MORE ABOUT JOHN & ACCOLADECommon questions
How long does hardwood refinishing take?
Timing depends on the size and condition of the floors, the repairs required, and the selected finish. We explain the expected schedule before work begins.
Do we need to leave the house during refinishing?
That depends on the rooms being refinished, your access through the home, and the finish system selected. We will explain when floors can be walked on and when furniture can return.
What affects refinishing pricing?
Floor condition, repairs, stairs, room access, and the selected color and finish can affect the estimate. We provide the recommended work and pricing in writing before scheduling.
Can you match existing hardwood?
Often, yes. We evaluate the wood species, board dimensions, grade, age, and existing color to determine the closest practical match and explain what variation to expect.
Do you repair damaged hardwood?
Yes. We repair damaged boards and problem areas when the surrounding flooring and underlying conditions allow for a sound repair. The recommended work is outlined before we proceed.

We are based in MetroWest and serve communities throughout MetroWest and Greater Boston. Visit our service-area page or contact us to confirm your location.
Are you insured?

Customer reviews
“I'd highly recommend John to install or refinish hardwood floors. He installed new flooring in several bedrooms and refinished the hallway to match and I am very happy with the finished product and he was great to work with throughout the process.”
Emma W
“The scope of the job included removing the old kitchen tile, leveling the subfloor, matching the new flooring to our existing hardwood, and refinishing everything for a seamless look. The end result is beautiful, and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.”
