Samples on Your Own Wood

Painter's tape outlines each sample on bare oak, and you check them against one another by the window and again under the kitchen lights.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Sander scratches turn dark under stain, so a buffer with fine screens goes over the floor and a vacuum follows it.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Color is applied to a limited area and wiped before the next, so there are no overlap streaks in the dried floor.

One Year Staining Warranty

Your floor is stained by Brazil Floors employees, NWFA trained and insured, and the labor carries a twelve month warranty.

Floor Staining Across Plainfield

We stain floors in mill-village houses, capes, ranches and farmhouses throughout Plainfield. Oak that has yellowed over the years is sanded clean, sample squares are taped in your rooms and the chosen color is sealed once it dries.

/ STAIN COLORS WE APPLY MOST

Hardwood Floor Staining Services

Natural oak and dark walnut are the colors requested most. Name another shade and we lay out a sample of that too.

Natural Look, No Stain

A bright ranch looks best with natural oak and a clear coat, nothing darker.

Gray and Driftwood Tones

Light gray suits a remodeled kitchen with white cabinets and a butcher block island.

Dark Walnut and Espresso

A deep espresso tone makes cream trim stand out in a dining room.

Custom Color Mixing

Two stains blended in one bucket matched a new addition to the older rooms.

Red Oak Toning

Red oak takes a toner readily, and the pink in the grain relaxes toward brown.

Color Change on Old Floors

A faded orange floor in a living room is sanded back and turns a deep mahogany.

What Else We Do in Plainfield

No stain can go lighter without bare wood underneath, so sanding comes first. Beyond color, the crew lays hardwood, laminate and vinyl and builds stairs.

How much does floor staining cost in Plainfield?

It is $2.00/Sq Ft, including test colors on your own floor, hand-applied stain and a clear protective top coat. A firm quote follows a free visit.

Does staining replace a full refinish?

Not quite. Sand, stain and three coats together make the $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing service, and staining covers just the color and top coat.

Will I see colors on my own floor first?

Yes, sample squares are taped on your oak so you can judge them in your light.

Can a dark floor go lighter?

Only after sanding to bare wood, and how light it can go depends on the wood. The estimator tells you what is realistic.

How soon can we walk on it?

Socks the next day, furniture after about 48 hours, and more time on humid days.

Will aged oak take stain evenly?

Hand wiping in small sections keeps the color uniform, and blotchy areas get a conditioner or toner.

Can you stain the stairs to match?

Yes. Stair refinishing is $50 per step and the color is matched to the floors.

How do I pay?

The crew is paid when it arrives and material when it is delivered. For jobs with sanding, half is paid at the start and half at the final coat.
