Installing Wide White Oak Flooring for Fernandina Beach Yoga Studio

/in /by

A lady in Fernandina Beach called Dan’s Floor Store because the bamboo flooring in her Yoga Studio was failing. Solid bamboo wood flooring is nothing but a problem flooring for Florida!

Our client decided to replace the bamboo with a wide White Oak flooring.

First our crew removed all of the bamboo flooring.

Next. we had to do a massive amount of leveling! The concrete slab subfloor was covered in dips. The subfloors on all jobs done by Dan’s Floor Store must be leveled prior to flooring installation, to guarantee a strong bond to subfloor and a solid sounding floor versus a hollow floor sound!

Our crew installed a beautiful European wide White Oak flooring from the BELROSE collection by Azur Reserve.

The oak planks are 9 1/2” wide x 5/8” thick, with a 4mm sawn face; it is an absolutely stunning wood floor product! We used Bostik’s GreenForce adhesive for the installation. We have confidence in this proven no VOC adhesive, which includes an effective moisture barrier membrane. Because these are wider wood planks, we used special flooring straps to hold the planks in place during installation. Then our Dan’s Floor Store crew finished the job by installing vinyl baseboards.

Needless to say our client was thrilled with the outcome of her new White Oak wood flooring for her yoga studio! And Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

/in /by

Forest Accents Ardesia XWA Ponte Vedra Beach homeowner contracted Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to install 1,500 square feet of White Oak flooring in their home.

Our client selected 7 1/2″ wide, engineered French/German White Oak (Ardesia XW) wood flooring, made by Forest Accents, from their Euro Textures line.

As can be seen in the following photos, we did a massive amount of leveling on the concrete slab subfloor prior to this wood flooring installation.

Our crew used Bostik Pro Cure adhesive to accomplish the French/German White Oak flooring installation.

We finished this flooring project out with shoe molding to match the baseboard. A hallway was installed on the diagonal, for added visual effect. And our crew also sanded, stained and refinished the lower existing stair tread to match the new wood flooring.

Our client was very happy to see how nice their new French/German White Oak flooring installation looked, and Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Sand and Finish Engineered White Oak Flooring and Stairs- Crescent Beach

/in , , , /by

Beach view from the project home.This home had been damaged during Hurricane Irma, in the fall of 2017.
These Crescent Beach community homeowners (in St. Augustine, Florida) called Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 to restore their water damaged wood floor and staircase.

During the storm, wind and water came in through the windows and doors of the home. You can see some of the water damaged wood flooring and stairs in these photos.

Our crew began working this project by drying out the wet subfloor with dehumidifiers and high powered fans. Then our crew repaired over 500 square feet of engineered White Oak flooring (weave-in repairs with new White Oak flooring).

To restore the wood flooring and staircase, we sanded and hand scraped the edges of:

  • 2,000 square feet of White Oak flooring
  • 30 stair treads
  • 8 stairway newel posts
  • 80 linear feet of stair railing

The engineered White Oak flooring had a tough aluminum oxide finish. Our crew used a lot of sandpaper to go through all the stages of sanding the wood flooring to prepare it for refinishing.

It takes a lot of sandpaper to remove the tough, aluminum oxide finish on wood flooring.

We applied Bona oil-modified DriFast Sealer to the sanded wood.

Then our crew buffed between each of the next coats and applied Bona Woodline oil-modified, polyurethane Satin finish for a tough protective coat and slight amber color to enhance the natural tone of the wood.

Our clients were very happy to see how nice their floors and staircase looked when restored, and Dan’s Floor Store likes to have happy clients!

Engineered White Oak Wood Flooring Installation – Palencia Country Club

/in /by

When owners were ready to replace the carpeting in the master bedroom and office of their Palencia home, they called Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 for a free consultation and estimate.

Closeup - solid white oak wood flooringThese clients liked the engineered White Oak wood flooring that they already had installed in their main living room; a product of LM flooring. Since we carry LM flooring in our store, we ordered the same exact flooring for the master bedroom and office of their home.

The first day of this project, we tore out the old carpeting in the two selected areas of the home.

The same day, our crew did the floor leveling using quality Bostik products. Floor leveling is required on almost every wood floor installation project, to create a flat surface, which decreases hollow areas beneath the wood flooring planks, to minimize damage to the wood and maximize the flooring life.

The next day, our Dan’s Floor Store crew installed all the new engineered White Oak wood flooring, about 400 square feet of it.

And on our last day on the job site, we finished the project out with shoe molding all around the new wood floors and helped move the client’s furniture back in place.

Our clients were very happy with their new engineered White Oak wood floors, and Dan’s Floor Stores always likes to have happy clients.

White Oak Character Grade Flooring Install – Palencia

/in /by

Wire brushed white oak character grade wood flooring installedHome owners in Palencia Golf and Country Club community wanted to replace about 1,100 square feet of tile flooring in their home with White Oak Character Grade Flooring. So they contacted Dan’s Floor Store of Ponte Vedra 904.887.8303 for this home improvement project.

