Hear From Real Homeowners

Joe Meyecic is a very professional man. He came out and did the estimate the morning after I called him at a time that was convenient to me. He quoted me much less than the other companies and did it much sooner than any of the other companies could perform the service. He was professional and walked us through everything at our pace. He came less than two weeks later and completed the job in less than three days which is what he quoted us. We refinished our floors and they look incredible now. I will definitely use him to lay my laminate upstairs!

The entire staff was wonderful to work with. Everyone was completely professional from the estimators to the craftsmen, and I truly appreciated the fact that the whole sanding process was completely dust free. We had a graduation party for our son the weekend after our floors were refinished. The change was so dramatic that people actually thought we had new floors installed. Two of our friends were so impressed that they called Williams the following week, and they are having their floors refinished as well.

From the initial estimate through the end of the project, our experience with Olde Tyme Craftsmen was, in a word, superb. As their name suggests, the work was of the highest craftsman level, and their attention to detail and customer service were old-school and second to none. You can tell your home and project are in good hands from start to finish. It's refreshing to still find a small, locally-owned, independent, specialty contractor who focuses on quality and customer satisfaction at a fair price.

The Bona Certified Craftsman Advantage

What You Need to Know About Refinishing Hardwood Floors

FADED & WORN

Don't let your floors get too worn. 51% of homeowners say the worn condition of floors has the largest influence on decision to refinish.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

Overly worn floors can be expensive. Avoid letting the finish wear off to the bare wood so you don't need to replace the floor boards.

DON'T WAIT!

Lack of knowledge is a barrier to getting floors refinished. 26% think it will disrupt the family, 23% worry about dust and 17% are concerned about odor.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

Get educated - Bona Certified Craftsman Five Star Advantage Program provides a worry-free refinishing experience.

GO PRO

Homeowners who used a professional to refinish their hardwood floors are likely to have had fewer frustrations. They were less likely to be frustrated by dust, disruption to family or pets or duration of the process.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

Consumers report that Bona's Certified Craftsman Five Star Advantage Program makes refinishing floors easier to understand.

NO DUSTY MESS

Dust containment systems make refinishing hardwood floors clean and safe by reducing airborne dust by 99.8 percent. (Traditional wood floor finishing methods can produce wood dust particle counts 200 times over the OSHA limit.)

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

All Bona Certified Craftsmen have been professionally trained to use the complete Bona system on your hardwood floors

WATER vs. OIL

It's a common misconception that water-based finishes aren't as durable as oil-modified finishes. In Taber test results, it's proven that waterborne finishes withstand the wear and tear of commercial and residential floors better than oil-modified finishes.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

Bona waterborne finishes protect your health and the environment, while assuring the ultimate in durability and beauty.

DO YOU SMELL THAT?

Go with a waterborne finish to avoid odor and smell. Oil-modified and acid-cure finishes emit extremely high VOCs and harmful fumes causing the homeowner, pets and plants to vacate the home for 2-3 days.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

FACT: Acid-cure finishes give off formaldehyde (a carcinogen) during the curing process which lasts more than 30 days.

KEEP IT GREEN

Look for third-party certifiers, such as Design for Environment (DfE), LEEDs and GREENGUARD. These organizations test products for indoor air quality and safety providing consumers with tools to determine healthy products.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

Bona's complete hardwood floor finishing and floor care system is GREENGUARD® Certified for Indoor Air Quality.

STAY PUT

Most homeowners can be in their house (without shoes) the same day as the refinishing process.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

Use a Bona Certified Craftsman and you'll be done in 3 days or less.

KEEP IT CLEAN

62% of homeowners claim to clean their floors weekly while 18% are daily cleaners. 19% say they clean their floors monthly.

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU

Look for cleaning products like Bona that are safe for floors, families and the environment.
