Domestic Hickory Hardwood Flooring Installation in Kensington

/in /by

Dan's Floor Store showroom, Ponte Vedra, FloridaWe have a large selection of wood flooring and tile samples available in our Dan’s Floor Store showroom, 145 Hilden Road, Suite 104 in Ponte Vedra, Florida.

Not long ago, some walk-in customers to our showroom, were looking for some wood flooring to replace the carpeting in their home, which is located in the Kensington subdivision in St. Augustine.

After 3 to 4 years, most standard, commercial grade carpeting starts to deteriorate and becomes harder to clean. If anyone in the carpeted home or business office has allergies, worn carpeting tends to trap more pollen and other allergens, causing problems year around.

Engineered domestic Hickory hardwood flooring - HearthstoneThe clients selected some engineered, made in America, domestic Hickory hardwood flooring; “Hearthsone” from the Montecello Collection by Max Woods Floors.

  • This wood flooring comes in 7 1/2 inches wide by by 1/2 inch thick planks.
  • Their selection is a very hot color, it has a slight wire brush to it and a satin finish.
  • The selected wood flooring is prefinished, with boards up to 8 feet long.

Because of the width of these wood floor planks, we used special flooring straps to hold the domestic Hickory hardwood flooring planks together during installation.

This wood flooring installation project took us six days in total. Our clients are very happy with their new wood floors, and we are really happy too, because we like to satisfy the customer!

Oak Hardwood Flooring Installation in St. Augustine

/in /by

Jacksonville, Ponte Vedra, St. Augustine; we live so near the Atlantic Ocean, we often get requests for ideas to give a home or office a beachy look with new wood flooring.

Dan’s Floor Store delivers!

Oak hardwood flooring installed (detail)This client selected 9/16″ thick by 4 3/4″ wide engineered Oak Hardwood flooring in the matted style of the Urban Floor Columbus collection for their condo in the Villages of Vilano in St. Augustine. This Oak wood flooring look is redefining the relaxed, beachy look with taupy gray colors.

First we cleaned and leveled the subfloor. You can see that there was a lot of leveling for this wood floor installation. Leveling the subfloor is important to protect the wood flooring from flexing damage after installation.

Then we installed the new Oak wood flooring, using Bostik Vapor-Lock adhesive, which provides moisture control and sound reduction qualities in addition to holding the wood flooring planks in place. We selected the Bostik Vapor Lock adhesive for this wood floor installation because sound reduction is a good quality to add in a condo.

Our client was excited and happy when they saw how nice this new Oak wood floor looked. And Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients.

/in , /by

During one of our free consultations about wood flooring for a home in Ponte Vedra Beach, the homeowners shared that they really liked White Oak flooring with a deep, natural tone.

We can do that! We found them some beautiful 5/8″thick x 4″ wide, unfinished engineered White Oak Premium grade wood flooring, made by Shamrock Plank Flooring.

First we leveled the subfloor.

We installed the unfinished engineered White Oak Premium grade wood flooring with Bostik Greenforce adhesive. We used wood flooring straps to hold the wood planks together during installation.

Dan’s Floor Store also installed matching solid White Oak Select stair treads. This photo shows the stairway prior to our installation of the new treads.

We sanded the new White Oak Premium grade wood flooring and stair treads.

The new White Oak wood flooring and stair treads were finished in natural, Bona waterborne finish:

  • First coat of Bona IntenseSeal for a vibrant look and deep, natural tone
  • Final two coats of Bona Traffic Satin;  a 100% polyurethane, premium finish for durability and beauty

Our clients said their new wood flooring and stair treads look great, and we always like to have happy clients.

Coastal Look European White Oak Wood Flooring Installation in PVB

/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store was contacted by a homeowner in Turtle Shores, in south Ponte Vedra Beach, for one of our free flooring consultations and estimates.

The carpeting on her floor was installed in the 1980s, so it was ready for replacement. Most standard, contractor grade carpeting that is installed in new construction homes is only designed to last for 3 or 4 years before it begins to deteriorate and becomes harder to clean. She also wanted the tile flooring in her foyer replaced with wood flooring. We would install the new wood flooring on 900 square foot of her home.

