Our hardwood flooring process in Marietta
- Free on-site quote. Call (404) 480-0962 or request one online. We look at your actual floors, including what is hiding under the carpet.
- Selection and acclimation. For new wood, you pick species, width, and stain, and the material acclimates in your home before install.
- Subfloor preparation. We flatten, repair, and moisture-check the subfloor, the step that decides how flat and quiet the finished floor feels.
- Installation. New planks are nailed, glued, or floated; repair boards are woven into existing floors.
- Sand, stain, and finish. Floors are sanded with dustless equipment, stained to your pick, and sealed as one continuous surface.
Marietta hardwood floors: common questions
Should I refinish my old floors or replace them?
Refinish, in most Marietta homes. Original oak sands back to bare wood and takes a new stain and finish beautifully, at a fraction of replacement cost. Replacement makes sense when boards are structurally gone, the floor has been sanded too many times, or you want a completely different look. We check thickness and condition at the quote and tell you honestly which side of the line you are on.
Can you match new wood to my existing floors?
Yes. Where walls have moved or damage is localized, we weave new boards into the old floor, then sand and finish everything as one surface so the repair disappears. Species and grain matching matters more than stain, since the whole floor gets refinished together. It is detail work, and it is exactly what older Marietta homes need.
Does sanding fill the house with dust?
Not the way we do it. Our sanders run attached to high-powered vacuum containment, which captures the overwhelming majority of dust at the drum. You will still want to cover sensitive electronics, but the days of a house coated in fine powder are over. Most Marietta refinishes happen while the family stays in the home.
How much do hardwood floors cost in Marietta?
It depends on whether we are refinishing or installing, the square footage, and the condition of what is there, so we quote every Marietta job individually and for free. Refinishing sits well below new installation, and engineered products below site-finished solid. You get an exact, itemized number after a free on-site visit.
