Wood Floor Staining Options
Boxford oak is ready for a new color, whether it is in an antique near the First Church Area, a colonial off Lawrence Road or a house near Stiles Pond. We tape samples onto the sanded floor first, and only then does the Boxford hardwood floor staining crew work through the rooms.
Floor Staining
Every trace of old finish comes off under the sander, a fine screen buffer smooths what the sander left and the dust is vacuumed twice. Color is rubbed in by hand and the surplus wiped away.

Fine Grit Sanding First
Color exaggerates sanding scratches into dark streaks, so a buffer with fine screens runs over the floor after the sander and the vacuum runs after the buffer.

No Blotches or Lap Marks
The stain goes on in small sections, and each one is wiped back before the next begins, so there is never a lap line where two sections meet.

One Year Staining Warranty
The people staining a Boxford floor are Brazil Floors employees with NWFA training and insurance, and twelve months of labor warranty stand behind their work.

Floor Staining Throughout Boxford

/ STAIN COLORS WE APPLY MOST
Hardwood Floor Staining Services
Dark walnut and natural oak lead the Boxford favorites. Pick a shade you like and a sample goes right on the wood in your house.
Natural Look, No Stain
A Stiles Pond home keeps its oak pale and honest, with only a clear finish on the wood.
Gray and Driftwood Tones
Light gray works in a remodeled Boxford kitchen with white shaker cabinets.
Dark Walnut and Espresso
Espresso grounds a Lawrence Road colonial and makes the white trim stand out.
Custom Color Mixing
A Boxford Village family blended two cans and landed somewhere between honey and walnut.
Red Oak Toning
Red oak near Stiles Pond takes a toner that settles its pink undertone into warm brown.
Color Change on Old Floors
Orange floors in 1990s Boxford colonials are sanded off and turned dark walnut.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat will staining my floors cost in Boxford?
$2.00/Sq Ft. That includes trying colors on your own floor, applying the stain by hand and a protective clear coat over it. Sanding to bare wood with three poly coats is a separate service at $2.50/Sq Ft.
Can orange oak be turned brown?
Yes. Once the orange finish is sanded off, fresh oak accepts brown, walnut or dark walnut with none of that tint left.
What shades are popular in Boxford?
Walnut in a deep brown and plain natural oak are the top picks, followed by espresso, pale gray and custom blends.
Do you stain split entry stairs?
Yes. Corners and edges get worked by hand tools, and the staircase gets the same color so both floors of the house match.
How long does the stain need to dry?
Overnight for most colors. The clear coat only goes on once the stain has dried completely, which keeps the color from lifting or streaking.
Should we leave the house during the work?
Plenty of Boxford families stay put. A few prefer a night at a relative's while the coat cures, simply to skip the odor.
How quickly can you schedule the job?
Often the very next day after the estimate, with a single small crew handling prep, color and top coat start to finish.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Our payroll crew is NWFA certified, and the labor is guaranteed for one full year.

Sample visits also cover Topsfield and Georgetown, plus Middleton, Danvers and Wenham, often the next day.
Topsfield homeowners near the fairgrounds tape off several sample colors and weigh them before deciding.
Georgetown antiques often choose honey brown, worked by hand into the fresh oak, $2.00/Sq Ft.
Middleton homes lean to soft gray, which keeps an open room calm.
Danvers colonials choose dark walnut, a shade that warms up older oak floors.
Wenham homes get a tailgate blend that lets an addition match the original oak floor.
