Hardwood Flooring Installation & Refinishing FAQ for Denver Homeowners

How often should Denver homeowners get hardwood flooring installation & refinishing?
Given Denver's intense high-altitude uv (5,280 ft elevation accelerates fading), most homeowners benefit from hardwood flooring installation & refinishing at least once a year. Post-hail roof and siding inspection (May–August) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Denver most need hardwood flooring installation & refinishing?
Ranch and tri-level homes from 1960s–1980s and Victorian and Craftsman bungalows in older Denver neighborhoods are the most common home types in Denver and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Solid hardwood vs. engineered hardwood — what's the difference?
Solid hardwood is milled from a single piece of wood and can be refinished many times. Engineered hardwood has a real wood veneer over plywood, handles moisture better, and can go in basements. Engineered can typically be refinished 1–3 times.
Can hardwood floors be installed over concrete?
Solid hardwood cannot (moisture risk). Engineered hardwood can be glued or floated over concrete, making it ideal for slabs and basement levels.
How often do hardwood floors need refinishing?
Every 7–15 years depending on traffic, finish type, and maintenance. You'll know it's time when the finish is dull, scratched through, or impossible to restore with cleaning.
How long does floor refinishing take?
A typical 500 sq ft area takes 2–3 days including sanding, staining (if desired), and applying 2–3 finish coats. The floor needs 24 hours between coats.
