Samples on Your Own Wood

Every sample is boxed in with tape on the sanded oak so you judge shades side by side, near the window and in the dim corner.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Stain sinks into sanding scratches and darkens them, so a fine screen buffer follows the drum sander and the vacuum makes two passes.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Stain is wiped onto a manageable patch and the excess pulled before the next, so no lap marks show between sections.

One Year Staining Warranty

Franklin staining is done by Brazil Floors employees, NWFA trained and insured, and the labor carries a twelve month warranty.

Floor Staining Throughout Franklin

We stain floors in Franklin farmhouses, North Franklin capes and ranches, and colonials off Route 32 and Route 87. Many of these floors turned orange over the decades, so we sand to clean oak, tape samples in your rooms and seal once dry.

Hardwood Floor Staining Services

Dark walnut and natural oak lead in Franklin. Name any shade and we tape off a sample on your floor to judge it.

Natural Look, No Stain

A North Franklin ranch keeps its oak light and honest under a clear finish alone.

Gray and Driftwood Tones

Light gray fits a remodeled Franklin farmhouse kitchen with white shaker cabinets.

Dark Walnut and Espresso

Espresso grounds a Route 32 colonial and sets off its white trim.

Custom Color Mixing

A Franklin family chose a two can blend that landed between honey and walnut.

Red Oak Toning

Red oak in North Franklin gets a toner so its pink cast settles into warm brown.

Color Change on Old Floors

Orange floors in older Franklin farmhouses are sanded away and finished in dark walnut.

What does floor staining cost in Franklin?

Franklin staining runs $2.00/Sq Ft and covers the taped samples on your floor, the hand applied color and a clear protective coat. When the boards also need a complete sand and three coats of poly, the job becomes the $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing service.

Can orange oak in a Franklin farmhouse go brown?

Yes. After the sander removes the old orange finish, raw farmhouse oak accepts walnut, brown or gray cleanly.

Which stain colors are popular in Franklin?

Dark walnut tops the list in Franklin, natural oak is second, and espresso, light gray and custom blends follow.

Do you stain steep farmhouse stairs?

Yes. Edgers and scrapers reach where the big sander cannot, and the steps are colored to suit both floors.

How long does the stain need to dry?

Usually one night. The crew tests a corner before the clear coat goes on so the color stays put.

Do Franklin families usually stay home while the stain cures?

Most Franklin families stay put, while a few spend one night elsewhere to avoid the finish odor.

How fast can staining be scheduled in Franklin?

In Franklin it is typically the day after the measurement, with one crew handling the sanding, the stain and the seal coat.

Is the staining work guaranteed?

Yes. Franklin staining is done by insured, NWFA trained Brazil Floors staff and the labor is covered for a year.
