Dunwoody is one of the most established communities inside the Perimeter, with a housing stock dominated by 1970s and 1980s homes throughout Georgetown, Wynterhall, and the streets surrounding Dunwoody Village and Brook Run Park. Most of these homes have original red oak or white oak hardwood that has aged into beautiful character and is well worth refinishing rather than replacing. Oakerds delivers dustless sanding, custom stain matching, and durable polyurethane finishes throughout DeKalb County.
Our Hardwood Refinishing Services
Dustless Sanding
Our professional sanding equipment captures 98-99% of dust at the source, keeping your Dunwoody home clean throughout the process.
Custom Stain Colors
Choose from dozens of stain options. We apply samples directly on your sanded floor so you see the exact color in your home's lighting.
1970s-80s Home Specialists
Most of Dunwoody was built in the 1970s and 1980s, and we have refinished hundreds of homes from that era. We know how this housing stock was built and what these floors need.
Floor Repair
Forty-plus years of life leaves marks. We address damaged boards, fill gaps, and fix squeaks before refinishing for a seamless final result.
Hardwood Flooring in Dunwoody Homes
Dunwoody's housing stock is dominated by 1970s and 1980s construction throughout Georgetown, Wynterhall, the streets near Brook Run Park, and the established neighborhoods surrounding Dunwoody Village. The original hardwood in these homes is almost always red oak or white oak, and after forty or fifty years of family life, those floors have a depth of character that newer flooring cannot replicate. Many show wear in the high-traffic paths between kitchen, family room, and main entry, and refinishing addresses that completely without replacing a single board.
The newer side of Dunwoody includes townhomes and condos in and around Dunwoody Village and the mixed-use developments near Perimeter Center. These properties typically feature engineered hardwood with factory finishes that wear unevenly over the years. Many can still be refinished depending on wear-layer thickness, and a screen and recoat is often the right answer when a full sanding would be overkill. We assess every floor individually before recommending the right path. Our work spans all of Dunwoody, including Georgetown, Wynterhall, Dunwoody Village, the homes near Brook Run Park, and Perimeter Center.
