Samples on Your Own Wood

Several test patches are taped on freshly sanded oak, so you can see each color in morning sun and evening shade.

Fine Grit Sanding First

Fine screens remove sanding marks that stain would darken, and the vacuum then takes up every trace of dust.

No Blotches or Lap Marks

Stain goes on in manageable panels and the surplus is wiped before the next, which keeps lap marks out of the finished floor.

One Year Staining Warranty

Brazil Floors employees handle the staining, trained to NWFA standards and insured, and their labor is warranted for twelve months.

/ LOCAL STAINING CREW

Floor Staining Throughout Southbury

We stain floors in Main Street North saltboxes, Hurley Road colonials, Heritage Village condos and lake houses near Kettletown Road. Many floors turned yellow over time, so we sand to clean oak, tape off samples in your rooms and seal once the color dries.

Hardwood Floor Staining Services

Dark walnut and natural oak are requested most in Southbury. Pick any shade and a test patch of it goes on your floor.

Natural Look, No Stain

A Poverty Road ranch keeps its oak pale and true under a clear finish alone.

Gray and Driftwood Tones

A pale gray wash suits a remodeled colonial with white shaker cabinets.

Dark Walnut and Espresso

Espresso anchors a Hurley Road colonial and makes white trim stand out.

Custom Color Mixing

One South Britain family blended two cans and landed between honey and walnut.

Red Oak Toning

Red oak in an antique house takes a toner, and its pink cast mellows to warm brown.

Color Change on Old Floors

Orange floors in older Southbury homes are sanded back and deepened to mahogany.

Other Flooring Work in Southbury

What does staining cost in Southbury?

Staining in Southbury is $2.00/Sq Ft, with test patches on your own floor, hand applied color and a clear protective top coat included. Sanding, stain and three coats of poly together form the separate $2.50/Sq Ft refinishing service.

Can orange oak turn brown?

Yes. Once sanding clears the yellowed coating, bare oak takes brown, walnut or mahogany without the orange showing.

Which colors are most common?

Dark walnut and natural oak lead, then soft gray and custom blends.

Can the stairs match the floor?

Yes, treads are sanded and stained to match, and stair refinishing is $50 per step.

How long does stain take to dry?

Most stains are dry by morning. A touch test comes before the clear coat.

Should we leave during the work?

Most families stay, though a night away spares you the smell while the finish cures.

How soon can you start?

Color visits are usually the day after your call, and one crew sands, stains and seals. Labor is paid when the crew arrives.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, labor is warranted for twelve months and the finish maker stands behind the product.
