Sanding and refinishing in Stoughton costs $4 to $9 per square foot, and your family can stay in the house while the water-based coats go on. New hardwood costs $10 to $22 per square foot with the wood included, which is why we suggest replacing a floor only when sanding can't save it.
We look at the wood before we price anything, because Stoughton's houses are old enough for it to matter. Half of the town's 11,742 homes were built before 1970, and the 1970s added 2,376 more, the biggest single decade in the census estimates. A solid floor can be sanded only so many times, and a house that age may have had its floors done once or twice already. Where the top layer is too thin for another pass, we replace those boards and sand the rest of the room.
About three in four Stoughton homes are lived in by their owners. If you plan to stay, pick each room's finish for how that room gets used. A kitchen with a back door the dog runs through needs a tougher coat than a guest room, and we'll tell you which one fits each room when we see the house.
