RC Hardwood was clean and neat throughout the job. We cleared the family room and office completely of furniture, wall-hangings and curtains, so there was very, very little dusting to do when the job was complete. In fact, the our floors are now about 12 shades lighter in color, so the rooms feel very clean. When we first walked into the house after being away for a week, the house looked and smelled brand-new. We highly recommend this supplier if you are doing anythign with wood flooring. The guys were knowledgable, explained every step of the way what they were going to do, completed the job within three weeks of us hiring them, ontime and exactly on budget. We will hire them again!

My thought was to try someone out first and then decide whether I would refinish other rooms in my house. Michael was very articulate and patient on the phone, willing to answer all my questions. He then quoted a very fair price that was less than most others for the one room -- and he said he could be available as soon as I needed him, which was 2 days later.
Michael and one of his crew sanded, filled holes from the carpet staples and put down 3 coats of oil based polyurethane over the course of 3 days: first day, initial sanding and one coat of poly sealant; 2nd day, more sanding and filling in holes plus 2nd coat of poly; 3rd day (a Saturday), final sanding and 3rd coat of poly -- with instructions not to enter the room for 2 days. He warned me that the smell is noticeable but with the bedroom door closed, there was no problem staying in the house. The floor looks fabulous.

The hardwood floors upstairs were in rough shape and we asked that he squeeze us into his schedule the week prior to moving into the home. His calendar was booked up but he told us he would work to fit us in. He called us twice the week prior to our closing to finalize dates and times, but we ended up closing late and barely had enough time to clean the house before moving, let alone finish the floors. The hardwoods upstairs had been covered by linoleum and tarred, and in January we asked Ron to come take a look at them to see if there was any way they could be salvaged. He did some research and found a sander that had diamond blades on it that he thought might remove the tar. He purchased the blade for our floors and came by later in the month to test it out. Unfortunately the new blade was not able to remove the tar. Ron ended up returning the blade because he had bought it specifically for our job and did not have much use for it.We called Ron back last August after finding a contractor who used a sandblaster to remove the tar from the wood floors. Ron returned to our house and took 4 days to finish the 3 bedrooms and hallway. The antique wide pine floors turned out absolutely beautiful. Working with Ron was a pleasure. He was polite, prompt, easy to contact and trustworthy. He went out of his way to try and help us. We have indoor cats and he made a special effort to keep them indoors while he entered and exited the house. What I especially appreciated was that he made a solid effort to be clean and quiet- I work nights in the ER and was sleeping on some of the days he came to work. We still have the downstairs and half of the upstairs floors to refinish and repair and will definitely be calling Ron again.

Our experience with RC Hardwood Floors was excellent. We had them strip, sand, repair and refinish our family room oak-plank floors and our office oak-planked floors. RC took the time to sand the floors down to a very flat surface; the oak-planks were 'curled' up on the sides because not...

"Lou Toppia was just the expert I needed. Not only was I expecting him to refinish my hardwood floors, I was asking him to come in and work miracles to repair the damage done by another contractor who had a damaged machine created wavy distortions to my floors. Lou made them look beautiful again! He was very honest about what he could and could not make perfect and his work always exceeded my expectations. Lou was careful to keep his work area very clean, cleaned up after himself daily and protected my other living areas by sheeting off the rooms he was refinishing. The final finish is so beautiful, with four coats of satin urethane, I think they look better than the factory finish. I would highly recommend Lou to anyone in need of hardwood flooring installation or refinishing."

FAQs for floor sanding projects in Chestnut Hill, MA
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 $3.50per square foot.
