It depends on the wear layer thickness of your specific product. Many engineered hardwood products installed in NC-540 corridor communities have a wear layer that can support one or more sandings. We measure it during the free assessment. Our Bona PowerDrive is particularly valuable here. It removes less material per pass than a drum sander, preserving more wear layer per sanding cycle.

White oak requires specific expertise in sanding and staining. It is the most popular species in the Triangle right now and also one that rewards experience and punishes shortcuts. We water pop every white oak floor that receives stain, opening the grain for deeper and more even color absorption. Most contractors skip this step. The difference is visible.

Refinishing in Apex ranges from $4.50 to $9.00 per square foot. With a median home value near $585,000, Apex homeowners typically choose premium finish systems on the higher end of that range. White oak floors, which are common in newer Apex communities along the NC-540 corridor, require specific sanding expertise and water popping before staining to achieve the color depth and consistency the species is capable of. Engineered hardwood over slab is assessed per job with wear layer measurement. Recoating starts at $2.00 per square foot. New installation runs $15 to $25 per square foot. We provide written estimates after a free in-home assessment.

We serve all Apex communities including Haddon Hall, Abbington, Scotts Mill, Bella Casa, The Villages of Apex, Friendship Station, Whitehall Manor, Williams Grove, Walden Creek, Historic Downtown Apex, and the NC-540 and US-64 corridor neighborhoods.
