Answers before you book

Hardwood refinishing questions in Mill Creek

Can a Mill Creek kitchen floor be refinished without replacing cabinets?

Often, if the floor is suitable and the accessible work boundaries are clear. Discuss protection, toe-kick edges and appliance handling before the estimate is finalized.

Does every appliance need to be moved?

The required access and agreed floor coverage determine that. Identify each appliance and who handles moving and reconnection rather than assuming a blanket inclusion.

Will sanding correct old dishwasher water damage?

Not always. The source and wood condition need review, and some boards may require replacement before finishing.

Can the finish continue under retained cabinets?

Work is generally limited by the accessible footprint. Discuss what is exposed and whether any removal is part of a separately agreed scope.

When can the refrigerator go back?

Follow the actual finish’s guidance for heavy loads and use suitable moving protection. Confirm the plan before the appliance is returned.

Should the floor color match the kitchen cabinets?

It can coordinate without being identical. Compare a sample on the floor with the retained cabinetry and counters before approving stain and sheen.

Does dust-controlled sanding mean there is no dust?

No. Dust collection reduces sanding dust but does not guarantee zero airborne dust. Review room protection, cleanup and ventilation as part of the agreed project plan.

What workmanship warranty comes with refinishing?

Wills Flooring advertises a one-year workmanship warranty. Request the written coverage, exclusions and claim instructions with your estimate. Any manufacturer product warranty is separate.

I would highly recommend Wills Flooring! They were very easy to work with and accommodating when we had to move our installation date. We are very happy with their professionalism and the quality of the product. They replaced our entire first floor and stairs with LVP, removed carpet, leveled portions of the floor and built proper steps to code.
