Re: Refinishing Hardwood Floors
I like a satin finish the best. Not at all glossy, and doesn't show wear and tear.

Re: Refinishing Hardwood Floors
Yeah, if you do glossy you will see more of the "traffic areas"

Re: Refinishing Hardwood Floors
We have two dogs and have not had a problem with loosing the shin on our hardwood floors (they are gloss finish).
I personally like the shine of gloss.

Re: Refinishing Hardwood Floors
we did high gloss, the guy said it is a stronger finish. but looks wise, I think i like semi gloss better.

Re: Refinishing Hardwood Floors
the prices I got from different companies varied (and not including a few replacement boards) sanding, no stain, 2 coats oil based poly was about $1.55-1.70 per square foot.
But, we are going with a past co-worker of DH's who left his field to work for the family's flooring business and who came highly recommended from a few people. We have been very pleased with the service so far and can't wait to see what our floors look like tomorrow after the sanding and first coat!
