Hardwood Floor Refinishing FAQ

How much does floor refinishing cost in Sacramento?+

Hardwood floor refinishing in Sacramento costs $3–$5 per square foot for standard refinishing and $4–$7/sqft for dustless. A 1,000 sqft project typically costs $3,000–$5,000. This is 50–70% less than full replacement.

How long does refinishing take and when can I walk on the floors?+

Sanding and finishing takes 2–4 days for most homes. After the final coat, you can walk in socks after 24 hours, place furniture after 48–72 hours, and place area rugs after 2 weeks. Full cure takes 30 days.

How often should hardwood floors be refinished?+

Most hardwood floors need refinishing every 7–10 years with normal wear. High-traffic homes with pets may need it every 5–7 years. A simple 'screen and recoat' (no full sanding) every 3–5 years extends time between full refinishes.
