Samples on Your Own Wood

Three or four candidate colors go down on bare wood in one corner of the room. You get to see each floor stain color by daylight and lamplight before anything else.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Swirl marks from a sander show through stain like a spotlight, so our last pass uses fine grit, followed by two rounds of vacuuming before color goes on.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Stain gets applied with a pad, and any surplus is lifted away within minutes. That keeps the tone even from the middle of the room right up to the trim.

One Year Staining Warranty

Staining is done only by our own people, NWFA trained and fully licensed and insured. For one year afterward, the labor stays under our guarantee.

/ LOCAL STAINING CREW

Hardwood Staining Crew in Hancock

Houses below the Jiminy Peak trails and out on Route 43 often have big windows catching bright mountain light, and that light exposes uneven color. We sand finely, test samples right where sunshine falls and seal your chosen shade, often right after the weekend you phone.

/ STAIN COLORS WE APPLY MOST

Hardwood Floor Staining Services

Whether you lean toward pale natural or rich espresso, you choose, and we always test on your oak before an entire room gets colored.

Natural Look, No Stain

Some owners prefer oak exactly as nature made it, sealed clear with zero stain.

Gray and Driftwood Tones

Soft gray or driftwood looks clean against white trim in airy, open rooms with tall windows.

Dark Walnut and Espresso

Walnut or espresso spread evenly across a big family room, with crisp edges and no blotches.

Custom Color Mixing

Blending a pair of stains for one living room can produce a one off shade nobody else on the block has.

Red Oak Toning

Toning knocks back the pinkish cast red oak shows in rooms facing bright western hills.

Color Change on Old Floors

Older floors get sanded to raw wood again, then taken a few shades lighter or darker than before.

Floor staining prices, please?

Staining runs $2.00/Sq Ft. If your floor is due for sanding and refinishing anyway, that is $2.50/Sq Ft, and stain comes included in the refinishing price.

How do we choose between stain colors?

We brush three or four real shades onto a bare corner of your floor. Look at them over a morning and an evening, then pick whichever feels right.

Does red oak take stain like white oak?

Not quite. Red oak leans pink with open grain, and white oak goes cooler and more even. Testing on your own wood removes the guesswork.

Can a dark floor go lighter?

Yes, after sanding down to raw wood. Very dark old stain may take an extra sanding pass before every trace of color is gone.

What causes blotchy stain?

Two culprits: patchy sanding, or extra stain left to puddle on top. Fine grit sanding, a double vacuum and wiping surplus right away keep color uniform.

When can we walk on newly stained floors?

Color has to dry before we seal it, and then the sealer itself needs hours of its own. Your project manager gives you exact times for your house.

How is staining work paid?

Staining and refinishing are paid in two parts: 50% on the first day we work, 50% after that final clear layer is spread.

Who guarantees the stain job?

We do. Licensed and insured people from our own crew apply every stain, and their work carries a twelve month guarantee. If the color looks wrong, we return.
