Wood Floor Staining Options
Colonials on the Green, cottages on Columbia Lake and capes in North Society all have oak waiting for a new color. Taped-off samples go down first, then our Columbia hardwood floor staining crew finishes each room.

We sand the old finish off completely, buff the oak with fine screens and vacuum twice. The color goes on by hand and the surplus is wiped off.

Fine Grit Sanding First
Leftover sanding marks turn dark under stain, so a buffer with fine screens follows the drum sander and the vacuum picks up what remains.

No Blotches or Lap Marks
Stain is wiped onto one section at a time and the excess pulled before the next, so no lap lines show across a Columbia living room.

One Year Staining Warranty
Columbia staining is done by Brazil Floors payroll staff, NWFA trained and insured, with the labor warrantied for twelve months.
/ LOCAL STAINING CREW
Floor Staining Throughout Columbia
We stain floors in Columbia colonials on the Green, cottages on Columbia Lake, capes in North Society and ranches off Route 66. Many of these floors have yellowed with age, so we sand to clean oak, tape samples in your rooms and seal after the stain dries.
/ STAIN COLORS WE APPLY MOST
Hardwood Floor Staining Services
Dark walnut and natural oak lead the requests around Columbia. Any color you name gets taped off as a sample on your own floor before we commit.
Natural Look, No Stain
A Columbia Lake cottage keeps its oak light and natural with only a clear coat on top.
Gray and Driftwood Tones
Light gray suits a remodeled North Society ranch with white shaker cabinets.
Dark Walnut and Espresso
Espresso anchors a colonial on the Green and makes the white trim pop.
Custom Color Mixing
A family off Route 6 chose a two-can blend that landed between honey and walnut.
Red Oak Toning
Red oak by Columbia Lake gets a toner, and its pink cast settles into warm brown.
Color Change on Old Floors
Orange floors in older homes near the Green are sanded off and turned dark walnut.

Other Flooring Jobs Across Columbia
Changing color means sanding to bare wood, and the same Columbia crew also installs hardwood, laminate, vinyl plank and new staircases.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does staining my floors cost in Columbia?
Staining in Columbia is $2.00/Sq Ft, with stain samples on your own floor, hand applied color and a clear protective top coat in that rate. A full sand, stain and three coats of poly is the separate $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing service.
Can orange oak in a colonial be turned brown?
Yes. After the orange finish is sanded off, the bare oak accepts brown, walnut or espresso without blotching.
Which colors do Columbia homeowners pick most?
Dark walnut and natural oak are the favorites in Columbia, followed by espresso, light gray and custom blends. A few taped samples usually decide it.
Do you stain colonial stairs too?
Yes. Edgers and hand scrapers get into the corners the big machine misses, and the steps take the same color as the hall.
How long does the stain need to dry?
Most stains dry overnight. Before the clear coat goes on, the crew confirms the stain is dry so the finish stays uniform.
Should we leave the house during the work?
Most Columbia families stay home, though some spend one night out while the finish cures because of the smell. Water-based poly airs out quickest.
How soon can staining be scheduled?
Usually the day after measuring. One small crew does the sanding, staining and sealing from the first day to the last.
Is the staining guaranteed?
Yes. The staining crew is NWFA trained and on the Brazil Floors payroll, and the labor is warrantied for twelve months.

Hebron homes often pick honey brown, hand rubbed into fresh oak at $2.00/Sq Ft.
Andover homes lean toward soft gray, which calms open rooms.
Coventry lake houses choose dark walnut, which warms up older oak floors.
Windham homes get a blend mixed on site, tying an addition to the old oak.
