This is by far the #1 question of all time. Your hardwood floors with proper basic care will out live you several lifetimes from the tree source. This is because a standard 3/4″ hardwood flooring has 5/16″ wear layer and can be sanded approximately 7 times with and average refinishing lasting over 30 years with todays protective polyurethane coatings.
Traditionally the answer is below grade level (below your soil line) is forbidden for solid hardwood flooring. But with new technology manufacturing of engineered hardwood flooring can be installed without any issues, so enjoy your extra space with a lifetime of hardwood flooring beauty.
Many species of hardwood flooring can be stained or dyed to achieve a different color. But not species offer a beautiful result. Oak hardwood flooring can be the best solution for staining or dying to create a beautiful array of color choices.

The cost of wood floor refinishing depends on many factors, the type of wood flooring (solid or engineered), thickness of top wear layer, type of existing finish (urethane, oil, aluminum oxide, etc), type of new finish (oil or water based finish), and other additional factors (groove depth, nails on the top, areas of wood repairs and replacements). The qulaity of a companies craftsmen and years of service expertise are also price considerations. Industry averages for your area will make a difference in the price as well.
