Why Refinishing Works So Well for Marietta Homes
Marietta has one of the densest concentrations of older housing stock in the Atlanta suburbs. Homes near the historic square date to the 1880s–1920s, and 1950s–1970s ranches fill the surrounding neighborhoods. Original hardwood is extremely common here — often under carpet, but worth every effort to recover.
Refinishing on these floors recovers what time and traffic took out — the depth of the grain, the warmth of the stain, the even sheen of a fresh polyurethane coat — without losing the character that makes older homes feel grounded. A new floor never quite gets that back. That's why we recommend refinishing whenever the board thickness allows it.
Georgia's humidity is the other factor. We sand to a level surface, give the polyurethane the cure time it actually needs between coats (not the rushed version), and the finish flexes through Marietta's seasonal humidity swings instead of cracking at the edges. If you've seen an old refinish job with peeling at the board edges — that's usually rushed cure time, not bad product.
Every estimate in Marietta is done in-home — we walk the floors, test the subfloor, and look at the specific conditions of your home before we quote. That means no surprises on project day and no scope creep. We tell you exactly what needs to be done and what it will cost, in writing, before any work begins.

Why Marietta Homeowners Choose Olivas
We've been working in Marietta and across Metro Atlanta long enough to understand what local homeowners actually care about: showing up when we say we will, doing the work right the first time, and leaving the home cleaner than we found it.

That means consistent quality, direct accountability, and a crew that's done this exact type of work hundreds of times.

What a Refinishing Project Looks Like
Here's exactly what happens from your first call to the final walkthrough — no guesswork, no vague timelines.
Day 1 — Sanding. We bring in dust-controlled sanding equipment that captures 95–99% of airborne particles. Coarse grit pulls the old finish and any cupping; medium grit levels the surface; fine grit prepares the wood for stain. We'll patch in replacement boards for any water damage or splits before the final pass.
Day 2 — Stain. We sample your chosen stain on an inconspicuous section first so you can see it on your actual wood under your actual light. Different species take stain differently — we guide the selection based on what the floor actually looks like, not a catalog photo.
Days 3–4 — Three coats of polyurethane. Oil-based (warmer amber, longer cure) or water-based (clearer, faster cure, lower odor). Three coats with proper cure between each is what makes a refinish last 10+ years. We don't skip the third coat to finish faster — that's where finish jobs fail.
Want to combine the refinish with other work? Most Marietta homeowners also handle a staircase renovation in Marietta at the same time so the treads match the floors, or add new hardwood installation in Marietta for an addition or porch conversion.
