White Oak Flooring and Treads installed – Penman Road

/in , , /by

Dan’s Floor Store 903.887.8303 was brought in to help one of our local building contractors. They subcontracted us to install some 7 1/2″ wide White Oak flooring in a new home on Penman Road at the Beaches of Jacksonville, Florida.

Our crew began by leveling the concrete slab subfloor with Bostik SL 175 Premium Self Leveling Underlayment. We sanded the edges of the sheet plywood second floor and stairway frame to level those areas.

Next, we installed the 7 1/2″ wide White Oak flooring by Palmetto Road on the first and second floor of the home, using Bostik Green Force adhesive. These White Oak planks featured a mineral streak, giving them a lot of variation between planks.

Our crew used tape to hold these wide engineered White Oak hardwood planks together while the adhesive set.

We installed the same White Oak planks (and matching nosing) on the stairway treads.

Our client told us he really liked how these White Oak floors and stair treads looked! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients.

New Oak stair treads installed and match stained bottom treads.

Match Stained Oak Stair Treads and Oak Hardwood Flooring Install – Palencia

/in , , , /by

A homeowner moving into this area contracted Dan’s Floor Store 903.887.8303 for her new home’s flooring and stair tread improvement project.

She chose 7 3/4″ wide Trubalance wood flooring in the Hula Hoop color by Mirage to be installed throughout her home, and wanted the wooden stair treads to match.

The Dan’s Floor Store crew leveled the subfloors, then installed the new White Oak flooring, and removed the old stair treads.

Then they checked the stair frame, to assure the support for each new stair tread would be level and solid.

The new, solid White Oak treads were wire brushed, and then stained with the Hula Hoop stain by Mirage (to match the new wood flooring). These stair treads were finished with three coats of durable polyurethane finish. And white risers were installed on the stairway. You can see how well the new stair treads match the color of the new hardwood flooring in the last photo in this batch.

The bottom two stair treads were irregularly sized Red Oak. Dan custom, match stained these Red Oak treads to match the Hula Hoop color of the new White Oak stair treads. This is not easy to do because the Red Oak and White Oak, being two different species, have different tones in the natural wood. A stain color can give different results on Red Oak versus White Oak.

Our client told us how much she enjoyed the bright, fresh look of her new hardwood floors and staircase! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

French Oak hardwood flooring, installed - staircase.

French Oak Hardwood Flooring and Stairs – Palencia

/in , /by

After one of our FREE consultations, these clients looked at our selection of engineered hardwood flooring at our showroom, and selected 7 1/2″ wide French White Oak engineered hardwood flooring by Chesapeake Flooring, color Catalyst. Then contracted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to install on the floors and stairway in their home.

Then the couple went out of the country, and entrusted our team to get the whole job done in 10 days:

  • moving their furniture out
  • leveling the subfloors
  • installing the hardwood flooring on the floors and staircase
  • moving their furniture back into their home.

After we removed the furniture from the project home, our crew leveled the concrete slab subfloor downstairs with quality Bostick self leveling underlayment. We leveled the sheet plywood floor upstairs by sanding the edges of the sheets. A level subfloor is important to a good hardwood flooring installation.

Here are some photos of the leveled downstairs concrete slab subfloor and prepared stair frame. Some of the photos show where we removed a little concrete around the brick features in the kitchen, so the Oak planks could extend under their edges.

This project home had some curved walls and walls set at a diagonal to the main (length and width) dimensions of the rooms. Not a problem for us because our crew practices “measure twice and cut once” workmanship. We installed the European Oak hardwood flooring using durable, dependable Bostik GreenForce Adhesive.

Our crew finished the Oak hardwood flooring installation on the stair frame with matching stair nosing.

In all, we installed approximately 2200 square feet of the 7 1/2″ wide French White Oak engineered hardwood flooring in this home.

And then our team moved the furniture back into our client’s home.

