FAQs About Flooring in Chelsea

Do you serve Chelsea?

Yes. Hudson Floors works in Chelsea regularly, along with the Flatiron District, the West Village, Hudson Yards and the Meatpacking District. Call (973) 560-0090 to check availability for your address.

Can you meet my building's insurance requirements?

We carry $5M liability coverage, which meets the COI requirements of most co-ops, condos and managed buildings in Chelsea. We issue the COI naming your building, managing agent and owner before work begins.

How long does refinishing take in an occupied apartment?

A single room typically takes two to three days including cure time, and a full apartment usually runs four to seven days. We use dust-containment equipment, so you can often stay in the unit for part of the job.

Should I refinish or replace my floors?

If the boards are solid and have wear layer left, refinishing is generally the better investment — common in the pre-war buildings in Chelsea. We will tell you honestly which one your floor needs at the estimate, even when replacement is the smaller job.

Do you handle the co-op or condo board approval process?

Yes. We are used to alteration applications and insurance paperwork in converted warehouse lofts, new-construction condos and walk-up brownstones. Send us your managing agent’s contact and we will deal with the paperwork directly.

What are your working hours in buildings with restrictions?

Many buildings restrict work to weekday daytime hours. We plan around your building’s rules and the service elevator schedule so the job stays on track.

How much does hardwood flooring cost in Chelsea?

Pricing depends on square footage, species, the condition of the subfloor and access to the unit. Refinishing generally costs less than replacement. We give a written estimate after seeing the space, with no obligation.

How soon can you start?

Availability varies by season, but we can normally schedule an estimate in Chelsea within a few days. Call (973) 560-0090 and we will give you a realistic start date.

Do you install over radiant heat or concrete subfloors?

Yes. Engineered planks are normally the correct choice over radiant heat or concrete, because it stays more dimensionally stable. We test moisture before installing either way.

Can you match new flooring to my existing floors?

In many cases, yes. Species, width, stain, age and finish all affect the match. We review the space and recommend the closest approach during your consultation.
