Installation
A wide range of hardwood floor installation options fit for your personal style, home, and needs.
We have the tools, the skills, and the passion that will bring your floor back to life.
Life happens — to you and your floors. It’s not uncommon to have an existing beautiful hardwood floor that just needs a little bit of love.
Whether it’s scratches in the finish, leaky fridge, termites, loose boards, or wear-and-tear from pets, refinishing, recoating, and repairing your hardwood floor is inevitable at some point in your floor’s life. But don’t worry. We have the tools, the skills, and the passion that will bring your floor back to life.
Our screen and recoating service removes the top layer of your floor’s old, scratched finish and makes it new again. The process includes a dust-free abrasion technique using specialized sandpaper we call a screen. A light buff with the screen removes any scratches and imperfections in the floor’s finish. Lastly, we apply a fresh coat of water-based polyurethane finish, making the surface of your scratched, dull floor come to life. Our screen and recoating service is an economical way to bring the full beauty of your hardwood floors back into your Kansas City home.
Over years of wear-and-tear, your floor may suffer damage that requires sanding and refinishing your hardwood floors. Or, you may just want to mix it up and go for a lighter, or darker stain to compliment your home’s updated style. Our sanding and refinishing process uses the most advanced sanding equipment to make sanding your floor as dustless as possible. We complete multiple sanding passes on the entirety of your floor, creating the perfect canvas for staining and coating. Our sanding and refinishing service for Kansas City hardwood floors is a great way to bring a brand new look into your home.
If there are areas with extensive damage, don’t lose hope! We are equipped with the skills to replace and “lace in” new planks of wood that will seamlessly join with your existing floor. No repair is too big for an assessment, and more often than not, we can help bring your floor back to life — even if the issue runs all the way down to the joists.
Before the installation, all furniture will be cleared from the room(s), including the removal of appliances, depending on the room. We will also remove all the existing base shoe in the room.
The plywood that sits under your hardwood floor needs to be level and in tip-top shape, however, it often needs some TLC. We will reinforce “squeaks” by screwing down edges and leveling areas with a specific leveler or sanding if need be.
We use the most advanced sanding equipment to make sanding your floor as dustless as possible. Our state-of-the-art vacuum systems with air-tight hoses ensure that dust will not invade your home or air ducts. We complete multiple sanding passes on the entirety of your floor, creating the perfect canvas for staining and coating.
We have the ability to create custom stain combinations that are endless — allowing you to pick the perfect floor color to complement your space and test it before your final decision. Once stained, we will install the base shoe.
Lastly, we complete your floor with a three-coat finish from Loba. This water-based finished from Germany is 90 years in the making and guarantees the best protection for your floor. After the first two coats, we do a very light sand to avoid any last imperfections. After the third coat, you will be able to walk on your floor within hours! However, there are a few rules when it comes to rugs and furniture. We recommend waiting two days before moving furniture back onto the floor and seven days for area rugs.
