/ Floor Staining IN PRESTON
Wood Floor Staining Options
Farmhouses on Old Shetucket Road, Poquetanuck cottages and Hallville capes all hide oak ready for new color. We tape off samples first, then our Preston staining crew finishes the room.
Floor Staining
The old finish comes off, a fine-screen buffer levels the oak and the vacuum makes two passes. Then the stain is rubbed in by hand and wiped back before it sets.

Fine Grit Sanding First
Sander marks turn dark under stain, which is why fine-screen buffing and vacuuming come before any color.

No Blotches or Lap Marks
We stain one patch at a time and lift the excess immediately, so no lap lines mark the joins between sections of the Preston floor.

Preston staining is done by Brazil Floors staff, NWFA trained and insured, with the labor warrantied for twelve months.

We stain floors in Old Shetucket Road farmhouses, Poquetanuck cottages, Hallville capes and ranches along Route 2A. Many of these floors have turned orange, so each goes back to bare oak, color samples are laid in your rooms, and the seal goes on after the stain dries.

Get your Free In-Home EstimateWhat does floor staining cost in Preston?
Staining in Preston is $2.00/Sq Ft, covering stain samples on your own floor, hand applied color and a clear protective top coat. The free visit fixes your exact quote.
Can orange oak go brown?
Yes. With the orange finish sanded off, bare oak takes brown, walnut or mahogany cleanly.
Which colors do Preston homeowners ask for?
Preston requests run to dark walnut and natural oak first, then espresso, light gray and custom blends.
Do you stain stairs too?
Yes. Hand tools get into the tight corners, and the steps are colored to match both floors.
How long does stain take to dry?
Stain usually dries overnight, and a touch test comes before the clear coat goes down.
Do I need to leave during staining?
Many families stay home. Others book a night away while the finish cures, mostly to skip the smell.
How quickly can you schedule it?
Normally the day after we measure, with one small team handling sanding, stain and seal.
Is the staining guaranteed?
Yes. NWFA trained staff on our own payroll do the work and the labor is warrantied for twelve months.
