We specialize in everything under the sun concerning wood flooring. Sanding and refinishing, custom dual colors. Hand scraping done the right way with real floor scrapers, old school. Base boards, custom trim work, straight simple installations to personal custom layouts, & repairs on old busted up floors.
"Dave did an exceptional job with hand scraping my entire 2000 square foot home.(with the exception of a couple bathrooms) He is a TRUE ARTIST! We gave him some of the most difficult white oak wood to work with, with lots of short pieces, and he turned it into a masterpiece. All of our neighbors have been in awe when they walk in and see our beautiful hand scraped floors. I could not recommend Dave enough. He is kind, hard working, and is a top-tier expert in his craft. He has an eye for detail that most do not have. And after a lengthy home renovation, I can tell you it’s hard to find good people to get the job done. There are a lot of flaky people out there, but Dave is not one of them. I would absolutely work with Dave again! Thank you Dave for taking on our project, and helping us finally move home. We will be loving our floors for years, and decades to come.❤️"

Rental sanders can address moderate surface damage, but their effectiveness depends on scratch depth and overall floor condition. Drum sanders offer the most aggressive removal capability for deeper imperfections. However, if the damage extends into the wood structure or affects large portions of the floor, board replacement by an expert might be necessary before sanding. Consult a flooring professional for help.
Always thoroughly review the manufacturer's operating instructions before starting. Wear appropriate safety gear, including goggles to protect your eyes and a respirator to prevent inhalation of dust. Inspect electrical components before each use to prevent shock hazards. Keep children and pets away from the work area, and maintain a clean space by frequently vacuuming dust accumulation to prevent slipping and to ensure you can see well.
Sandpaper requirements depend on floor size, condition, and the sanding approach. Plan to use multiple grit levels (coarse, medium, and fine) with at least one to two sheets per 100 square feet for each grit. Floors with significant damage or multiple finish layers will require more coarse-grit sheets. Purchase extra supplies before beginning because running out mid-project can cause visible inconsistencies in the final result.
