Refinish Hardwood Floors Indianapolis Professionals Trust

Refinishing hardwood floors in Indianapolis can cost between $4-$6 per square foot, significantly less than the $12-$18 per square foot for replacement. This guide provides insights into why refinishing is a cost-effective, high-ROI upgrade for construction professionals. CountBricks offers an AI-driven platform that simplifies the process, ensuring a seamless experience from estimate to completion.

Why Refinish Instead of Replace?

Refinishing preserves the integrity of solid or engineered hardwood, offering a sustainable alternative to replacement. By sanding and resealing, professionals can restore floors at a fraction of the cost, allowing budget reallocation to other projects.
