Frequently Asked Questions

Hardwood Refinish & Finishes

  • Why should I choose your Hardwood Refinishing service in high-end areas like Sandwich and Orleans?

    Our Hardwood Refinishing service is the highest revenue service we provide, focusing on premium, dust-contained sanding and expert application of finishes. We use the highest quality oil-based and water-based finishes to ensure a durable, beautiful, and long-lasting result that protects the value of your high-end home on Cape Cod.

  • What is the difference between an oil-based and water-based finish, and which is right for my floor?

    Oil-based finishes (polyurethane) are known for their deep amber tone, durability, and traditional look. Water-based finishes are faster-drying, low-VOC (low odor), clear, and maintain the natural look of the wood, which is often preferred in modern homes. We’ll consult on the best choice based on your wood type, traffic, and aesthetic preference.

  • Do you offer dustless or low-dust hardwood sanding?

    Yes, we utilize advanced dust containment systems during the sanding process. While “dustless” is nearly impossible, our equipment minimizes airborne dust significantly, making the refinishing process much cleaner and safer for your home in areas like Falmouth and Chatham.

  • How long does a typical Hardwood Refinish project take?

    A standard room typically takes 3 to 5 days, which includes sanding, staining, and the application/curing time for two to three coats of finish. Water-based finishes speed up the process compared to traditional oil-based finishes.

General Installation & Services

  • Can you help me choose a stain color for my hardwood floors?

    Absolutely. We offer a wide variety of stains and can provide samples on your specific wood species to help you visualize the final look, from light modern hues to deep, traditional tones.

  • I am considering LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) for my rental property in Yarmouth. Is it a good option?

    Yes, Vinyl Installation is an excellent, cost-effective, and highly durable option, particularly in rental or high-moisture areas. It is 100% waterproof and resists scratches better than many other materials, making it a high-demand service in the Mid-Cape region.

  • Do you handle the wall and backsplash work along with the flooring?

    Yes. We are a comprehensive surface company. We can coordinate your Tile Installation for backsplashes and bathroom walls, ensuring all your surfaces complement each other and that you have a single, reliable contractor for the entire scope of work.

  • What types of subfloor preparation do you perform before installation?

    Proper subfloor prep is critical. Our services include subfloor repair, patching, and leveling to ensure a flat, stable surface. This is essential for preventing warping, squeaks, and cracking in your new hardwood, vinyl, or tile.

  • Are your installation services warranted?

    Yes, all our professional installations, whether it’s Hardwood Refinish, Tile, or Vinyl Installation, come with a labor warranty in addition to the manufacturer’s product warranty, giving you peace of mind.

  • Do you offer free estimates or consultations for a major project like a new hardwood installation in Brewster?

    Yes, we provide free, no-obligation consultations and estimates. We will come to your home, assess the site, discuss your goals, and provide tailored recommendations for the best material and installation method (nail down, glue down, floating, etc.).
