"I highly recommend Monteros Hardwood Flooring. They refinished the hardwood floors at our Redlands home and they look new and we are extremely happy with the results. Javier communicated regularly throughout the project. His team is professional, efficient and very prompt and the work was finished in a timely manner. We are very pleased with the results and we highly recommend them."

About Rancho Cucamonga Homes

Housing profile: Newer construction (1995 – 2020) dominates, with two-story 2,500 – 5,000 sq ft homes on slab. Alta Loma has a stock of older 1970s ranches with raised foundations that often hide original oak under carpet.

Refinishing FAQ for Rancho Cucamonga Homeowners
- Yes - Rancho Cucamonga is one of our core service cities. We work in Alta Loma, Etiwanda, and the rest of the city weekly. Our shop is about 22 minutes away in San Bernardino, so response times are fast.
- Rancho Cucamonga pricing aligns with our standard Inland Empire range: $3 – $7 per square foot installed. Final price depends on square footage, floor condition, and stain choice. Free in-home estimate gives you exact numbers.
- 3 – 5 days, including cure time. Rancho Cucamonga permitting is generally fast - most jobs don't require a permit; the few that do (significant subfloor work) we handle for you.
- If you have at least 1/8 inch of wood above the tongue and groove, you can refinish. We measure during the free estimate and tell you straight. Engineered floors may have a thinner wear layer - ask before assuming.
- Far less than the old days. We use a dust-contained sanding system that captures most particulate at the source. Expect light residual dust on hard surfaces - we wipe down at the end.
- Sock feet after 24 hours. Shoes after 48. Furniture back after 5 days. Area rugs after 14 days - the finish needs that long to fully cure.
- We always do a 2 ft x 2 ft test patch in your home with your wood and your light before sanding the whole floor. You sign off on the color before we commit.
- Solid 3/4-inch hardwood typically handles 4 – 7 full refinishes over its lifetime. Screen-and-recoat (light refresh) can be done many more times in between.
