Comments from our editors:
For years people took wooden floors for granted. Then people became infatuated with resilient flooring, and later wall-to-wall carpeting. Now, once again, hardwood floors are back, and with good reason -- they are strong, durable and attractive.

Even after years of neglect, hardwood floors can often be restored to their original beauty. This bulletin, one of the series of 32-page publications from Storey's Country Wisdom, tells you how. Chapters include evaluating the floor, removing existing coverings, preparing the surface, floor construction, problems and solutions, replacing damaged flooring, exposing the raw surface, refinishing hardwood floors, and care and maintenance.
