Hardwood Floor Refinishing Pricing
Curious about the hardwood floor refinishing cost Utah? The price for a sanding and refinishing project in Northern Utah can vary depending on the wood species, floor condition, job complexity, square footage, and your proximity to our location (no extra charge for the trip, though!).
Sand & Refinish Cost Breakdown
Hardwood floors with old glue residue or featuring bevels and hand-scraped details require extra effort for sanding and refinishing projects, which may increase the cost. Note that bevels and hand-scraping will be leveled into a smooth finish; however, if you want them restored? Add $1-$2 per square foot, discussed during your free hardwood floor refinishing quote and consultation with our estimator.
Prefinished planks with a durable Aluminum Oxide finish can raise the hardwood floor refinishing cost due to the extra sanding needed. Water-damaged floors pose additional challenges and might incur extra charges. Edging is another factor—baseboards, toe kicks, closets, islands, bathrooms, and corners demand meticulous hand-scraping to remove finish and stain, potentially increasing costs, especially in tight spaces like bathrooms where we sand behind toilets and sinks.
Most sanding and refinishing professionals, including us, apply a minimum charge—typically $1,200-$1,500—to make the job worthwhile. Our materials are of the highest quality and rather costly, plus travel, hence the “minimum charge.” Spot refinishing won’t match adjacent areas; for a seamless hardwood floor refinishing Utah look, the entire floor needs attention. For plank repairs, we can replace boards, but faded colors and yellowed finishes (or “ambering”) are hard to match—combine repairs with refinishing for the best outcome.
