Straight Answer
What it costs. Before you call.
Every other Toronto floor company makes you book a visit to hear a number. Here’s the range up front — the exact price is fixed in writing at your free in-home estimate, and it never moves after that.
Screen & Recoat
Refresh a floor that’s still sound
$2.50–4.00/ sq ft
A light abrasion and a fresh topcoat. No full sand — right when the finish is worn but the wood underneath is healthy. Extends the floor 3–5 years.
Best forFloors under ~10 years with surface wear only
Most common
Full Sand & Finish
The complete restoration
$4.75–7.50/ sq ft
Sanded to bare wood, stained to your choice, three coats of premium finish — all dustless. This is what most Toronto main floors need every 7–10 years.
Best forMost homes · scratches, greying, or a colour change
Premium & Hardwood Install
New floors or specialty finishes
$11.00–18.00/ sq ft
New wide-plank hardwood, oil finishes like Rubio Monocoat, custom stain matching, stairs and repairs. Priced per project after we see the space.
Best forNew installs, oil finishes, stairs, board repair
A typical 1,000 sq ft main floor runs about $4,500–$7,000, finished in 3–5 days start to furniture back in place.
What moves the number: floor condition, stairs, species hardness, a light-to-dark colour change, and board repairs. We walk every one of these with you on-site — no surprises, no change orders. That’s what “fixed price in writing” means.

Our reviews live on HomeStars, where we cannot edit them. We would rather send you there than reprint the flattering ones here.
Ask on your estimate visit and we will put you in touch with recent clients on your street or in your neighbourhood — people who have lived on the floor for a season, not just admired it on install day.
Straight Answers
The four questions everyone asks.
Yes — fixed, in writing, in your contract. Our senior estimator moisture-tests your subfloor and inspects conditions during the free consultation, so there are no "unforeseen conditions" to surprise you later. The number on paper is the number on your invoice.
Yes. Our dust containment captures roughly 99.7% of airborne particulate at the source using HEPA-sealed Festool and Bona Atomic systems. Most refinishing clients sleep at home every night of the job, and our water-based finishes are low-odour and walk-on ready in 2–4 hours.
Your finishes and materials carry their manufacturer warranties — typically 25–35 years on finish, up to 50 years structural — and we pass every one through to you in writing, itemized in your contract. If anything in our workmanship isn't right, we come back and make it right. No runaround.
A standard 1,000–1,500 sq ft installation takes 5 to 7 working days: moisture testing and acclimation, installation, then sanding, staining, and finishing. Refinishing is typically 3–5 days. Your written estimate includes a committed schedule.
