Samples on Your Own Wood
Every sample gets its own taped rectangle on sanded oak, so you compare colors side by side in sun and in shade.

Sanding scratches show up dark under stain, so a fine screen pass comes first and the vacuum follows right behind it.
Stain goes on one section at a time and the extra is wiped away before the next, so you never see a lap line.
In Barkhamsted the stain work is done by Brazil Floors employees who are insured and NWFA certified, with the labor warrantied for one year.



The price is $2.00/Sq Ft and includes stain samples on your floor, hand applied color and a clear protective top coat. If you want a complete sand, stain and three coats, that is the $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing service.
Yes. Samples go onto your floor in your own light, and you choose from those.
To change the shade, yes, because stain needs bare wood. Our crew handles that prep.
We mix test blends on spare boards until they agree, then put a sample on the floor before any full coat.
Expect to stay off it in shoes for a day or so, and we confirm the exact timing for your finish.
Yes. Hand refinishing a stair is $50 per step, while a brand new tread is $60.
We move furniture for a flat $250. If you prefer to do it yourself, clear the rooms before the crew comes.
Employees of Brazil Floors, never subcontractors. Each is licensed, insured and NWFA certified, and our labor carries one year of warranty.
