing uses a vacuum to collect dust during the sanding process, reducing the amount of dust produced, and costs about $5 to $8 per square foot.
You should aim to hire a professional floor cleaner once or twice per year to remove any set-in stains, resolve scratches, and make your floors look shiny and new again. If you have a bustling household with many children, pets, or severe allergies, having your floors cleaned four times per year is worth the investment to maintain the integrity of your flooring. Don’t forget to prioritize cleaning your floors yourself in between professional cleanings, too.
The cost to install hardwood flooring is about $4,800 on average, ranging from about $1,000 to $12,000. Nationally, the average cost to install hardwood floors ranges from $6 to $12 per square foot for labor and materials. High-end woods and large spaces may cost $13 to $25 per square foot.
Additional cost factors include:
Square footage of the area
Type of wood
Preparation requirements
Type of finish
Location
Floor style and pattern
Plank thickness
Wood grade, color, and grain
It’s time to refinish your hardwood floors when they show signs of age that diminish their overall appearance and function. A few surefire signals that you should consider refinishing your hardwood floors include:
Gouges, scrapes, deep scratches, and dents over a significant area
Discoloration from stains or sun exposure
Water damage causing rotting, warping, or bowing
Weak, spongy, or soft spots in the floor indicating damaged subflooring
Dull and worn appearance across most of the floor
The cost for professional floor cleaning is $250 on average. This cost can range from $100 to $1,500, depending on the type of flooring and its square footage.
For example, natural stone flooring requires specialized techniques and care, so you'll spend closer to the higher end of the cost range. The cost of cleaning tile and grout is more cost-effective, where you'll pay an average of $0.50 to $3.50 per square foot.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
