Floors That Look New Without Replacement

Hardwood Refinishing in Minnetonka for worn surfaces that have lost their original appearance

Floored® By Dave's Flooring Company™ specializes in refinishing hardwood floors throughout the beautiful community of Minnetonka, employing an expert process that meticulously restores the wood's natural beauty while expertly addressing surface damage that has accumulated over years of use. What may appear to be permanent wear often resides solely in the finish layer, indicating that the wood underneath remains structurally sound and primed for rejuvenation. Through the art of refinishing, we effectively remove the damaged surface, level out inconsistencies, and apply a premium protective finish that not only revives clarity but also enhances the durability of floors in both residential homes and various commercial spaces.


The refinishing process is thorough and involves sanding away the existing finish as well as a thin layer of wood underneath. This essential step effectively eliminates scratches, stubborn stains, and discoloration that routine cleaning simply cannot rectify. Once the wood is meticulously exposed and leveled to perfection, new coats of finish are applied to seal the surface, providing robust protection against moisture, constant foot traffic, and the inevitable wear that comes with daily use. This comprehensive work tackles floors that have become dull, scratched, or unevenly colored, all while safeguarding and preserving your original wood investment.


To explore the transformative possibilities for your floors, we invite you to schedule an in-home consultation. During this personalized visit, we will thoroughly evaluate the condition of your floor and engage in a detailed discussion about finish options that seamlessly align with your property's specific use patterns. Let us help you bring the beauty back to your hardwood floors!

What Proper Refinishing Requires

Refinishing begins with sanding equipment that removes the old finish in stages, starting with coarser grits to level the surface and progressing to finer grits that smooth the wood for finish application. Floored® By Dave's Flooring Company™ uses dustless sanding upgrades that capture particulates during the process, reducing airborne dust that would otherwise settle throughout the property. This approach keeps adjacent rooms cleaner and shortens the time needed for post-refinishing cleanup.


After refinishing, your floors display consistent color across the entire surface, with grain patterns visible through a clear protective layer. Scratches that previously caught light and appeared white or gray disappear, replaced by smooth wood that reflects light evenly. The new finish also restores the floor's resistance to water and staining, meaning spills that once left marks can be wiped away without permanent damage.


The refinishing process includes options for different finish types based on your priorities. Oil-based finishes provide a warm amber tone and long cure times, while water-based finishes dry faster and maintain the wood's natural color. Floored® By Dave's Flooring Company™discusses these trade-offs during consultation, helping you select a finish that aligns with your timeline and aesthetic preferences while meeting the performance demands of your space.

What Property Owners Usually Ask

Refinishing works for floors throughout the Twin Cities region, where temperature fluctuations and seasonal humidity changes affect how wood expands and contracts. The following questions address common considerations before starting a refinishing project.

How many times can hardwood floors be refinished?

Most hardwood floors tolerate four to six refinishing cycles depending on the thickness of the wood above the tongue-and-groove joint, with each refinishing removing approximately one thirty-second of an inch of material.

What preparation does refinishing require?

You remove all furniture and floor coverings from the work area, and the refinishing crew seals doorways to contain dust even with dustless sanding systems in use.

How does Minnesota's climate affect refinishing timing?

Winter heating and summer humidity in Minnetonka create different drying conditions for floor finishes, with lower humidity in winter often speeding cure times while higher summer humidity extends them.

What determines whether a floor can be refinished?

The presence of solid wood at least three-eighths of an inch thick allows for refinishing, while engineered floors with thin wear layers may not have sufficient wood remaining above the core.

What happens to staircases during floor refinishing?

Floored® By Dave's Flooring Company™ offers staircase refinishing as part of comprehensive projects, sanding treads and risers to match the refinished floor and maintain visual consistency throughout your property.

Floored® By Dave's Flooring Company™ brings more than sixty years of flooring experience to every refinishing project, combining technical knowledge with attention to detail that produces floors ready for another decade of use.
