Real Project Work in Darien
Noroton Heights — pine out, wide white oak in
An 1,800 sq ft job removing the old 2¼" pine flooring and installing 5" white oak in its place. We finished the new floor and the existing stair treads together with Bona NordicSeal and two coats of Bona Traffic HD so the stairs and the new floor read as one. Dustless.
Long Neck Point — modernizing yellow-toned red oak
A 3,000 sq ft refinish of 3¼" red oak that had gone yellow with age. We refinished it in a modern Classic Gray stain with two coats of Bona Traffic HD for a cleaner, contemporary look. Dustless sanding throughout.
New hardwood installation (including narrow-strip removal and wide-plank replacement) · refinishing and tone correction · stair tread refinishing · LVP installation · dustless sanding up to 99% containment. We coordinate furniture moving so the project isn't waiting on a separate moving crew.
