Flooring Restoration

With Top Industry Professionals in Portland


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 Portland 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.

Excellent craftsmen installed our LVP. Follow up was fabulous on a completely unrelated issue.
Nancy Houk 01/27/24 — google
Highly recommend this service! I had Tony come visit me to give me the 411 on my original wood floors condition and it was so fun to learn so much about them from him. I really appreciate the integrity and not having to do services just for the sake of paying someone, Tony instead gave me reassurance and tips on how to maintain the remaining life of the floor. I will reccomend their business to anyone seeking services/guidance in this regard. Thank you! Happy holidays 😊

Tony did an outstanding job repairing our damaged oak flooring. Highly recommend.
Margot and Joe Gibson 04/18/23 — google
The repair looks as good as the day the floor was put down about 20 years ago. Footprints - Tony, was helpful with suggestions on how to proceed after a dishwasher issue that damaged our prefinished hardwood flooring that was in place for a good long time. The work was perfect. The technician was professional and detailed, Brandon did an excellent job.
Catherine Hyatt 04/11/23 — google
Awesome work will use again in future projects
Frankie Santos 04/11/23 — google
Tony and his crew did a beautiful job on our living room, dining room, kitchen and bedroom floors. We were under a time constraint and they worked hard to accommodate our schedule. Tony did a great job of explaining the process every step of the way. The finished floors are stunning — even better than we imagined.
