"This individual came and quoted the job to level the floor in half of our basement so we could put floor down in August 2022. He said it would be done in 3 days. Subsequent occurrences: - Got COVID and started the job late. Understandable - Only poured half of the materials when self-leveling so the floor wasn't level. - He unevenly mixed sand in the concrete in certain parts, which caused holes in the concrete when we had to grind it down. - When he poured the rest, it made several parts of our floor too high, to the point where we wouldn't be able to open our back door if we installed the tile. - Came back several times to try to correct the floor but couldn't get it flat because so much grinding needed to be done. - We made the mistake of paying him in full after he came back for the 10th time, in good faith, so he could take his family on vacation... (our mistake) - Damaged the walls in the basement... - Got COVID a second time? a month or two after he had COVID last time... - Kept saying he would show up to fix the floor then wouldn't show up for weeks at a time. - After taking 2-3 months to finally stop showing up, the floor was NOT level, he still hadn't finished the job... and wasn't communicating with us about when he was going to come back. We had to then grind the $500 in materials we purchased into dust and remove it in trash bags, taking up several weeks of trash collection to fully dispose of the excess concrete that was poured. - My husband ended up finishing the job himself between December 2022 and February 2023.... and emailed M&R to let him know. He emailed us yesterday, July 27, 2023, (11 months after he quoted the job and 8 months after he stopped showing up) to say he wanted to come over and finish the job.... with the email title "stupid."... said he wants to "square this up for you and my own sanity" with a "Kind Regards" at the end."

FAQs for buffing and polishing projects in Cambridge, MA

Most homeowners can expect to pay between $1.00 and $2.50 per square foot to hire a professional to buff and polish hardwood floors. Adding additional coats of polish will cost an extra $0.50 to $1.75 per square foot. Keep in mind that buffing and polishing expenses are more cost-effective than refinishing hardwood floors, ranging from $1.50 to $7 per square foot.

Consider these recommendations for upgrading your flooring: Buffing is recommended for flooring with minor scratches and scuffs that can be filled, creating a new-looking shine. 

Refinishing your floors includes removing the top layer of wood floors, exposing new wood to stain, finish, or wax. This method is best when you have deeper scratches that cannot simply be filled. 

Replacing your flooring is best when it's been sanded and refinished numerous times, when unpleasant odors are coming from the floor, or when it has excessive wear and tear.

You should hire a flooring professional polish hardwood floors once per year. This annual schedule will help keep any surface scratches from getting more profound and restore a shine to your floor. However, if you have a high-trafficked home with excess dirt and debris, you might consider twice-yearly polishing to help it stay fresh. In between professional cleanings, stay on top of weekly floor cleanings and scratch-resolving to maintain the floor’s integrity.

You can buff your floors yourself if you have plenty of time, patience, and know-how. This intermediate-level DIY project requires either buying or renting a floor buffer and purchasing a buffing solution. This process can be time-consuming and, if not done correctly, can leave burn-like marks on your floor. 

To ensure this job is done correctly without damaging your floors, consider hiring a professional floor buffer and polisher instead. You might save money on labor costs by DIYing this project, but you could spend more on repairs if not done correctly.

Both buffing and polishing increase the longevity of your floors by removing scratches and buildup, but they are different processes. Polishing removes the top layer of your floor, removing surface-level scuffs and scratches. Buffing your floor involves filling the scratches and scuffs with a buffing solution. No matter which method you choose, you can rest assured that both techniques will leave your floor looking shiny and new.
