Hardwood Refinishing
Our refinishing process removes scratches and stains through precision sanding, followed by premium finish application. This restores original beauty while extending floor lifespan. NWFA-certified technicians use dustless equipment to protect indoor air quality. Ideal for addressing pet damage, fading, or worn surfaces in Philadelphia's historic and modern properties.
Dustless Sanding
Advanced dust containment systems capture 98.9% of particles during sanding, maintaining cleaner environments for families and businesses. This technology enables faster cleanup and safer conditions compared to traditional methods, particularly beneficial for allergy sufferers and commercial spaces requiring minimal downtime.
Commercial Flooring
We specialize in high-traffic commercial installations and restorations for offices, restaurants, and hotels. Our solutions balance durability with aesthetics, using finishes that withstand heavy use while maintaining visual appeal. Nighttime and holiday scheduling accommodates business operations without disruption.
Stair Restoration
Our experts refurbish stair treads and banisters, matching existing flooring while enhancing safety and value. Services include structural repairs, finish updates, and design modifications like adding iron balustrades, completed with minimal access restrictions during work.
Floor Installation
From matching historic pine to modern oak installations, we source quality materials tailored to property style. Certified technicians ensure proper acclimation and subfloor preparation, providing lasting installations that increase property value and complement interior design schemes.

Questions
Can I stay in my home during hardwood floor refinishing?
Yes, our dustless technology allows you to remain in unaffected areas. We use containment systems and schedule work to minimize disruption.
Do I need to move all furniture before refinishing?
We recommend full furniture removal for efficiency, but offer partial moving services if needed, with adjusted timelines and costs.
Is dustless sanding completely dust-free?
While not 100% dust-free, our systems capture 95-98.9% of dust, significantly reducing airborne particles compared to traditional methods.
How long does hardwood refinishing take?
Most 1,000 sq ft projects complete in 3 days. Buff-and-coat services often finish in one day with minimal disruption.
What maintenance do hardwood floors require?
Regular sweeping, damp mopping with hardwood-safe cleaners, and professional recoating every 2-3 years ensure lasting beauty and durability.
Can water-damaged floors be repaired?
Surface stains often resolve with drying and refinishing. Severe damage may require board replacement by our certified technicians.

Joe and the whole team team at Hudson Hardwood Floors did the impossible to fix a water damaged floor in my kitchen and made it look better than it ever has! Joe was always responsive when I had questions and made sure that I knew what step the team was on throughout the entire process. If I ever need flooring repairs again, I will no doubt use Hudson Hardwood Floors.

Joe did a fantastic job re-sanding and staining our previously (very) red cherry wood floors (with many scuffs and markings) into beautiful dark brown Jacobean floors. Joe was very prompt in completing the work, keeping us in the loop with updates of the project, and providing us useful advice regarding floor maintenance. He was also very flexible in adjusting the scope of our project and extending wood refinishing to our floating staircase. We highly recommend Hudson Hardwood Floors and will definitely reach out to them if we ever need any additional work in the future. Five stars.

We bought a new house with ugly carpet over linoleum. We didnt want to live with that and wanted hardwoods ASAP before moving in! Joe Hudson was quick to give ballpark pricing, responsive to come take a look at the place, shared his honest opinions about linoleum (just install over it!), and was the only vendor we talked to in a very tough market who said he could start right away. He encouraged me to save money by removing the carpet myself, communicated with us throughout the project, added little changes and additions I came up with after starting without nickel and diming me on change orders

Joe and his team are great to deal with. Very communicative and helpful throughout the process. They did great work and my floors look fantastic. Most importantly though, Joe treats your floors like they are his floors. Can't ask for much more than that.

Joe has the best communication skills I have ever come across within the past 30 years dealing with contractors. He fit me into his schedule while I was dealing with an air conditioner leak that required almost all of our den floor to be torn out and replaced. He sent 6 men to work on it during the first day and finished the floor a day and a half earlier than expected. His crew is hardworking, neat and cleaned up at the end of each day. Renato was able to match the new flooring with the old using a natural finish. It looks Beautiful ! I plan to use Joe's company, Hudson Hardwood Floors, again
