Samples on Your Own Wood

Each sample is framed with blue tape on sanded oak so you compare shades side by side, by the window and in the shadows.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Sander scratches turn into dark streaks under stain, so a buffer with fine screens runs next and the vacuum picks up the rest.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Stain is wiped onto one workable patch and the excess lifted before moving on, so no lap lines appear between sections.

One Year Staining Warranty

Staining in Griswold is done by Brazil Floors employees, NWFA trained and insured, with a twelve month warranty on the labor.

/ LOCAL STAINING CREW

Floor Staining Throughout Griswold

We stain floors in Jewett City mill houses, Hopeville ranches, Glasgo farmhouses and homes near Ashland Pond and Route 164. Many went orange over the decades, so we sand to clean oak, tape off samples in your rooms and seal once the color dries.

Espresso anchors a Jewett City mill house and makes its white trim pop.

Custom Color Mixing

A Glasgo family mixed two cans and landed between honey and walnut.

What does floor staining cost in Griswold?

The staining service is $2.00/Sq Ft and includes test patches on your floor, color worked in by hand and a clear protective coat. Sanding bare plus stain plus three coats of poly is the $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing job.

Can I see the color before you do the whole floor?

Yes, two or three shades are taped off on your sanded oak. You pick in daylight before the crew moves ahead.

Can my orange Jewett City floor go gray?

Red oak takes gray after a sanding and a toner that cancels the pink. We test it on your boards first.

How long does staining take?

Sanding and staining a first floor takes about two days, then the top coat. Plan on three to four days total.

Does the stain smell?

Oil stain has an odor for a day. The water based top coat we use clears quickly, and the house airs out by the next morning.

Can you match an addition to my old farmhouse floor?

Yes, we blend stains on site and test them on scrap until the two floors read as one.

Do you move the furniture?

We move everything for a flat $250. Small items are yours to pack.

When is payment due?

Half when the sanding starts and half at the final coat. No deposit ahead of time.
