Refinishing

Hardwood floor refinishing in Dallas

Dallas has a lot of homes with original oak floors hiding under carpet or decades of old finish. Older neighborhoods especially have floors that were built to be sanded again and again.

When we refinish a Dallas floor, the old finish comes off down to clean wood, damaged boards are swapped out first, and you choose the stain on your own floor before we coat it. See how hardwood floor refinishing in Dallas works, step by step.

Installation

Dallas wood floor installation

Most houses in Dallas sit on a concrete slab, and the clay soil underneath shifts with wet and dry seasons. That makes moisture testing and the right installation method more important here than in many parts of the country.

We test the slab before anything is ordered and recommend glue-down, floating or plywood-over-slab based on what we find. Read our guide to hardwood over a concrete slab, or see our wood floor installation in Dallas.

Repair

Wood floor repair in Dallas

A leaking dishwasher, a pet accident or a dropped cast-iron pan doesn't mean a new floor. We cut out the damaged boards, weave in matching wood and blend the finish, so the rest of your floor stays. More on wood floor repair in Dallas.

Texas homes

What type of flooring is best for a house in Texas?

For a Dallas home, the best hardwood is one that tolerates humidity swings and works on a slab. Engineered hardwood is the most stable choice for slab installs. Solid oak remains a classic where there's a wood subfloor or room for plywood over the slab. Hard, tight-grained species and a durable finish hold up best to kids, pets and Texas grit.

Pricing

Hardwood flooring costs in Dallas

For a 1,000 or 2,000 square foot Dallas home, the price comes down to which service you need, the condition of the subfloor or slab, and the wood and finish you choose. Refinishing an existing floor almost always costs less than installing a new one.

Dallas homeowners ask

Dallas hardwood questions

Do you come to my part of Dallas?

We work across the city of Dallas from our base in Irving, right next door. Tell us your address when you request an estimate, and we'll confirm.

Is it cheaper to refinish or replace a hardwood floor in Dallas?

Refinishing is usually far cheaper, and most older Dallas floors have plenty of wood left to sand. Replacement makes sense only when boards are too thin, badly water-damaged or the wrong product for the space.

Do you sell flooring or only install it?

Ask us at your estimate. We'll help you choose the right wood for your home and slab, and explain your options for buying it.
