Why Naperville Homeowners Choose FLOORecki

Naperville has one of the highest concentrations of homes with carpet over original hardwood floors — built in the 80s and 90s when carpet was standard. We remove carpet and refinish the original oak underneath more often in Naperville than anywhere else we work. It's one of the best value projects a homeowner can do — and the results are consistently dramatic.

Carpet over hardwood? Naperville subdivision homes built between 1985–2005 almost always have original hardwood hidden under carpet. Removing carpet and refinishing what's underneath typically costs $4–$6/sq ft total — far less than new flooring and with far better results.

Stair upgrades are popular in Naperville. Many subdivision homes have builder-grade carpeted stairs that homeowners want replaced with hardwood treads and iron spindles. We handle this regularly throughout Naperville — it's one of our most requested projects in the area.

Common Questions — Naperville

We have carpet — is there hardwood underneath?

Likely yes, if your home was built before 2005. Most Naperville subdivision homes built in the 80s and 90s have original oak hardwood under the carpet. To check, lift a heat register or look in a closet corner where the carpet meets the wall — you'll often see the edge of the hardwood. We can also verify during an on-site evaluation at no charge.

How much does it cost to remove carpet and refinish hardwood in Naperville?

Carpet removal runs approximately $0.75/sq ft. Refinishing the hardwood underneath starts at $4/sq ft. For a 1,000 sq ft main floor, you're typically looking at $4,750–$5,750 total — carpet removal, refinishing, and finish coat included. Use our Instant Quote tool for a specific estimate based on your square footage.

Can you replace our carpeted stairs with hardwood treads?

Yes — stair carpet removal and hardwood tread installation is one of our most requested projects in Naperville. We remove the existing carpet, assess the stair structure, and install new oak treads with the finish of your choice. Iron spindle replacement is often done at the same time. New tread installation runs $250–$400 per tread depending on materials and stair configuration.

How long does refinishing take in a Naperville home?

Most refinishing projects in Naperville take 2–4 days. We work room by room when possible so you're not displaced from the entire home at once. We use Bona Traffic HD water-based finish — it dries overnight and has very low odor compared to oil-based products.
