Hardwood Floor Refinishing in Keyport, NJ
Paulo Floors provides hardwood floor refinishing for homeowners in Keyport and throughout Monmouth County. Scratched, dull or dated hardwood doesn't need to be replaced — Paulo sands the floor down evenly, then stains and refinishes it to look new again, including matching new sections into existing floors.
Refinishing is usually faster and more affordable than replacing a floor outright, and it can bring worn hardwood back to a like-new look without tearing anything out.

Reviews from actual clients.
Paulo installed new hardwood floors in my house and did an amazing job — we get compliments on it all the time. He was a joy to work with, the work was done on time, professionally, and the guys left the house clean. Strongly recommend for any flooring needs!
Paulo and his crew are fabulous! He's knowledgeable about hardwood and LVP flooring, went above and beyond sanding and staining our existing hardwood, feathering in a section so it matched perfectly.
Great customer service, quality results.
