Wood Floors are a beautiful and natural product that sets it apart from other floor coverings. The ultimate appearance and performance in any application, however, are dependent upon the installation and finishing process, with close attention by the installer and finisher to a number of details prior to and during the actual installation and finishing process.

Depending on the type of flooring we are installing for you; there are certain steps that we follow to guarantee a quality product and customer satisfaction.

STEP 1 - Remove old flooring - Carpet and tack strips removed. Sub-flooring repaired. If new construction we will install your wood floor over a sub floor that is generally unfinished 3/4 inch plywood flooring.

STEP 2 - We will deliver the flooring to your residents. Wood flooring needs to "REST" in your house for a few days before being installed. Natural wood flooring needs to acclimate to the environment of your house before we can install the flooring. This is important to avoid gaps where the flooring joins.

STEP 3 - We will install your wood flooring using the highest quality methods.

STEP 4 - Your new wood floor is sanded, sealed and buffed to bring out the beautiful finish.

Floor Preparation consists of removing exposed nail heads and tacks, taping baseboards for protection and sealing off areas with plastic to minimize sanding dust. We will replace damaged or irreversible stained flooring if needed.

Sanding removes old finish and wax and levels out irregularities in the floor. If possible, all cracks in the floor are filled.

Staining is an option if you want a color other than nature added to the floor. We provide stain charts and can actually sample the stain on the floor.

Finishing is the most important step for your floor's beauty and protection. We apply three coats of waterborne urethane finish. This superior finish dries clear and resists scuffing and household spills.

Drying time takes approximately four hours. At this time you may resume light activity on your new floor. However, the finish takes approximately seven days to reach its maximum hardness. Until then, be cautious of sliding chairs, replacing heavy furniture or replacing throw rugs
