Why it matters
The problem with cheap hardwood floor refinishing
Scratched, dull, grey hardwood makes a whole room look tired – and most people assume they have to replace it. You usually do not. If the boards are structurally sound, refinishing strips away years of wear and gives you a floor that looks brand new, at a fraction of replacement cost and mess. The catch is the dust and the finish: done badly, you get grit in the coating and dust through the house for weeks.

Why us
Why Ottawa homeowners choose Solomon Flooring
You get an Ottawa team that refinishes hardwood week in, week out. We use dust-controlled sanders, help you pick a stain you will love, and lay down an even, durable finish. You see the difference the day we are done – and so does everyone who walks in.
If the boards are solid and thick enough to sand, refinishing is almost always the better value. We tell you honestly on the quote whether your floor is a good candidate.
How much dust will there be?
Far less than you expect. We use dust-controlled sanding equipment, so the mess and cleanup are kept low and your home stays livable.
How long before we can walk on the floors?
Light foot traffic is usually fine within about a day, with full curing over the following days. We give you exact timings for your finish.
Can you change the colour of my floor?
Yes. Staining is part of refinishing – you can go lighter, darker or a different tone entirely.

It depends on the size and condition of the floor. See our refinishing cost guide for ranges, then get a free written quote.
