Because in Boston, your floors should reflect both style and strength.
When it comes to hardwood floor refinishing in Boston, everything starts with the foundation — and that means expert sanding and buffing. At GB Hardwood Floor Inc, our process goes far beyond a simple surface pass. We use commercial-grade equipment and precision techniques to eliminate deep scratches, dents, stains, and uneven wear, revealing a smooth, bare wood surface that’s ready to shine again. This stage is critical: a properly sanded floor ensures your stain penetrates evenly, your finish adheres flawlessly, and your floor stays beautiful for years. Buffing follows to smooth out micro-imperfections and give your floor that ultra-refined texture before sealing. No shortcuts — just clean lines, smooth grains, and a flawless foundation for a stunning transformation.
At GB Hardwood Floor Inc, we believe your floors should reflect more than just function — they should express your personal style. That’s why we offer custom hardwood stain finishes as part of our refinishing services in Boston, MA, allowing you to choose the perfect tone, warmth, and depth that aligns with your aesthetic. Whether you’re envisioning a rich espresso, a classic golden oak, or a modern gray wash, our team expertly matches your vision with precision-applied stains that enhance the natural grain and color complexity of your wood. We’ll guide you through sheen options — matte, satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss — so the final look feels uniquely yours. Because great design starts underfoot.
After your hardwood floors are beautifully sanded, stained, and brought back to life, they deserve a finish that protects them for years to come. That’s where our professional polyurethane coating comes in — delivering industrial-grade durability that stands up to Boston’s changing seasons, foot traffic, pets, spills, and everything in between. At GB Hardwood Floor Inc, we apply multiple layers of high-quality clear polyurethane — available in both oil-based and water-based options — designed to resist wear, repel moisture, and preserve the rich color and texture of your wood. You get a crystal-clear finish that enhances depth and grain while forming a long-lasting barrier against everyday life. Whether you prefer a sleek satin glow or a bold high-gloss shine, we tailor the application to match your vision and lifestyle. Because real protection doesn’t just sit on the surface — it’s built to last.
Before any stain touches your floor, we make sure the surface — and the structure beneath — is sound, strong, and ready. At GB Hardwood Floor Inc, our hardwood floor repair and restoration services in Boston ensure that every flaw is addressed, so your final result is as flawless as possible. Our experienced team replaces split or broken boards, fills unsightly gaps, and even corrects minor water damage that may have compromised the wood’s integrity over time. We inspect for cupping, warping, or loose planks — issues that can affect not just appearance, but the longevity and safety of your refinished floor. Why does this matter? Because refinishing a damaged surface without proper repair is like painting over a cracked wall — it may look good for a while, but it won’t last. Our repair-first approach ensures that your investment holds up beautifully for years to come, with smooth transitions, even finishes, and a rock-solid foundation you can trust.
