What is usually under the floor here
Engineered wood or vinyl plank, with rarely enough solid material to refinish.
Newer construction leans on engineered wood and rigid-core vinyl. Both are built to be stable over concrete and both are built to be replaced rather than restored.
That shifts what we do here. The work in this stock is installation, repair of damaged sections, and stairs, which are the one part of a new house that is still built from solid material and still worth refinishing.
Worth knowing here
Slab construction is common in newer housing, and a slab has to be tested for moisture before any wood goes on it. That test is a number, not an opinion.
Most of the housing here postdates the federal lead rule
Approximately 13.6% of the homes here were built before 1978, so most addresses fall outside it.
The EPA rule covers paid work disturbing painted surfaces in pre-1978 housing. In newer stock most addresses sit outside it, which simplifies how the work is staged.
It does not change how we sand. Vacuum extraction at the machine is how our equipment runs regardless, because the difference in the room is obvious whether or not a regulation is involved.
What the work here usually looks like
Housing values here sit in the top quarter of our service area, and the majority of homes are owner occupied. In practice that means bigger floors, more wide plank and more custom stair work than the regional average.

Questions
Do you actually work in Robbinsville Center?
Yes. Robbinsville Center sits 24.7 miles from our base in Philadelphia, inside the area we cover. We quote the job before we schedule it, so you know the answer before anyone commits.
Can you tell me what my floor needs over the phone?
We can tell you what is likely, and this page is most of that answer. What we cannot do is quote a floor we have not seen, because remaining thickness and what is under the covering both decide the job and neither is visible in a description.
Do you bring the material?
Yes. We buy direct from the distributor and the material lands in the same number as the labor. Samples and larger offcuts come to the house so you choose in your own light.
Is there anything worth refinishing in a newer house?
The stairs, usually. They are still built from solid material in most construction, they take more wear per square foot than any floor, and they are the one surface where refinishing beats replacing.
