When pricing a floor finishing job, be sure to consider both material costs and labor. The average cost ranges from about $1.63 to $25 per square foot, depending on the complexity of the work and the materials used. A typical cost for refinishing hardwood floors falls between $6.49 and $7.92 per square foot, serving as a reliable benchmark for setting your prices.
For labor, contractors can expect rates from $25 to $40 per hour; however, many also charge based on square footage. Ensure that your pricing reflects the quality of your work and properly covers your expenses, including material costs and desired profit margin. You should also account for different tiers of service to accommodate various client needs.
