Bring Your Wood Floors Back to Life With Family-Owned Care

Your wood floors carry the story of your home — every step, every celebration, every season of life. Over time, those stories can leave behind scratches, dullness, fading, or everyday wear. And while that’s completely normal, it doesn’t mean you have to live with tired-looking floors.

At Premium Wood Floors KC, we’ve spent more than 15 years restoring wood floors across Kansas City, Overland Park, Olathe, Leawood, Shawnee, Lee’s Summit, and nearby communities. Because we’re a family-owned company with no subcontractors, your project is handled exclusively by our own trained, in-house craftsmen. That means one thing:

You get a beautiful, long-lasting finish from a team that truly cares about your home.

Whether your floors are scratched, faded, sun-damaged, or simply losing their shine, refinishing is one of the most affordable ways to give your home a fresh, updated look — without the cost of replacing your flooring.

Why Refinish Your Wood Floors Instead of Replacing Them?

Wood floor refinishing is one of the smartest upgrades you can make in your home. Many Kansas City–area homes already have high-quality wood flooring that simply needs attention — not replacement.

Here’s why refinishing is often the better choice:

You’re restoring the beauty of the floors you already have — not paying for demolition, disposal, and new materials.

Especially in older KC neighborhoods, wood floors add warmth, charm, and history.

Refinishing is eco-friendly and preserves natural resources.

A fresh finish can make your entire home feel bright, clean, and renewed.

Solid wood, engineered wood, prefinished wood, bamboo, and even some exotic woods can often be refinished beautifully.

Solid Wood vs. Engineered Wood: What’s the Difference When Refinishing?

This is where homeowners often get confused — and where our experience truly matters.

Solid Wood Floors

These can be refinished multiple times because they have a thick wear layer. Great for older KC homes with original oak or maple flooring.

Engineered Wood Floors

Yes — most engineered floors can be refinished. The key is the veneer thickness.

Our team evaluates:

  • Thickness of the top wood layer
  • Existing finish
  • Age of the floor
  • Condition of the planks

If sanding isn’t the best option, we may recommend recoating, which refreshes the floor without removing much material.

Prefinished Wood Floors

Many homeowners are surprised to learn these can be refinished too — often with incredible results.

With our in-house team’s experience, you get honest guidance on the safest and most cost-effective option for your specific flooring.
