Samples on Your Own Wood

/ Floor Staining IN BECKET
Wood Floor Staining Options
Oak in the cabins under Walling Mountain, pine in the camps on the Westfield River and the wide boards of Becket Center colonials all take a new color well once they are sanded. Our Becket staining crew brushes out test patches on your own floor first and then colors each room by hand.
Floor Staining
Every trace of the old finish comes off with the sander, the buffer smooths what the drum left and the dust is vacuumed out twice. Then the installer works the stain into the wood with a rag and wipes off whatever has not soaked in.

Fine Grit Sanding First
Any scratch left by the drum sander shows up as a dark line once color hits it, so we buff the floor with fine screens and vacuum it twice before a drop of stain is opened.

No Blotches or Lap Marks
The stain goes on one small area at a time, and the surplus is wiped before the installer moves to the next, which is how lap lines are avoided.

/ LOCAL STAINING CREW
Floor Staining Throughout Becket
Floor staining takes us to Becket Center colonials, cabins by Jacob's Pillow, Westfield River camps and houses on Walnut Hill. Decades of sun have turned many of these floors orange, so we sand down to clean wood, brush out test squares in each room and lock in the winner with a clear coat after it dries.
/ STAIN COLORS WE APPLY MOST
Hardwood Floor Staining Services
Up in the hills, dark walnut and natural are the two colors asked for most. Name any shade you like and we put a taped off sample right on your floor.
Natural Look, No Stain
A camp by Yokum Pond stays bright with nothing but a clear coat over the pale oak.
Gray and Driftwood Tones
Light gray suits a remodeled ranch along Route 8 with white shaker cabinets.
Dark Walnut and Espresso
Espresso grounds a Becket Center colonial and sets off its white trim.
Custom Color Mixing
One Becket family had us mix two stains to land somewhere between honey and walnut.
Red Oak Toning
Red oak around Berkshire County gets a toner so its pink cast settles into an even warm brown.
Color Change on Old Floors
Orange floors in older cabins near Jacob's Pillow are sanded off and turned dark walnut.

Other Flooring Jobs Across Becket
A real change of shade, lighter or darker, starts with sanding to raw wood, and the same installers also put in new hardwood, laminate, vinyl plank and stair treads around Becket.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does floor staining cost in Becket?
Floor staining in Becket is $2.00/Sq Ft, and that covers test colors on your own boards, stain rubbed in by hand and a clear coat over the top to protect it. When the floor also needs a complete sanding and three coats of finish, that is the refinishing service at $2.50/Sq Ft.
Can orange oak be turned brown?
Yes. That orange is in the aged finish rather than the oak itself, and once it is sanded away a brown, walnut or espresso stain takes evenly.
What shades are popular in the hills?
Dark walnut and natural lead in Becket, with espresso, pale gray and custom mixes behind them.
Do you stain loft stairs?
Yes. The steps are sanded with edgers and hand scrapers where the big machine cannot go, then stained to connect the two floors.
How long should the stain dry?
Overnight for most colors. Before sealing, the installer rubs a rag across the floor to confirm the stain has cured and will not bleed into the clear coat.
Should we leave the house?
Plenty of families stay home during the work. Some choose to sleep elsewhere on the night the finish cures, mostly to avoid the smell, and that is up to you.
How quickly can you schedule?
Usually within a few days of measuring, and the same two or three installers handle the sanding, the color and the seal coat.
Is there a guarantee?
There is a one year warranty on the workmanship, which covers lap marks, blotching or a top coat that fails to bond. The installers are our own NWFA trained employees, not a subcontracted crew.

Floor Staining in Nearby Towns
Sample appointments also cover Washington and Middlefield, plus Chester, Peru and Hinsdale, often within days.
In Washington we mark out a few test colors on the sanded floor before committing, all part of the $2.00/Sq Ft rate.
Honey brown rubbed into freshly sanded oak is the usual pick in Middlefield farmhouses.
In Chester the pick is often a muted gray that calms a large open room.
Peru houses go for dark walnut, which gives older oak floors some warmth.
At Hinsdale lake houses we mix a custom blend on site so an addition matches the original boards.
