Just a hint...  After you get your hardwood floor finished or
refinished, be sure to apply glider buttons to the bottoms of all of
your chair and table legs.  The best ones I've seen are akin to nails
with overgrown teflon heads.  A cheap but workable substitute is a
piece of carpet glued to the leg bottom.  

Also, polished floors are very slippery underneath dry fabric rugs and
wet feet.  Make sure any throw rugs have rubber anti-slip coatings on
their bottoms.
