Flooring Restoration

With Top Industry Professionals in Ocala / The Villages


Even if you take great care of your hardwood floors, cleaning and polishing them regularly, years of wear and tear take their toll. Or, perhaps you’ve moved recently into an older home with hardwood floors that need more than just dusting and polishing. Either way - it’s time to refinish or restore your floors.

Flooring restoration is a lengthy and laborious process involving sanding, patching, staining and top coating. Even if you’re an accomplished DIY-er, this is not your average weekend project and is best left to the professionals. Ways to mess up your floors lurk at every step of the project.

Common Mistakes Include Uneven Sanding


A drum sander, the most common tool used for this part of refinishing floors, can be rented from most hardware stores. This large piece of equipment weighs a ton and creates a lot of noise and dust. For someone with no experience, wrangling this machine is extremely difficult and can result in scraping away too many layers of wood in spots, leaving sander-shaped impressions across your hardwood floor. They also don’t do a great job in corners and other hard to reach areas. Odd angles and uneven sanding can lead to gouges in your floor. Footprints Floors contractors are highly skilled and have more powerful, higher-quality equipment to sand floors beautifully and evenly.

Common Mistakes Include Dust


That never-ending nemesis, dust. Sanding floors creates a lot of dust particles that have to be meticulously cleaned before proceeding to next steps. If you fail to remove all those little dust specks before staining and finishing your floors, those teeny tiny bits of wood or lacquer will get trapped under the finish, ruining the smooth look you’re after. Footprints Floors contractors have the eye for detail and dedication you need to make sure your floors are dust free before anything else is applied.

Common Mistakes Include Bad Application of Stain and/or Finish


Footprints Floors has access to a wider range of products for stains and finishes than you’ll find at your local hardware store. Not only more color and style options, but higher quality formulas that last longer, dry faster and frankly look better. In addition to using high quality products on your floors, Footprints Floors contractors are trained in the best techniques for applying stains and finishes. A common problem seen in DIY flooring restoration is peeling finish. Other rookie mistakes include applying too many layers of finish without letting it dry in between applications. Instead of the sleek, shiny floors of your dreams, poorly finished floors will quickly look dull, dirty and potentially damaged.

Benefits Of Restoring Hardwood Floors


Over time, hardwood floors can tarnish and show their age. Replacing hardwood floors can be expensive, and your antique floors can become worth a lot if you take care of them. In that case, refinishing may be a better alternative to replacing your hardwood altogether.

Cost-Effective

Even if you hire professionals like Footprints Floors, refinishing hardwood floors typically ends up costing quite a bit less than installing new hardwood.

Increased Home Value

Solid wood floors are greatly appealing to potential buyers, and taking care of your floors with antique floor refinishing in Ocala / The Villages is a great way to preserve and add value to your home.

Increased Safety

Damaged floors aren't just an eyesore, they can also bring some big safety concerns. Splinters in the feet, for example, aren't comfortable and could get infected. Antique floors can also be uneven, which may lead to tripping or falls.

Ward Off Pests

Did you know the craters, small holes and crevices that can appear in hardwood floors are a bug's best friend? Termites, ants and decay can wreak havoc on your floors, but regularly refinishing them can seal off bugs and other issues.

I would highly recommend print flooring! Tom is absolutely amazing. He is a true professional! We updated the flooring in our house and he helped us every step of the way. We chose manufactured hardwood flooring for the living room and bedrooms and tile in the kitchen and both bathrooms. They did incredible job and the quality of work is superior! We are going to use Footprints Flooring to update both showers in the house as well. Tom made everything so convenient and stress-free!

Wonderful experience with Footprints Floors. I needed a very small repair to my LVP floor. Tom was very responsive and sent a skilled technician. I was treated as if I had ordered a houseful of flooring. I would definitely use them again for any sized job!
Cindy Vest 03/24/24 — google
Incredible service and attentiveness to needs and concerns. Tom (the owner) is an excellent communicator and i knew immediately, after our initial interview, that I would be using him and his business. He did not disappoint. Would highly recommend him.
Phillip Elliott 03/22/24 — google
The sales consultant Tom was professional and easily to work with to get this project completed in a timely fashion. The installer Leo was very miticulous and did a fabulous job on our hallway floor and bathroom after our toilet flooded. I am very happy with my new flooring. Thank you Tom and Leo for great customer service!
Katherine Dykes 02/21/24 — google
While surfing the net for a contractor to do my backsplash, I happened to run across this company. Tom, the boss man, was easy to talk to and worked with me from recommending a tiling company to purchase tiles to getting Luis, an expert tiler, who really did a bang up job in installing them. I couldn’t be more impressed with this company.
Neil Noble 02/6/24 — google
Great job. Beyond my expectations.
Randy McVey 01/23/24 — google
Very reasonable price and was a small job but was hard to find someone to do it. They did it for us. Steve came out and did a great job. Thanks footprint flooring for getting it done. Mark and Desiree
Desiree Engel 01/16/24 — google
We had a last minute job that needed to be taken care of asap due to the house being sold. Tom and his guys not only re-arranged their schedules to meet ours, but did a fantastic job refinishing the floor. Highly recommend for professionalism and performance.
Brian Rodrigues 12/21/23 — google
Tom came to take measurements for laying the tile. He also make several suggestions for a quality job. The big box store estimator also came and took measurements only. The "footprints" price was reasonable with the added suggestions. I grade Tom and his crew as 5 star.
Gerald Jacobs 12/18/23 — google
Footprints Floors is simply the best! I had a kitchen backsplash and a shower floor installed and I couldn’t be happier with final result. From the very first meeting with Tom and also his installer, I knew I had made the right choice. The cost, workmanship, and timeline were perfect in every way. I highly recommend Footprints Floors! AAA+
