We specialize in premium hardwood floor installation for residential and commercial properties. Our craftsmen work with 20+ wood species including exotic options like Brazilian cherry and tiger mahogany. Every installation includes subfloor preparation, precise board alignment, and seamless finishing to create durable, aesthetically superior floors that enhance property value and indoor air quality.
Sanding & Refinishing
Our comprehensive refinishing process restores aged floors to like-new condition through multi-step sanding, stain application, and protective coating. We use advanced dust-containment systems and eco-friendly finishes to rejuvenate original wood floors while preserving their historical character and structural integrity.
Custom Staining
We offer bespoke staining solutions to match existing wood tones or create unique color profiles. Our technicians blend custom stains for seamless transitions between old and new wood, ensuring consistent coloration across entire floors while maintaining the natural grain patterns that enhance each space's individuality.
Water Damage Repair
Our team specializes in repairing water-damaged floors through board replacement, drying systems, and structural reinforcement. We use moisture meters to assess damage extent and implement targeted repairs that prevent future issues while maintaining floor aesthetics and functionality.
Hand Scraped Floors
We create authentic distressed wood looks through manual hand-scraping techniques that produce unique textures unachievable by machines. This artisanal approach adds character to floors while maintaining dimensional stability and long-term durability through precise wood selection and finishing processes.
