/ Floor Staining IN BARNSTABLE
Wood Floor Staining Options
Hyannis Port cottages, Centerville capes and Barnstable Village antiques are full of oak that could use a new color. Test patches on your floor come first, and the Barnstable hardwood floor staining crew takes it from there, room by room.
Floor Staining
Sanding takes every trace of the old finish off, a fine screen smooths the oak and two vacuum passes clear the dust. Then the color is worked in by hand and the surplus taken off with rags.

Fine Grit Sanding First
Any sanding scratch left behind turns into a dark line once color hits it, so the Barnstable floor is screened with fine abrasive and vacuumed before stain goes anywhere near it.

No Blotches or Lap Marks
The stain is applied in small areas and wiped back before moving on, which is how a Barnstable floor comes out even with no lap marks.

One Year Staining Warranty
Our own payroll staff do the staining in Barnstable, with NWFA training and company insurance behind them, and a year of labor coverage on the work.
/ LOCAL STAINING CREW
Floor Staining Throughout Barnstable
Barnstable Village antiques, Hyannis Port cottages, Centerville capes and Osterville colonials all get stained by this crew. Years of sun turned many of these floors orange, so they are sanded back to clean oak, sampled in your rooms and sealed once the stain has dried.

Hardwood Floor Staining Services
On the Cape, mahogany and natural oak get asked for more than anything else. Name any other and it goes on your Barnstable floor as a taped test patch.
Natural Look, No Stain
A Hyannis Port cottage keeps its oak pale and honest under clear finish alone.
Gray and Driftwood Tones
Light gray works well in a remodeled Centerville cape with white shaker cabinets.
Dark Walnut and Espresso
Espresso grounds an Osterville colonial and sets off its bright white trim.
Custom Color Mixing
A Centerville family asked for two cans blended and got a shade between honey and walnut.
Red Oak Toning
Red oak in a Hyannis ranch gets a toner, which calms the pink down into a warm brown.
Color Change on Old Floors
Orange floors in older Barnstable Village homes get sanded off and turned mahogany.

Changing a floor's color starts with sanding it to bare wood, and the same Barnstable crew installs hardwood, laminate and waterproof plank and builds stairs.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat will staining my floors cost in Barnstable?
$2.00/Sq Ft in Barnstable, and that includes test colors on your own oak, color worked in by hand and a clear protective coat. A floor that needs the full sanding and three coats of poly is priced as refinishing at $2.50/Sq Ft.
Can orange oak be turned brown?
Yes. Once the orange finish is sanded off, bare oak accepts brown, walnut or mahogany with no trace of the old tint.
What shades are most popular on the Cape?
Mahogany and natural oak, then espresso, light gray and custom blends.
Do you stain cape stairs?
Yes. Edgers and hand scrapers reach the corners the big sander cannot, and the steps are stained to match both floors.
How long should the stain dry?
Usually overnight. We check that the surface is fully dry before the clear coat goes down so nothing drags or smears.
Should we leave the house during the work?
Most Barnstable families stay, though some choose a night off Cape while the finish cures, mainly to avoid the smell.
How quickly can you schedule the job?
Often the day after we measure, with the same small crew doing the sanding, the staining and the sealing.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Our own NWFA trained employees do the work in Barnstable, and the labor is covered for a year.

Floor Staining in Nearby Towns
Yarmouth, Dennis, Mashpee, Sandwich and Harwich get stain sample visits on the same schedule as Barnstable, usually within a day.
Yarmouth homeowners judge a few taped test colors on their own floor before deciding.
Dennis cottages favor honey brown, worked into fresh oak by hand.
Mashpee homes go for soft gray, which keeps an open room feeling calm.
Sandwich antiques pick dark walnut because of the warmth it brings to old oak.
Harwich homes get stain blended on site so an addition matches the original oak.
