Samples on Your Own Wood

Each sample is boxed in blue tape on sanded oak so you compare three or four colors side by side, near the window and in the darker end of the room.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Sanding scratches turn into dark lines under color, so a buffer with fine screens follows the big machine and the vacuum collects what is left.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Stain is wiped onto a small section and the excess pulled off before the next, so no lap lines show where one patch meets another.

One Year Staining Warranty

The people applying color in Ashby are Brazil Floors employees with NWFA training and insurance, and their work is guaranteed for a year.

/ LOCAL STAINING CREW

Floor Staining Throughout Ashby

We stain floors in farmhouses around the Town Common, capes on Route 31, homes in Mill Village and colonials near Route 119. Decades of sun turned a lot of these floors orange; we sand back to raw oak, lay out sample patches in your own rooms and apply the clear coat after the color has dried.

Hardwood Floor Staining Services

Dark walnut and natural oak are the two favorites around Ashby. Name any color and we tape off a sample on your floor so you see it in your own light.

Natural Look, No Stain

A Town Common farmhouse keeps its oak light and honest with only a clear coat over the wood.

Gray and Driftwood Tones

Soft gray suits a remodeled cape on Route 31 with white shaker cabinets.

Dark Walnut and Espresso

Espresso anchors a colonial off Route 119 and makes the white trim stand out.

Custom Color Mixing

One Willard Brook household mixed two stains to land somewhere between honey and walnut, and that is the color they live with.

Red Oak Toning

Red oak in a Mill Village home gets a toner, and the pink undertone settles into warm brown.

Color Change on Old Floors

Orange floors in the older homes near Trap Falls are sanded off and turned to dark walnut.

What does floor staining cost in Ashby?

Hardwood floor staining is $2.00/Sq Ft, including stain samples on your own floor, hand applied color and a clear protective coat. If the floor also needs a full sanding and three coats of poly, that is the $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing.

Can orange oak in an old cape go brown?

Yes. Once the old finish is sanded off, bare oak takes brown, walnut or espresso without the orange tint showing through.

Which colors do Ashby homeowners pick most?

Dark walnut and natural oak lead, with espresso, soft gray and custom blends close behind.

Can you stain steep farmhouse stairs?

Yes. Corners and treads get the edger and a hand scraper, then a stain chosen so the staircase ties the two floors together.

How long does the stain need to dry?

Overnight in most cases. Before the clear coat goes down, the crew comes back the following morning and confirms the stain is dry to the touch.

Should we leave the house?

Many stay. A few families spend the curing night elsewhere, mostly to avoid the odor.

How soon can you schedule the work?

Usually the day after the measuring visit, and the same small crew handles the sanding, stain and clear coat.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes. Our own NWFA trained staff do the staining, and the labor carries a twelve month warranty.
