It's week one in the house and we're starting off with a bang! We have 2 weeks before we need to move out of the apartment, so we decided it would be the perfect time to refinish the hardwood floors!
We're always up for a project and figuring out how to do things ourselves, but we were also intimidated by stories of people really screwing up their floors and having to spend a ton of money to fix it. Luckily our floor was very even and only had a few deep blemishes to work out, so we decided to go with the orbital hardwood floor sander to help limit our risk.
We took advantage of the weekend rate from the rental company and only paid about $55 for the sander, but that meant we only had 2 days to complete allllll all of the floor sanding and keep the project on track.
We had some very long nights and a little broken glass, but we did it!
Things to note if you're planning to do this project:
- Be sure to price out your sandpaper. It was the most expensive part of the project.
- Buy more sandpaper then you need and plan to return extra
- Change the sandpaper often especially the heavy grits. It makes the job go so much faster and you will actually get the finish you are working towards!
- I would also plan on 1 sanding pad per room. Changing the sanding pad really helped the sander run smooth and it was harder for me to use as that wore down.
- Go for this type of sander if you can! It was so much less intimidating and gave us a lot of control over the project!
GOOD LUCK!

I started my full time travel journey at the start of 2020 when I quit my job. My plan was to travel the world, but my timing was horrible. I decided to stay closer to home and explore the US. That decision prompted me to build out my Ford Transit van and travel to 50 National Parks and I'm currently working on all 50 states. My goal is to get to all 50 states within a single year! Thanks for joining me along the way!
