Before any room is stained, three or four candidates dry in a row on the sanded floor. Judge them in the bright kitchen at breakfast and once more by evening lamps.

Our crew buffs the floor with a fine screen between clear layers, then vacuums and tacks the dust, so the final pass goes on glass smooth over the color.
Our finishers rub color into the oak with lint free cloths, and leftover stain is lifted before it can puddle. Long runs from the foyer to the kitchen end up one even tone.
Stain labor carries our twelve month guarantee, plus the polyurethane brand warranty. Each finisher trained with the NWFA and is licensed and insured.



Color adds $2.00/Sq Ft to sanding, which runs $2.50/Sq Ft. For $250 we also carry out the dining set and couches before we start.
Yes, though its pink undertone fights back. A toner step comes first, then gray is tested on a spare section so you see the real result before the whole room.
