I currently have KRAUS Prestige 3 3/4 inch wide gunstock engineered hardwood, OAK. They disconnected this color. I need to add about 15 x15 in the kitchen and 15 x7 in the living room. My thought was to install any type of oak engineered hardwood, that matched the size and width. Then bring have the whole floor sanded and refinished. Is that the cheapest way? Any idea on how much refinishing an area 35x15, 15x15 about 750sq feet would be? Ballpark of course..... Thanks so much, I don’t mind installing it I just can’t match this up? chip MD

The oak is not very thick on the top side and can be sanded through very easily. In my area, sand and finish existing cost is $2.50 - $3.00 per square foot. Includes stain and 3 coats of polyurethane.
