Hardwood floor refinishing in Dartmouth
Dartmouth runs from pre-war houses near the harbour out to post-war and newer subdivisions, so the floors vary a lot. We match the approach to what you actually have.
A wider mix of floors than the peninsula
Because Dartmouth was built out over a much longer stretch of time, what you find under the carpet changes street by street. Older houses near the downtown and the harbour tend to have the same narrow-strip maple and oak as the Halifax peninsula. Post-war neighbourhoods are more likely to have wider strip oak, and anything from the last twenty-five years may be engineered flooring with a thin veneer that cannot be sanded at all.
That last case is worth knowing about before you pay anyone. Engineered board carries a wear layer measured in millimetres, and once it is gone the floor is finished. We check what you have and say so plainly, including when the honest answer is that sanding it is not an option.
Getting a straight answer in Dartmouth
With that much variation, an in-person look is worth more than any estimate off a photo. We check the species, the board thickness, how many times the floor has been sanded already, and whether there is any cupping near exterior walls or under a bathroom before we recommend anything.
