Benefits of Refinishing Your Hardwood Floors

147%

Cost Recovery at Resale

Ranks among the top interior projects for ROI, ahead of most kitchen and bath remodels.

Costs Less Than Replacement

Refinishing typically runs $4–$6 per square foot, versus $8–$15 to install new hardwood.

Preserves Original Character

Old-growth oak in older NJ homes is often denser and tighter-grained than what's sold new today.

Faster, Less Disruptive

Most refinishing jobs take 2–4 days, with dust containment and a quick-drying finish that let most clients stay home the entire time.

Less Waste

Keeps your existing wood in place instead of sending it to a landfill and manufacturing new material to replace it.

Saturday Repair

They repaired and refinished about 300sq feet of hardwood floors in our new home. The crew was very professional and neat and the finished floors were gorgeous… Thiago did us a huge favor on a Saturday and spent the day fixing the floor of the entire room…

Told Us Not To

Gorsegner Brothers did an AMAZING job sanding and staining the floors in my 101 year old house!!… When I asked Travis what he thought about trying to refinish them, with years of adhesives and layers, he was honest and recommended we not spend the money on it…

Dustless Sanding

Refinished floors have never looked better! Process of estimating, scheduling, and doing the work was as easy as refinishing wood floors can be! Best part was the actual dustless sanding and very neat crew. 10/10 would recommend!

Dark to Light

The second job - refinishing 125 year old floors - was amazing. The floors look new again. We went from a very dark color to very light. You'd never know they were ever dark. There was very little dust.

Job Grew

Initially I had hired them for a "simple" sanding and staining job… Several days turned into a multiple week and much more costly endeavor, but everyone involved made it a seamless and smooth project. The ease of scheduling was one of my favorite parts…

Stains Gone

This wood had accumulated stains and scuffs through the years; not too pretty… Almost every single stain is now undetectable, and the areas where walls once existed and there was no hardwood, you seamlessly blended and no one can tell otherwise.

Helped Us Choose

I wasn't sure which color stain I should pick, but the workers helped me decide which stain color would look best with our furniture. I did not have to clean dust, the men left our house spotless.

Matched Existing

After a flood in the house I only considered them to replace, sand, stain, and finish the floors. They did a great job replacing floors and matching the stain and finish to the existing floors. They provide excellent workmanship…

Carpet for 20 Yrs

We couldn’t be happier with the work Gorsegner Brothers did. Scheduling was easy, they arrived when promised and completed a beautiful refinishing job on our hardwood floors that had been covered in carpeting for over 20 years.

Hardwood Refinishing FAQ

Our Dust Containment System is certified as being 99% dust free. It is the best system on the market today.
Our talented technicians will sand a small area of your floor and lay up to 5 samples for you to choose from. This is the best way to see how the stain will look; taking into account the lighting, wall colors, porousness of your wood floors and various other factors.
Most refinishing jobs take 2–4 days: one day for sanding and staining, then 1–2 days for finishing coats with proper dry time between each coat.
You need to be available on day one for stain selection — that's the only time we require you to be on-site. After that, it really depends on what you can comfortably live with. Most of our clients stay home throughout the entire refinishing process.
A large benefit to our water-based polyurethane is that it is quick-drying. Roughly 3 hours after the coat has been applied, you can walk on the floor. Please do so in a clean, dry rubber-soled shoe, no bare foot or socks. Furniture can go back 24 hours after the final coat has been applied. We suggest you wait 3 full days before laying area rugs.
Most NJ homeowners pay $4–$6 per square foot, or about $5,000 for a typical 1,000 sq ft first floor. The exact number depends on the floor's condition, whether you're adding stain, and whether stairs are involved. See the full cost breakdown →
Almost always, refinishing is cheaper. New hardwood installed runs $8–$15 per square foot versus $4–$6 to refinish. The exception is when the wood is too thin to sand again — you need about 3/32 of an inch above the tongue and groove for another pass. Read more on refinishing vs. replacing →
Most of our clients stay home throughout the entire refinishing process. Our dust containment system is 99% dust free and our finish is a low-VOC water-based product that dries fast and doesn't fill the house with fumes.
