Q: Your pictures look great and your website is very detailed! I have 4 rooms (dining, living, family, and office) that total 700 sq ft. 2 Are strip and 2 are parquet. We want to re-stain all 4 rooms to be the same. What would be the cost and how long would it take?
A: Roughly, $2520 plus tax to sand, stain and finish with 3 coats of premium quality, Poloplaz Primero polyurethane. (Note: depends on location, economy/year, etc. This Q was answered in 2011 or earlier in southern Ontario.) Likely 6 days at least start to finish. Parquet takes quite a bit of extra work to remove sanding scratches.
