Our Hardwood Refinishing Services
Dustless Sanding
Our professional-grade sanding equipment captures 98-99% of dust at the source, keeping your Roswell home clean throughout the process. No dust clouds settling on countertops or in air vents.
Custom Stain Colors
Choose from dozens of stain options or let us create a custom blend. We apply samples directly on your sanded floor so you can see the exact color in your home's natural light before we commit.
Polyurethane Coating
We apply multiple coats of commercial-grade polyurethane for a finish that stands up to heavy foot traffic, pets, and everyday life. Choose from matte, satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss sheen levels.
Vintage Floor Restoration
Roswell's historic homes deserve special care. We restore original wide-plank pine, antique oak, and other vintage hardwood using gentle sanding techniques that preserve the wood's hand-milled character and old-growth grain patterns.
Hardwood Flooring in Roswell Homes
Roswell's historic core along Canton Street and Mimosa Boulevard contains some of the oldest residential hardwood floors in the Atlanta metro area. Homes from the 1920s through 1960s feature wide-plank heart pine, antique white oak, and in some cases chestnut floors that predate the blight. These vintage floors were milled from old-growth timber with tight grain patterns that make them harder and more durable than anything you can buy today. Many Roswell homeowners are committed to preserving these irreplaceable floors rather than tearing them out, and proper refinishing is how you do it -- careful sanding that removes just enough material to expose fresh wood without eating into the boards' remaining thickness.
West Roswell tells a newer story. Neighborhoods like Martin's Landing and Horseshoe Bend were built in the 1980s and 1990s with solid red oak hardwood that is now showing 30-plus years of wear. The Riverside neighborhood along the Chattahoochee features mid-century homes where proximity to the river means higher ambient humidity, which accelerates finish breakdown and can cause seasonal cupping and gapping. Many of these homeowners are refinishing for the second or third time, and stain color changes are popular -- going from the golden oak tones of the 1990s to the more modern gray-brown or dark walnut finishes that today's buyers prefer.

Frequently Asked Questions
In most cases, yes. Historic Roswell homes along Canton Street and Mimosa Boulevard often have wide-plank pine or antique oak floors that are 60 to 100 years old. These floors were built from old-growth timber that is denser and more durable than anything milled today. With careful sanding and the right finish, we can restore them to showcase their original character -- the patina, grain patterns, and warmth that make vintage hardwood irreplaceable.
Craftsman-style homes in Roswell typically look best with warm, natural stain tones that complement the architectural details -- golden oak, honey, or a medium walnut. We avoid going too dark on Craftsman floors because the goal is to highlight the natural wood grain, not hide it. We always apply stain samples on your actual floor so you can see how the color looks with your trim, walls, and natural light before we commit.
Gaps in older Roswell hardwood floors are normal and usually caused by decades of seasonal expansion and contraction. For small gaps (under 1/4 inch), we fill them with flexible wood filler that moves with the wood through humidity changes. For larger gaps, we can install matching wood slivers or rope caulk. We never recommend filling all gaps rigidly, because the wood needs room to expand in Georgia's humid summers.
Refinish. Almost always. Fifty-year-old hardwood floors in Roswell homes were typically milled from higher-quality wood than what is available today. Unless the boards are severely water-damaged, warped beyond repair, or sanded down to less than 1/4 inch thickness, refinishing will cost a fraction of replacement and give you a floor that looks brand new while preserving the original character of your home.
Hardwood floor refinishing in Roswell typically costs $3 to $5 per square foot. Historic homes with wide-plank pine or antique oak floors may run slightly higher due to the extra care needed during sanding. A typical Roswell home refinishing project runs $2,000 to $5,000 depending on total square footage and stain selection. Oakerds provides free in-home estimates with exact pricing.
