Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
A 'Basic' job, priced at $1–$3 per sq ft, typically involves less intensive sanding and is suitable for smaller areas or floors with minimal damage. A 'Mid-range' job, at $3–$6 per sq ft, demands comprehensive sanding to address typical wear and tear, staining, and polishing for standard hardwood floor projects, requiring more time and material for a more thorough transformation.
For irregularly shaped rooms, break the area down into simpler geometric shapes (rectangles, squares, triangles), calculate the square footage for each section, and then add them together. Always add a small buffer (5-10%) for waste and potential errors, especially if boards need precise cuts.
You should quote at the higher end of the Premium tier for projects involving extremely rare or delicate wood types, historical preservation work, custom stain matching, extensive specialized repairs, or when the client requests high-end, multi-coat finishes and exceptional attention to detail on a large or highly visible floor area.
Commonly missed costs include specialized dust containment systems, disposal fees for old materials, unexpected repairs (like subfloor issues discovered during sanding), travel time to the job site, and the cost of premium, low-VOC finishes if requested by the client. Always build in a contingency for unforeseen challenges.
Older hardwood floors may require more attention and specialized handling. They could have thinner wear layers, making aggressive sanding risky, or may have accumulated more damage over time. This can increase labor time for careful sanding and repairs, potentially pushing the cost towards the higher end of the typical $3–$8 per square foot range.
