If said tools and techniques are uncovered while being paid to accomplish this "floor re-finishing", then No they do not have any legal right to re-use it. In reality, will folks re-use/re-purpose what they've done? Absolutely but they have no legal right to it and by taking such actions they are placing themselves (albeit how greatly some people like to argue about) in peril of legal proceedings against them. How often would that happen? More often then people might realize.
Then if that is the case experienced coders (and laborers) should make the same as new coders, since you wouldn't be able to ever grow and progress. Oddly, companies that have these sorts of agreements are usually very willing to pay pretty well for expertise ;-).
