/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 was contracted to refinish the old, 1 1/2″ wide, solid Red Oak floors in a home in Orange Park, Florida.

The overall condition of the Oak wood flooring was good. These floors just hadn’t been refinished in nearly 20 year, so they deserved restoring.

Our crew began sanding with coarse, 36 grit sandpaper. And then we used finer, 80 grit sandpaper.

These photos show the old Red Oak flooring after being sanded in one room, and the Pallmann finish being applied in an adjacent room.

We finished these solid Red Oak floors with quality Pallmann hardwood coatings. First one coat of Pallmann Clear Sealer. Then two coats of Pallmann Power, ultra matte. We buffed the floors smooth, prior to applying the final coat.

Our clients told us that they loved how nice their old solid Red Oak floors look now! Dan’s Floor Store likes to have happy clients!

Repair, Sand, Finish Red Oak Floors – Lakeshore, Jacksonville, FL

/in , , , /by

A client called on Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to restore the old clear grade solid Red Oak floors in a home on the Westside of Jacksonville, Florida. We often find vintage Red Oak flooring in homes like this one, which was built in the 1950s.

We began with the repairs. Some of the subfloor had to be replaced. And some joists needed strengthening by adding 2″ by 4″ boards for support. The old Red Oak floor required several weave-in repairs. One area of the flooring required a 15 plank weave-in repair.

The rest of the original Red Oak flooring was in decent condition.

It took some vigorous sanding to remove the old, tough polyurethane finish.

Then we restored this Red Oak flooring to its original beauty with one coat of clear Pallmann sealer, followed by two coats of Pallmann gold semi gloss. We had restored the original beauty in light natural tones of these Red Oak floors with the waterborne Pallmann finish.

Needless to say, our client was thrilled with the outcome of our vintage solid Red Oak flooring restoration work. And Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

/in , /by

This Atlantic Beach homeowner wanted a beachy look to brighten this home, and contracted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to refinish and whiten his White Oak floors and stairway.

We began by sanding and hand scraping the edges of 2,600 square feet of solid White Oak hardwood flooring. The floors are a mixture of number one common and number two common. (Number 2 common has more color variations and knotting than number 1 White Oak hardwood flooring.) Our crew also sanded and hand scraped the 18 Oak stair treads in the home, to refinish them.

Our customer selected Bona White stain for his floors and stairway. We stained the White Oak floors and stairs after “popping” the wood grain with water to open them up for a deeper stain results.

Our crew began finishing these White Oak floors and stairs with two coats of Pallmann White Seal.

Then we applied a final coat of Pallmann Pure, to achieve the very low sheen floors and stairs that our client wanted.

Our client was thrilled to see how our crew had achieved the beachy look they wanted for their solid White Oak hardwood floors and stairs. Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Sand and Finish Oak Flooring in St. Augustine Beach

/in , , /by

View out the window - St. Augustine Beach.This job took place in St. Augustine Beach. The homeowners were moving here from Pittsburgh and Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 was able to squeeze this job into our busy schedule for some new Floridians.

Their floors are number 1 Red Oak with number 2 White Oak flooring planks peppered in here and there. We have also seen this mixture of Red and White Oak planks in flooring in some other homes built in the 1950s.

Our clients wanted a bare/naked wood look for their floors. Pallmann has a product that helped us achieve that look, so our clients asked us to refinish their Oak stair treads to match their Oak floors.

Here are some photos of the Oak floors and stairway, before our crew started work.

We sanded the old, oil modified polyurethane finish off, and hand scraped the edges of the Oak floors and stair treads.

Our crew coated these Oak floors and stair treads with Pallmann Natureseal and Pallmann Pure; companion sealer and finish for giving the bare/naked wood look to the flooring. The result it the look of a freshly sanded Oak floor, but the floor has 3 coats of protection.

This Pallmann finish combination is amazing – the dry look is so clear, more dull than an ultra matte, and it is in trend with the vibe of this St. Augustine Beach house!
