We operate differently than a stand-alone installer and traditional showroom, and here’s how. We act as the estimator, designer, and quality control. We try to remove the miscommunication that can occur during home renovation projects. In our experience, installers are typically ineffective at estimating costs and managing client expectations. They often need someone to help move projects forward, someone who can follow up with them to ensure they are doing their job. Our subcontractors are bonded, insured, and licensed, just as we are. We have worked with many of them for more than 10 years and have the utmost trust in their credibility, honesty, and reliability. We operate out of contractor showrooms to offer our clients a broader range of products and services, which cuts down on the cost of having a traditional showroom. Traditional showrooms have higher markups associated with them and often can only install or sell what is shown in their showrooms.
"We had a fantastic experience working with HiHat Remodeling! Ami is incredibly easy to work with and has a great eye for design. She picked the perfect colors for our cabinets and walls, transforming our space beautifully. What really stood out was her flexibility—she adapted seamlessly to changes and unexpected challenges, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend her for any remodeling project!"

Aim to refinish your hardwood floors every seven to 10 years, depending on the amount of wear and tear they receive. You can also refinish your floors after removing wall-to-wall carpeting or after significant disrepair from traffic, sun, or water damage. During your hardwood floor refinishing, you might also want to consider refinishing your stairs at an average cost of between $40 and $75 per step. .
At an average cost to refinish hardwood floors of $3 to $8 per square foot, it may cost anywhere between $1,500 and $4,000 to refinish 500 square feet of hardwood floors. The final price you’ll pay for this home improvement project depends on the type of hardwood floor you have, local labor rates, and if you require any additional repairs or other tasks, like buffing and polishing.
Sanding is crucial to refinishing a floor properly, but to see whether your floor can go without sanding, perform a spot test on an inconspicuous, small area. Rub your hardwood with a sanding screen and apply a coat of polyurethane. If there's no residue after 24 hours, you can refinish your hardwood floors without sanding. However, you don't need to sand if you're recoating or polishing floors without underlying damage.
The best way to maintain hardwood floors is to clean them regularly with a push broom and use a mop with a cloth pad. Only use cleaning products designated for hardwood floors. Otherwise, you could damage them by stripping the finish. To remove tough stains, take steel wool and mineral spirits and buff gently with wax. Finally, you’ll want to install window treatments to ensure sunlight doesn’t discolor your hardwood floors.
