LVP Installed on Floors and Stairway in Marsh Landing

/in , /by

Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 was contracted to install LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) on several floors and some stairways in a home in Marsh Landing community.

Our clients picked an LW Riverstone LVP for their floors and matching treads, with white risers. Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring is made from PVC vinyl and fiberglass, and mimics the look of hardwood or stone. We have found Luxury Vinyl Plank to be a popular choice by our customers, because it is a cost effective flooring option, it is durable in active households, and it is waterproof and spill resistant.

We began by removing old carpeting from steps and upstairs floors and VCT (Vinyl Composite Tile) tiles from another room. In main flooring areas, we installed underlayment for a smoother, level surface. (Underlayment also provides a moisture barrier, protecting against mold and mildew.)

– Preparation.

Then our crew installed the LW LVP on floors and stairs. And finished the job with nice shoe molding.

– Luxury Vinyl Plank Installed.

When they saw our completed work, our clients told us that they were thrilled with the outcome! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy customers!

8 wide Sweetgrass Hardwood Install in Ponte Vedra

/in /by

One of our home builder associates called on Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to install some hardwood flooring in one of their new homes.

They selected 8″ wide French Oak hardwood flooring from the Charleston Veranda collection, color Sweetgrass, by Palmetto Road for this new house.

We like to start any flooring installation project with a leveled subfloor. A leveled slab subfloor helps our crew to achieve a quality flooring installation.

Installing the engineered 8″ wide French Oak hardwood flooring, we used Bostik GreenForce adhesive. In some photos you can see the blue tape we use to hold the hardwood planks in place, while the adhesive sets up.

A peek at the landscape and waterway outside the home.

To add interest to this beautiful flooring in different rooms, we made flooring direction changes. You can also see where our crew brought flooring up flush to stone and travertine covered areas, with no thresholds.

Our home builder client was very pleased with the eye-catching ways we had installed the French Oak hardwood flooring in the new house! Dan’s Floor store always likes to have happy clients.

/in , , , , /by

Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 was contracted by a realtor, whom we were referred to by another realtor, to improve flooring and tile in a recently sold house. This house is in the Long Point Country Club neighborhood, on Amelia Island.

Our work would entail adding Red Oak flooring to a staircase, a storage room, and another staircase, along with sanding and refinishing 3,800 square feet of Red Oak flooring, and another staircase.

The specie sanded was Red Oak rift and quarter sawn, throughout the main part of the house. Our crew installed select grade 2 1/4″ Maxwell unfinished engineered Red Oak, to be congruent with existing Red Oak floor in one of the upstairs bedrooms.

Refinished Red Oak flooring and new stair treads.

The stain formula we used for refinished Red Oak flooring was 1 part Bona Antique Brown with 2 parts Bona Natural stain. It created a lovely color, which was exactly what our customer wanted.

Our crew also removed and retiled a bathroom tub and shower surround with Datile Divinium Nova DV06 color glossy 6×18 rectangles for the herringbone pattern on walls/tub surround tile, and marble Datile honed Calacatta Gold M475 hexagon floor tile.

2 1/4" engineered Red Oak flooring.

Install 2 1/4 wide Red Oak Engineered flooring – Glen Kernan CC

/in , , /by

Some of our Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 flooring projects involve installing new wood flooring to match existing wood flooring in a home. Such was the case in a recent project for a home in Glenn Kernan Golf and Country Club. For this project, the new, engineered wood flooring would be installed flush with the existing, solid wood flooring.

We began the project by leveling the concrete slab subfloor with Bostik‘s SL 175. Based on our experience, we believe a quality flooring installation starts with a leveled subfloor.

Our crew installed 2 1/4” wide x 5/8” thick Red Oak engineered wood flooring by Maxwell,to line up with and continue the flooring plank lines of the existing 2 1/4” solid Red Oak wood flooring, across the header boards at doorways. We made directional changes going into the master bedroom leading to master bathroom. And then our crew did re-directional changes of the Red Oak wood flooring planks in master bedroom closets as well. We glued down the new wood with Bostik‘s Green Force adhesive. Blue tape, used to hold the flooring in place until the adhesive sets, can be seen in some of the photos. The flooring patterns looked very nice!

We sanded all the floors, the stairway treads, rails and newel posts for a sanded wood or untreated look, treating the bare wood with Pallmann Nature Seal followed by Pallmann Pure finish.

The homeowners told us that they loved the look of their Red Oak floors, and refinished stairway! Dan’s Floor Store is always happy to have satisfied customers.

Installing 7 1/2 wide European Oak flooring in Fernandina Beach

/in /by

One of our home building contractor associates subcontracted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to install hardwood flooring in a home they were building in Fernandina Beach, on Amelia Island. A 7 1/2″ wide wire-brushed European Oak hardwood flooring by Reward flooring was selected for this project.

Our crew starts each installation project by leveling the subfloor. A leveled subfloor is important for a quality flooring installation. And while leveling, we took a peek out one of the back windows of the home.

After the subfloors were leveled, we began installation of the European Oak hardwood flooring. The flooring was installed in two different directions, giving the floors a more interesting appearance. Blue tape, used to hold the flooring in place until the adhesive sets, can be seen in some of the photos.

This contractor client told us he really liked the looks of this Oak flooring installation. Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Installed White Oak flooring.

Tile and White Oak Flooring Install – Springfield

/in , /by

Our Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 was selected for a wood flooring and tile flooring improvement project in the Springfield neighborhood of Jacksonville, Florida.