When they returned home, our clients told us that they loved how their new hardwood floors and staircase look. Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Hickory Flooring and Stairway Installed – Atlantic Beach

/in , /by

These Atlantic Beach clients contracted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to bring the warmth and charm of Hickory wood to the floors and stairway of their home.

They selected 5″ wide engineered, wire brushed Hickory Natural hardwood flooring by Mirage, with the DURAMATT finish.

The selection of this natural Hickory brings beautiful amounts of character and variance from plank to plank. These varied length planks encourage creativity in our installation crew, too!

(We also match stained Pine baseboards and shoe molding to the new Hickory flooring.)

For the stairway, we started by sanding the rough solid Hickory wood treads. Then our crew “popped the grain” of the wood treads with water, and wire brushed the treads to get the brushed effect seen on the Hickory flooring. We finished these solid Hickory stair treads with 3 coats of durable Pallmann finish.

These homeowners told us that they loved the look of their new Hickory floors and stairs! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Installing European Oak Flooring in 20 Mile

It’s great to have prior flooring clients recommend you to their friends and call you for a new flooring job.

We had just done a flooring job for these clients in a home in the Coastal Oaks community in Nocatee, Florida, six months ago. When they called us for this job, they had just purchased a new home in the 20 Mile community in Nocatee. They wanted to replace the carpeting on the upstairs floors and stairs in the new home with wood flooring.

Our crew began by removing approximately 1,800 square feet of carpeting from the floors and stairway of their new home.

We leveled the upstairs floors by sanding and hand scraping the edges of the sheet plywood subfloor.

Our clients chose 7 1/2″ wide engineered European Oak hardwood flooring by Sawgrass Hills. We installed the European Oak flooring on the floors and stairs using durable Bostik Greenforce adhesive. Our crew finished the hardwood flooring installation on the stair frame with matching stair nosing.

Needless to say, our clients told us they were super thrilled with their new European Oak floors and stairway! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 got the contract for a large flooring and stairway home improvement project for a home and Casita in the Ocean Walk community of Atlantic Beach, Florida. The project included installing 3 different tile designs, and new wood flooring and stair treads.

Our crew started by removing all of the existing wood and tile flooring. Then we leveled the subfloors.

Downstairs, we installed 3 different tile selections in various areas of this home and Casita using Fusion Pro Grout. Our crew used Tuscan TruSpace Seam Clips for the larger tiles.

– Ayers Rock Solar Summit 20” x 20” porcelain tile by Daltile.

– Lungarra Carrara 2” hexagonal tile by Daltile in one bathroom.

And we installed Alhambra Marengo tile by Casavitabella in the Casita.

We replaced the existing solid Oak stair treads with solid Sapele wood (African Mahogany) stair treads from Heritage Forest Products.  We finished these stair treads with durable Pallmann finish.

Upstairs, our crew installed a matching 5″ wide, engineered Sapele wood flooring by Mirage.

Engineered French Oak Plank Flooring Installed in Ponte Vedra Beach

/in , /by

A local new home builder contracted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to install hardwood flooring in a project home under construction in Ponte Vedra Beach, on Ponte Vedra Boulevard.

We began by doing a large amount of leveling on the concrete slab and plywood sheet subfloors. Our crew always levels the subfloor prior to installing hardwood flooring.

The flooring selected for this project was 8″ wide x 9/16″ thick, engineered French Oak plank flooring from the Charleston collection; Cottonfield by Palmetto Road.

We covered 4,000 sq.ft. of floor with this engineered French Oak hardwood. For this project, our crew used Bostik Green Force adhesive . The flooring straps we use for the wide plank installations can be seen in some of the photos.

A picture framed fireplace, and a change of direction down the hall, leading to the master suite, were two highlights of the main French Oak flooring installation work.

We also installed the French Oak planks and nosing for a staircase.

What we considered to be the showpiece of this flooring project is in the bourbon room, where our crew made a special herringbone design with the French Oak flooring. To create the herringbone pattern, we made additional cuts on each plank, to make the extra tongues and grooves needed for a solid wood floor.

Our clients and builder were thrilled with our work and the outcome. And Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients and builders.
