Floor work in Moorhead? Estimates are free and in writing — call or send the form.
Moorhead is Fargo's older sibling across the river: pre-war and post-war houses around Concordia and MSUM with original oak and maple under the carpet, mid-century ranches with floors that have been sanded once and have more in them, and newer slab construction out south. The work here runs heavy on bringing old floors back — refinishing is the headline trade in Moorhead for a reason.
The second Moorhead signature is water at the entries. Spring melt, ice dams, and a high water table find the same doors every year, and the repair work follows: laced-in boards at entries and north walls, section refinishes that blend into the room, and honest talk about whether the floor cupped-and-will-relax or cupped-and-failed.
We schedule Moorhead on the same written ranges as Fargo — the river is a bridge, not a surcharge.
A note on the project on this page: it is representative of the work we do around Fargo and the Red River Valley — the kind of job, the way it is priced, and what the homeowner told us after. Verified customer projects replace these examples as jobs close.
Spring meltwater through a Moorhead entry door cupped and darkened 45 square feet of oak. Ruined boards laced out, new oak laced in, and the section sanded and finished to disappear into the floor around it.
“Every spring the entry looked worse. They replaced just the damaged boards and matched the finish so well I have to point at the spot for guests to find it.” — Julie, Moorhead
Price: $640 · Time on site: 1 day
A typical Moorhead project is the one the house has been asking for since the carpet went down in 1985: original floors sanded back to the wood the builder chose, a stain that suits the house's age, and an entry repaired where forty springs of melt worked on the same six boards.
1 · The Measure — We come measure free — rooms, moisture readings, and the wear-layer check on a refinish — and you hear real price ranges at the visit.
2 · The Written Price — You get the full price in writing, with the wood, the method, and the schedule named — before anything is signed or started.
3 · Prep & Acclimation — Old flooring out, subfloor fixed where the readings say it needs it, and new wood resting in your rooms until it matches your house's humidity.
4 · Floor Days — Install or sand-and-finish, room by room, dust contained and old flooring hauled as we go — nothing left in the driveway overnight.
5 · The Walk-Through — We walk every room with you in daylight — seams, transitions, trim — and leave the care notes for your finish before the job is called done.
College-area rentals and turnover work come up here too: tell us the turnover window when you call and we will tell you honestly whether a refinish fits inside it — between-tenants is exactly when these floors should be done.