European White Oak wood flooring installedOur client wanted new wood flooring to give her home a beachy look. She selected 1/2″thick by 7 1/4″ wide LM flooring engineered European White Oak wood flooring from the Saint Laurent collection with the Privas finish – a whitish grayish color stain for a very coastal and beachy look.

This project began with removing the client’s furniture from the selected areas of her home.

We removed the old carpeting and tile, then we prepared and leveled the plywood subfloor.

Then we installed new coastal look European White Oak wood flooring.

The client loved the coastal look we achieved with her new European White Oak wood flooring. And we are always happy when our clients are pleased with our work.

White Stained White Oak Floors in Plantation Country Club PVB

/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store works hard on each flooring project to provide results that make our clients happy. And we appreciate when our happy clients recommend us to their friends and family, and when they call us back to do a new wood, tile or stone flooring project in their home, office, or commercial property.

Last year we installed engineered white stained White Oak wood flooring in several rooms of this client’s home in the Plantation Country Club community in Ponte Vedra Beach to achieve a beach house look.

Our clients liked the beachy look of that flooring so much they called us to help renovate some more rooms in their home, removing some existing tile flooring and replacing the tile with new wood flooring.

Engineered white stained White Oak wood flooring for a beach house lookThis year our clients asked that we extend the beach house look flooring through their home, with 7 1/2″ wide, wire brushed, engineered European White Oak wood flooring with white stain in the grain from the LW Flooring Emilia collection.

First we removed the existing tile from the floors to be covered with White Oak wood flooring.

This video clip shows how a floor tile removal machine makes it faster and easier to remove existing floor tiles with minimal damage to the subfloor surface.

Next we leveled the concrete subfloor. Dan’s Floor Store has made it a practice of leveling subfloors prior to all wood floor installations to help make the client’s new wood flooring last longer. Uneven subfloors can cause damage to new wood flooring, so we make sure we start installing the new wood floor on a level surface.

We use special flooring straps to hold these white stained White Oak wood planks together during installation, due to the width of the planks.

The engineered white stained White Oak wood flooring that we installed gives the floors a nice beachy look that the clients like and we do, too.

Our clients enjoy sitting out in the back yard of their home, relaxing with the pleasant view of the peaceful waters of the pond.

If you are thinking about new wood floors (whether solid wood, engineered wood, or laminate), or refinishing the wood flooring you have, give Dan’s Floor Store a call 904.887.8303 to make an appointment for a free consultation and estimate.

Hickory Hardwood Flooring Installation – Plantation Oaks in Ponte Vedra Beach

/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store works to make every wood flooring installation a good experience. Clients that are pleased with our work often recommend us to friends and family.

Engineered wide plank Hickory flooring installedThis wood flooring project was the result of a recommendation from one of the local real estate agents who often recommends Dan’s Floor Store to their clients who want to improve the home that they are considering with wood or tile floors, or professionally refinishing the old, existing wood flooring.

The couple wanted 1350 square feet of existing wood and tile flooring in the home removed, and new wood flooring installed. We can do that!

The couple picked 1/2″ by 7 1/2″ wide planks of engineered Hickory hardwood flooring, in a style called Monticello Hearthsone, by Max Woods.

We stacked the boxes of flooring planks to the side of the work area, and set up a temporary work shop on the back patio of the home. Special flooring straps are used to hold these wood planks together during installation, due to the width of the planks.

The installed Hickory hardwood flooring look excellent and the homeowners were very happy.

Hand Scraped Birch Wood Flooring Installation – Odom’s Mill

/in /by

Our Dan’s Floor Store crew works hard to do a good job on our residential and commercial flooring projects for each of our clients. Whether we are installing a new wood floor, repairing or refinishing a wood floor, or installing tile or stone, we work with our clients to make the project a good experience for them. It just makes good sense to treat others the way you want to be treated.

And we are thankful that many times our clients show their appreciation for our work on their flooring project by calling Dan’s Floor Store when they have another wood or tile flooring project. Many prior clients also recommend us to their friends and families.

A year or so ago, a couple who own a charming home in the Odom’s Mill community of Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida contracted us to install wood flooring in rooms covering about 1250 square feet of their home. They said they really loved their new wood floors.