– A view of the neighborhood.

We began by roughing up the stained concrete slab floor with a floor grinder. Then our crew leveled the concrete slab (which we would use as the subfloor for our Oak hardwood flooring and our tile installations). A level subfloor is very important to achieving a quality flooring installation.

– Concrete slab preparation.

Subsequently we began flooring installation. For this job, it was 5″ wide engineered White Oak hardwood flooring for most of the house, with 17″ x 17″ tile in the kitchen, and 8″ x 8″ decorative tile in the bathroom.

– Installation.

Our client told us they were particularly happy with our craftsmanship and their new flooring. Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Wire brushed White Oak flooring after refinishing.

Sand and Finish White Oak Floors in TPC Sawgrass

/in , /by

Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 was contracted by new owners to sand and refinish a wire brushed White Oak floor in a home adjacent to TPC Sawgrass Valley course hole number 3.

This just happens to be the Oak flooring we had installed in this home 10 years prior. We found the Oak flooring had corralled a lot of dirt in the soft grain of the wood over the years, due to dogs being in and out of their yard.

– Wire brushed White Oak floors before.

We sanded the floors with our big Lagler-Hummel belt sander, and hand sanded and scraped the edges of the White Oak floors.

– Sanding.

Then our Dan’s Floor Store team finished these wire brushed White Oak floors with durable Pallmann finish.

– Recoating.

Our clients (these new homeowners) were thrilled to see their wire brushed White Oak floors revitalized to a brand new state! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Installed French Oak flooring.

Install French Oak Hardwood Flooring in Palencia

/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 does flooring, tile, and stone work for Residential and Commercial clients.

A local building contractor friend recently contracted Dan and his team to install 9.4″ wide engineered French Oak hardwood flooring from the Asheville collection by Palmetto Road in a new construction home in the Palencia community in St. Augustine, Florida. This home has over 3,000 square feet of floor space downstairs, and 1,300 square feet of flooring upstairs. This new house has large open rooms (and closets) and plenty of big windows, from which to enjoy views of the surrounding area.

– Exterior of new house.

Our flooring installation practice begins with leveling the subfloors. We leveled the concrete slab subfloor downstairs. And our crew sanded and hand scraped the edges of the sheet plywood subfloor upstairs. A quality flooring installation requires a leveled subfloor.

– Leveling.

We began engineered French Oak flooring installation at the back doors of the new house. Our crew laid flooring side to side as you entered the front door of the house. The hallway was over 80 feet long, and included a lot of doorways and door casings (to tuck the flooring under).

As can be seen in several photos, the fireplace provided opportunities for our crew to display our skill at tight flooring fitting. Our motto is “Measure twice, cut once.”

– Installing.

Our builder friend told us that he was very pleased with our French Oak flooring installation in the new house. Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Repair and Refinish Heart Pine Flooring – Black Hammock Island

/in , , /by

Repeat customers called Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to repair and refinish the old Heart Pine flooring in a farmhouse on Black Hammock Island, on the Northside of Jacksonville, Florida.

We have been working with these homeowners for quite some time at another of their properties. They sold that property and moved onto a farmhouse on Black Hammock Island. Their new property includes plenty of land for their chickens, mules, horses, and other animals. This property offers a scenic location; situated along side of and overlooking the Amelia River.

Homesite property.

The farmhouse was built with logs harvested from the property. And the flooring in the home was milled from some of those Heart Pine trees, too. Flooring in the photos is New Growth Heart Pine. Our crew had to replace several Heart Pine planks in the floor that had been damaged. We had some New Growth Heart Pine flooring that was congruent to the existing Pine flooring. Our team changed out the damaged boards and then sanded down the floor with our Lagler-Hummel belt sander, and hand scraped the edges.

Sanding and Hand Scraping the floors.

Next we applied a Bona oil modified sealer as the first coat, to keep as close as we could to the previous look. (Sanding did remove some ambering and patina of the old Heart Pine flooring, so the new finish would result in a slightly lighter look.) After buffing down the first coat of oil modified Sealer, we then applied two coats of Pallmann Gold satin for a hardener filled topcoat.

Applying new Finish.

The Heart Pine floors in this farmhouse get a lot of wear. Dan’s Floor Store has these farmhouse homeowners on a flooring maintenance schedule. We will be back to refresh these floors within three years. It’s important to refinish this species of flooring every 3 to 5 years. This regular maintenance routine prevents dirt from getting ground into the soft grain of the wood.

Unfortunately, our Dan’s Floor Store crew didn’t get photos of the fully refinished floors. But, you can get an idea from the finishing photos, and, needless to say, our customers were thrilled with the outcome! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

9″ wide LVP Flooring Install – St Augustine

/in , /by

One of our homebuilder friends contracted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to do the flooring part of their new home project. They selected 9″ wide LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) flooring for the floors and stairs, in the color Luray Caverns, by LW Flooring. This LVP comes in varied lengths, which makes the installation and the look of the installed flooring more interesting.

Our crew began by leveling the subfloors. We leveled the concrete slab subfloor downstairs. We also sanded the edges of the plywood sheet subfloor upstairs to create a leveled surface for the LVP flooring. Dan’s Floor Store has found that leveling the surface of the subfloor prior to installing new flooring gives better results and happier clients.

Leveling.

Next came the installation of the Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring on the upstairs and downstairs floors, and the stairway. We found and installed matching nosing for the stair treads.

Our homebuilder client said he was very pleased with the finished LVP floors and stairway. Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients.
