In a June 2025 review, a customer described 1929 original hardwood brought back across the whole house — worked around the radiators, with some very tough residue lifted off. A 2023 customer had 70-year-old white oak and maple that had spent about 30 years under carpet. Old floors are what people call Renaissance Hardwood Floors for. It is a solo New Hampshire business: sanding, staining, repair and finishing. The site says its operator has 20 years in the trade, including 10 years of commercial work in the Boston area with the Massachusetts Carpenters Union; reviewers call him Dan. Google carries 87 ratings averaging five stars, running from 2022 into 2026, and the Better Business Bureau grades the business A+. More than a dozen reviewers mention the same three things — he arrived when he said he would, explained the process before starting, and cleaned up at the end of each day. A July 2024 customer was away during the job, felt comfortable leaving a key, and got an email the moment the kitchen and living room floors were finished. The harder jobs show up often. A 2024 customer handed him a room of southern yellow pine with deep wear that had not been sanded in over 20 years; an October 2025 customer had hard maple stair treads redone after a previous job left the tread faces damaged by poor sanding. In April 2025, a painting contractor called him in after a cleaning agent leaked onto a customer's hardwood, because the homeowner asked for the same company that had refinished those floors the year before. Two practical things to plan for. A September 2025 customer moved all of the household furniture into the garage before the work began, so ask what has to be cleared and by whom. And a 2023 customer who chose an oil-based finish waited two weeks before putting heavy rugs back down. For tired, scratched, or badly sanded hardwood — including stairs and parquet — this is a strong call. Settle the finish and its cure time, the furniture plan, and the dates in the quote; one January 2023 customer's point was that the price quoted was the price paid, on the day scheduled.
We had Dan from Renaissance Hardwood Floors LLC refinish the hardwood floors in our living room and kitchen. The kitchen was in tough shape after years of rolling chairs and heavy traffic, with worn-through and stained areas. The living room had rugs over parts of it, so the exposed sections had been sun-bleached into a completely different color. Dan breathed new life into both rooms — they honestly look brand new. He's a detail-oriented, hard worker and finished the whole job in a couple of days. He used a penetrating oil finish rather than polyurethane, and he was genuinely helpful about ongoing care, walking me through how to clean and maintain the floors and what product to use. He said I should be good for six to eight years before needing a maintenance coat. Hopefully he's still around then — I'd have him back without hesitation. Highly recommended.
Highly recommend Dan the floor man! Super responsive, excellent communication, extremely knowledgeable, amazing quality, and overall great company!
My dinning room floors were yellow ish, full of scratches and some black marks,a totally different color from my beautiful living room. Till someone recommended Renaissance floors! What a beautiful experience!! They are professional, very efficient and So kind people! The customer service its amazing! Strongly recommended!!
I could not be happier with the way my hardwood floors turned out. Service was above and beyond what I expected.
Hired Renaissance Hardwood to refinish red oak flooring and a parquet hallway. Our goal was to restore the floor back to its natural color with a more matte finish. Out of all the contractors who came to give us a quote, Dan asked us the most questions about what we were looking for, went over options, and provided the most honest information about what outcome we could expect. He was able to work with us on scheduling so the work was performed while we were away on a trip. We came back to a brilliantly done floor. The finish is flawless and gorgeous. He replaced several boards which had been damaged by cat urine and I cannot find where the replacement was done. He also did an excellent job on dust control and cleaning. I've already recommended him to one other person and will continue to do so. Thanks Dan! Oh - Honestly I was just a little suspicious of all the 5 star reviews, so I'll add - Dan didn't provide any compensation/discount or payment to me to write this review at all.
