DIY Hardwood Floor Restoration Time Lapse - Sanding and Refinishing 700sq ft of Flooring

In this video, my brother and I refinish 700 square feet of hardwood floor! This house has had a ton of work done to it. It was my grandparent’s house originally and my brother has been remodeling it. I wish I had all of the footage of everything he has done but I unfortunately do not as I have lots of projects of my own. This was a huge project that took 2 days of sanding! If you are planning on doing this, you should put aside plenty of time and realize it is going to be a massive amount of work.