Recently they called on us to install some pre-finished, hand scraped Birch wood flooring that they had purchased to match their existing wood floors. This new project covered the floors in two more bedrooms of their charming home, and further increases the value of their home.

Dan’s Floor Store sells a wide variety of name brand wood flooring and tile, samples of which are on display in our Ponte Vedra Showroom. And, just like on this project, we will also install wood flooring that a client has purchased on their own.

When this project started, both bedroom floors were covered with carpet. We removed the carpet and leveled the concrete subfloor, so the wooden flooring would not be damaged by unevenness in the concrete surface.

You can see in these photos how the hand scraped Birch wood flooring that our clients picked looks great and matched beautifully with their existing wood flooring that we had previously installed.

Everyone was pleased with how good the newly installed wood flooring looks.

Wood Floor Weave-in and Install at the King and Bear

/in , /by

Installed - new engineered hand scraped birch wood flooringThis Dan’s Floor Store wood floor weave-in and install project took place in a home at the King and Bear community – part of the World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Florida.

The client wanted to replace the tile floors in the hallways, kitchen, and dining room with wood flooring.

And they wanted the new wood flooring to appear as a continuation of the existing wood flooring that had been previously installed in their home.

First the tile and thinset used to adhere the tiles to the concrete subfloor had to be removed, and the entire area to be covered in wood flooring had be be leveled.

To match the existing wood flooring, we found a beautiful engineered hand scraped Birch wood flooring, 5″ x 3/8″ planks from the Rucsello collection by Bella Cera.

To blend the new wood flooring in with the existing wood flooring, we wove in ten boards, and went on to extend the new wood flooring throughout all the hallways, in the kitchen, and in the dining room of the home.

The weave-in and installation turned out beautifully, and our client was very pleased. In all, we installed 600 square feet of wood flooring.

Pegged Look White Oak Floor Install and Weave-in Deerwood Country Club

/in , , /by

A previous client had us come install a custom weave-in to an area of their solid Finished pegged look white oak flooringwhite oak floor, and then refinish some additional wood flooring, in their charming home in the Deerwood Country Club community of Jacksonville, Florida.

This project involved not only installing new Solid White Oak plank select flooring from Shamrock Plank Flooring in random width planks (3″, 6″, and 8″ wide), but also weaving the new wood flooring into some existing flooring which was also 3 “, 6″, and 8” random widths.

The new White Oak flooring planks being installed would be enhanced with a pegged look as though they were held down with dark Walnut pegs. (The pegged look wood floor effect is achieved by pre-drilling holes near the ends of each plank, prior to their installation and then inserting walnut plugs (to simulate pegs) after the planks are installed.)

We glued and nailed the new wood flooring installation.

Dan’s Floor Store also sanded the newly installed wood floor along with all of the other existing wood flooring on first floor the home for a total of 2700 ft.² of flooring. (This refinishing did not include the wood flooring that we had installed on the second floor of this home in March.) And as we worked, a rainbow came our to brighten our day.

Dan’s Floor Store finished the new wood flooring with Bona flooring products:

  • Bona DriFast Oil-Based Sealer
  • Two coats of Bona Traffic Waterborne satin finish

Costa Rican Teak Floor Install Pablo Pointe

/in /by

Close-up of Costa Rican Teak wood flooringAlthough Dan’s Floor Store sells a variety of wood flooring, we also can install wood flooring that our client provides.

For this project, we installed some Costa Rican Teak hardwood flooring which these repeat clients had saved from a wood flooring project we had done years ago in their home off San Pablo Rd. in Pablo Pointe subdivision. We have made many Costa Rican Teak hardwood flooring installations over the years. Now the clients wanted this same, stunning wood flooring installed in two bedrooms for their children.

Here’s some photos of one of the carpeted bedrooms (before the old carpeting was removed), the concrete subfloor being prepared, and the Costa Rican Teak hardwood flooring being installed in one of the bedrooms. This wood flooring installation project was completed in two days; a very nice install.

Costa Rican Teak hardwood flooring is very beautiful; stunningly wild and natural looking.

Our customers are exceedingly happy with their new flooring installation.
