Hardwood floor refinishing in Esquimalt
Esquimalt has a lot of older, modest homes with original wood floors worth restoring. We treat a smaller job as seriously as a big one and refinish these floors the way they deserve.
Older floors, close to the water
Many Esquimalt houses date to the early and mid twentieth century and still have their original fir. Being close to the water, these homes can see more humidity swing than places further inland, which is worth keeping in mind because moisture is what causes boards to cup and finishes to fail early.
Because we work locally, we manage dry times and humidity for the coastal climate rather than treating the job like it is happening in a dry interior. In practice that means we time the coats around the weather and give the finish longer to cure when the damp is up.
A fair look at a modest floor
On smaller Esquimalt homes the right answer is often the lightest one: a recoat that refreshes the floor for a fraction of a full refinish. An in-person look is what tells us whether the finish alone has failed or the wood underneath has gone too, and that is the whole difference between a recoat and a sand-back.
When you request a quote we come out free of charge. We look at the floors, check for any water damage near exterior walls, and give you a real number so you can decide with the facts in front of you.
