Samples on Your Own Wood

Each candidate gets a taped square on sanded oak, so you compare shades side by side, near a window and in shade.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Sanding marks turn into dark streaks under stain, so fine screens and a second vacuum pass come before any color goes on.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Color is wiped over a small patch and the excess lifted before the next one begins, so lap marks never show between sections.

One Year Staining Warranty

In Simsbury, staining is done by Brazil Floors staff, NWFA trained and insured, and their labor is warrantied for twelve months.

/ LOCAL STAINING CREW

Floor Staining Throughout Simsbury

We stain floors in Hopmeadow Street houses, West Simsbury colonials, Tariffville cottages and homes near Talcott Mountain. A lot of that oak has turned orange with age, so it is sanded clean, samples are taped in view and the color is sealed once dry.

What does staining cost in Simsbury?

Staining is $2.00/Sq Ft, covering samples laid on your own boards, hand applied color and a clear protective top coat. Jobs needing the full sand and three poly coats are refinishing at $2.50/Sq Ft.

Can orange oak turn brown?

Yes. After the orange finish is sanded off, fresh oak takes brown, walnut or espresso cleanly.

Which shades do Simsbury owners pick?

Walnut and natural oak are the leaders, followed by soft gray and honey brown.

Do you stain historic stairs?

Yes. Hand scrapers and edgers reach where the machine cannot, and the color is matched to both floors.

How long should stain dry?

Most stains dry overnight. The surface is checked before the clear coat goes on.

Should we stay home during staining?

Plenty of households do, though some prefer to be out for the sanding and the first night.

How is staining paid for?

Sanding is paid half at the start and half after the last coat. Other labor is paid when the crew arrives.

Who does the staining?

Our payroll crew, NWFA certified and insured, with twelve months of labor warranty.
