Hardwood Refinishing in Portsmouth, VA
Measured, dust-contained restoration for Portsmouth’s historic heart pine and oak in Olde Towne, Port Norfolk and Park View.
A Century of Sanding Means Measuring First
Many floors in Olde Towne and Port Norfolk have already been refinished several times. Each sanding removes a little wood, and an old board sanded too far exposes its nails and tongue. So before we recommend anything, we check board thickness at a vent or threshold. If there is wood to spare, we sand with HEPA-connected equipment that keeps fine dust out of old plaster. If there is not, we will suggest a recoat instead of a sander.

Portsmouth refinishing FAQ
Our Olde Towne floors have black stains near the radiators. Can they be fixed?
A Century of Sanding Means Measuring First.
01Can you refinish without changing the color?
Yes. A natural or clear finish keeps the wood’s own color, and we sample first so there are no surprises.
02Will refinishing fix gaps between old boards?
Seasonal gaps are normal in old homes. Large, permanent gaps can be filled with wood slivers before finishing.
03How long does it take?
Typically two to four days, depending on repairs and the finish chosen.
