FAQs About Flooring on the Upper West Side

Do you serve the Upper West Side?

Yes. Hudson Floors works on the Upper West Side regularly, along with Lincoln Square, Manhattan Valley, Morningside Heights and Central Park West. Call (973) 560-0090 to check availability for your address.

Can you meet my building's insurance requirements?

We carry $5M liability coverage, which clears the insurance thresholds set by most co-ops, condos and managed buildings on the Upper West Side. We issue the COI naming your building, managing agent and owner before work begins.

How long does refinishing take in an occupied apartment?

Expect two to three days for one room, cure time included, 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 on the Upper West Side. 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 agreements, COIs and building rules in pre-war co-ops, brownstones and doorman condos. Send us your managing agent’s contact and we will deal with the paperwork directly.

What are your working hours in buildings with restrictions?

Typical building rules permit work from 9am to 4pm, Monday to Friday. We plan around your building’s rules and the service elevator schedule so the job stays on track.

How much does hardwood flooring cost on the Upper West Side?

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 on the Upper West Side 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. It comes down to wood species, board width, stain colour, age and finish. We review the space and recommend the closest approach during your consultation.
