"Through Angi, I requested a quote to change the carpets on my 3rd level to hardwood floors. Kelvin responded quickly and gave me an estimate to change all of the hardwood from carpet and added some work to the kitchen floor. The day of the project he said I would need to pay more money to change all the floors to hardwood on the 3rd level and charged me $500 for the work even though it was already included in the work scope. He left the floors behind the stove and refrigerator in the kitchen a complete mess and didn’t inform me that holes were left in the floor. The floor looked ten times before the work that was done leaving me wondering about the qualifications of his staff because what professional would do that and purposely hid bad work behind the appliances."

Hardwood flooring services FAQs

The cost to refinish hardwood floors is $1,900 on average, ranging from $600 to $4,500, depending on the area size, the floor’s condition, the type of wood, the type of coating, and the refinishing method. Traditional refinishing includes sanding the floors, which can be very dusty and costs about $3 to $8 per square foot. Dustless refinishing uses a vacuum to collect dust during the sanding process, reducing the amount of dust produced, and costs about $5 to $8 per square foot

The cost to install hardwood flooring is about $4,800 on average, ranging from about $1,000 to $12,000. Nationally, the average cost to install hardwood floors ranges from $6 to $12 per square foot for labor and materials. High-end woods and large spaces may cost $13 to $25 per square foot

Additional cost factors include:

  • Square footage of the area

  • Type of wood

  • Preparation requirements

  • Type of finish

  • Location

  • Floor style and pattern

  • Plank thickness

  • Wood grade, color, and grain

It’s time to refinish your hardwood floors when they show signs of age that diminish their overall appearance and function. A few surefire signals that you should consider refinishing your hardwood floors include:

  • Gouges, scrapes, deep scratches, and dents over a significant area

  • Discoloration from stains or sun exposure

  • Water damage causing rotting, warping, or bowing

  • Weak, spongy, or soft spots in the floor indicating damaged subflooring

  • Dull and worn appearance across most of the floor

Despite the costly upfront expense, hardwood floors can add value and appeal to your home, making them one of the highest ROI home improvements. In terms of functionality, hardwood floors are very durable and can last several decades when properly maintained, making them well worth the investment. In some cases, installing hardwood floors can even alleviate allergies in household members, as it’s easier to keep this floor type free of dust mites, pet dander, pollen, and other pesky allergens.

Several kinds of wood can be used for wood flooring, not all being hardwood, ranging in price per square foot. You should choose the best type of wood for your flooring based on desired color, cost, durability, feel, and texture.

Check out the cost of common wood types per square foot:

  • Maple: $7–$11

  • Pine: $5–$10

  • Bamboo: $5–$11

  • White ash: $9–$13 

  • Hickory: $6–$13 

  • Red oak: $8–$13 

  • White oak: $8–$15 

  • Brazilian walnut: $11–$20
