Sometimes a change of scenery is about more than just a new home—it’s about finding a different pace of life.

After relocating from Yorkville in search of a quieter lifestyle, our customer wanted to make their new house truly feel like home. We had the privilege of bringing new life to these beautiful 2¼” red oak floors with a complete sand and refinish, finished with a natural look that showcases the wood’s character and timeless beauty.

There’s something special about restoring original hardwood floors. Every board tells a story, and now these floors are ready to be part of the next chapter.

Thank you for trusting us with your home and welcome to the neighborhood!

Always hoped we’d get an invite to Frank’s house, didn’t know we’d have to lay floor to get one😆.
Of course we are just playing around with our buddy Francis and now should have an open seat at the table for dinner to help him admire those beautiful floors. In all seriousness though, Frank’s better half Amy even fed us lunch!

If you’re looking for a similar transformation of your space feel free to reach out and schedule a quote(lunch not necessary but greatly appreciated 🤣)

11,521 nails pulled
117 years of history
3rd generation family home
Having the honor of installing the floor for the next century… priceless.

The greatest compliment we can receive is being invited back to a customer’s home to do additional work. After refinishing her steps, Linda asked us to come tackle the floors in this beautiful historic home.

After peeling back the carpet, we discovered floors that were a bit beyond a sand-and-finish job. So after a consultation discussing width and grade to fit the period and desired look our client was going for, we installed new 2 1/4” red oak and applied Special Walnut stain to blend seamlessly with the rest of the home.

And BAM 💥A floor that looks like it has always belonged there.

Projects like this are more than just flooring — they’re about preserving history, honoring craftsmanship, and helping another generation make memories in a home filled with stories.

Thank you, Linda, for trusting us with such a special piece of your family history.

There’s something special about bringing history back to life.

This staircase has been part of the same family home for over 100 years—and like many old homes, it had taken on years of wear, including paint splatter and time hidden under carpet. What was once overlooked is now a true focal point again.

After the carpet and staples were removed, we sanded and hand scraped everything down, and cleaned up all the old paint drips to reveal the original wood grain underneath. We finished it with Special Walnut stain, bringing out the warmth and character that had been buried for decades.

Projects like this aren’t just about refinishing wood—they’re about preserving stories and craftsmanship that deserve to be seen.

If you’ve got something hiding under carpet or years of wear, you might be surprised what’s waiting underneath.

We seriously appreciate repeat customers like this. It means everything to be welcomed back into your home and trusted again 💯

And don’t worry… no cows were harmed in the making of this production 🐄😂

From worn-out to wow. 👊

This platform in our showroom had seen better days—old linoleum tile, peeling layers, and zero character. So we tore it all out and rebuilt it the Correct way.

We installed solid hardwood using a mix of widths and species including maple and red oak, then finished it with a natural coat to let the true beauty of the wood speak for itself. The result? Clean, timeless, and full of life.

This is what we love to do—take something tired and turn it into something that makes a statement the moment you walk in.

Thinking about upgrading your space? Let’s make it happen.

From setback to stunning transformation. 🔥➡️✨

This home has quite a story. After a fire a few years ago, the homeowner took her time to thoughtfully redesign every detail and truly bring her vision to life and we were honored to be part of that journey.

We installed and finished 6” red oak, bringing it all together with a rich dark walnut stain that adds depth, warmth, and character to the space. The final result is a bold, timeless floor that perfectly complements the new design of the home.

Projects like this mean a lot to us, being part of a rebuild and helping turn a difficult chapter into something beautiful.

If you’re planning your own transformation, we’d love to help bring your vision to life.
