Got Questions? ## Cost Calculator FAQs How accurate is the hardwood refinishing cost calculator?+ It uses the same low and high per-sq-ft ranges as our published Toronto price tables, so the range is realistic for most homes. The final number depends on condition, repairs and access, which we confirm during a free on-site measure. Your written per-sq-ft quote is final. Why does the calculator show a range?+ Two floors of the same size can differ a lot: a clean red oak floor near the low end, a pet-damaged maple floor with a dark stain near the high end. The midpoint is a good planning number. Does the estimate include dustless sanding?+ Yes. Festool HEPA dustless sanding is included in every refinishing rate. There is no surcharge. How are stairs calculated?+ Carpet-to-hardwood recaps add $100-$200 per step. If you only want to refinish existing treads, use the stair calculator on the free tools page, which covers $15-$40 per step options. What is not included?+ Major board replacement, water damage repairs, furniture moving for heavy items, landings, railings and condo parking or loading dock fees. Each is listed separately on the written quote if needed. ### Still have a question about your floor? Phones are answered 24/7. Live crew Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pm.
