Samples on Your Own Wood

Each sample is framed with blue tape on the sanded oak so colors sit side by side, one in the window light and one in the shade.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Sanding scratches turn into dark streaks under stain, so a buffer with fine screens follows the sander and the vacuum picks up the rest.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Stain is wiped onto a workable section and the excess pulled before the next, so no lap lines show between areas.

One Year Staining Warranty

Staining in Lisbon is done by Brazil Floors employees, NWFA trained and insured, and their labor carries a twelve month warranty.

/ LOCAL STAINING CREW

Floor Staining Throughout Lisbon

We stain floors in Lisbon farmhouses, capes toward Preston, raised ranches near the Norwich line and colonials out by Sprague. Most of that oak has drifted orange with age, so it gets sanded back to clean wood, samples are taped off where you can see them and the color is sealed once dry.

Hardwood Floor Staining Services

Dark walnut and natural oak are the favorites around Lisbon. Whatever shade you have in mind, a taped sample on your own boards settles the question before any decision is made.

Natural Look, No Stain

A Lisbon ranch keeps its oak light and honest with nothing but a clear finish.

Gray and Driftwood Tones

Light gray suits a remodeled Lisbon split level with white shaker cabinets.

Dark Walnut and Espresso

Espresso anchors a Lisbon colonial and makes the bright white trim pop.

Custom Color Mixing

A Lisbon family blended two cans and landed between honey and walnut.

Red Oak Toning

Red oak in a Lisbon farmhouse gets a toner so its pink undertone settles into warm brown.

Color Change on Old Floors

Orange floors in older Lisbon capes are sanded off and turned to dark walnut.

What does floor staining cost in Lisbon?

Staining is $2.00/Sq Ft, with stain samples on your own floor, hand applied color and a clear top coat. A full sand with stain and three coats is the $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing service.

Can orange oak go brown?

Yes. Once the old finish is sanded off, a cool brown stain cancels the orange in red oak.

How many sample colors can I see?

Three or four taped off on your sanded floor is typical. More is fine if you are undecided.

Does gray work on red oak in a Lisbon farmhouse?

It can, with a toner first to neutralize the pink. We show you a sample before committing.

How long before we can walk on it?

Socks after 24 hours and furniture after 48. Rugs wait about two weeks.

Can you match an addition to the original floor?

Yes, we blend stains on site and test on scrap until the two areas read the same.

Who does the staining?

Our own NWFA trained, insured employees. Nothing in Lisbon is subcontracted.

How do I pay for staining?

Fifty percent on the first morning and the balance when the last coat goes on. Labor carries a one year warranty.