Our clients selected 9/16″ thick x 7 1/2″ wide wire brushed White Oak character grade wood flooring with a natural appearance, by Naturally Aged Flooring.

First we removed the existing tile flooring.  The concrete slab subfloor of the home required an immense amount of leveling (as we have found to be a usual necessity) after the tile removal was completed.

Dan’s Floor Store cares about our wood flooring installations. We want to make sure that the new wood flooring lays flat with no hollow spots beneath. Leveling will help the wood flooring last longer. And leveling also helps the wood flooring hold up well during future sanding (for refinishing). We take pride in all of our work so we routinely level all substrate prior to wood flooring installations like this. We finished this job by installing shoe molding, and thresholds at the doorways where the new wood flooring met the tiled and carpeted floors in adjacent rooms.

This tile flooring removal and oak wood flooring installation project took our Dan’s Floor Store crew about a week to complete.

Our clients are very pleased with their new White Oak Character grade flooring, and Dan’s Floor Store really likes having happy clients.

Professionally installed new wood floors (whether solid wood, engineered wood, or laminate), or refinished the wood flooring in your home or business office will improve its looks and value. Give Dan’s Floor Store a call 904.887.8303 to make an appointment for a free consultation and estimate.

Wire Brushed Oak Flooring Installation – Nocatee

/in /by

Snow Cap wire brushed White Oak flooring by Naturally Aged Flooring.This Dan’s Floor Store wire brushed Oak flooring residential installation project took place in a home in the Twenty Mile Village community in Nocatee. Florida.

The first phase of this project was removing all of the floor tile from the kitchen area, and all of the carpeting in the home.

Next we had to level the entire concrete slab subfloor after (as is our standard practice) checking for any moisture issues since it was a new poured slab. (The moisture content of the slab dictates the selection of leveling material used for the job. Moisture coming up from the concrete subfloor can damage wood flooring.)

We had to do quite an extensive amount of leveling on this job. Some leveling areas show up in the wood flooring installation photos that follow. Having a level surface for a wood flooring installation prevents damage to the wood flooring and helps the wood flooring last much longer.

Our clients selected an engineered, wire brushed, White Oak wood flooring made by Naturally Aged flooring, called Snow Cap. This wire brushed Oak flooring is 1/2″ thick x 7 1/2″ wide and comes in random lengths, from 2′ to 6′, with white stain within the soft wood grain. From the Naturally Aged Flooring photo of this character grade White Oak flooring, you can see it has a natural looking white tone without so much character in the flooring to make it look too rustic.

Our clients are very pleased with their new wire brushed Oak flooring installation, and Dan’s Floor Store likes to have happy clients.

New wood floors (whether solid wood, engineered wood, or laminate), or refinishing the wood flooring in your home or business office will improve its looks and value. Give Dan’s Floor Store a call 904.887.8303 to make an appointment for a free consultation and estimate.

Beachy Look White Oak Flooring Installation – St. Augustine

/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store was called by a previous client living in Davis Shores in St. Augustine, Florida to install some new wood flooring. We had refinished his wood floors, sanding and staining them during our prior visit. Then Hurricane Matthew came through and the floors in his home ended up under 17 inches of water!

His old flooring had to be removed along with the subfloor, drywall, doors and baseboards. All are new because of the hurricane’s water damage.

Beachy look White Oak flooring being installedFor his new wood flooring , our client selected an engineered wood flooring product made by Real Wood Floors, the Vintage Loft collection, color name Foundry.

  • These are 8 1/2inches wide by 5/8inches thick random length planks, up to 7 feet long with 80 percent of lengths to be long boards.
  • It also boasts a 4mm top and has a distinctive look with lines against the grain to add to the already wire brushed texture on this White Oak flooring.

Dan’s Floor Store crew prepared the new plywood subfloor by edging down the seams of the plywood sheets. The edged seams makes it possible for the new wood flooring to lay flat across subfloor. You can see the edged subfloor sheets in in some of the project photos.

We used Bostik’s GreenForce adhesive, a Zero VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) adhesive, for this job.

Dan’s Floor Store uses special flooring straps to hold these White Oak wood planks together during installation, due to the width of the planks.

The White Oak wood flooring in the Foundry color shows shades of grey, silver, and black, to exemplify a beachy modern flooring look.

Our client was very pleased with their new beachy look white oak wood floors. We are glad to have clients that like our work. Many of our previous clients recommend us to their family and friends for wood floor installations, wood floor refinishing, and tile and stone work. Always nice to have clients who appreciate your work and introduce more potential clients to you.

Install Sand and Finish White Oak Wood Flooring in Ponte Vedra Beach

/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.

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.

New engineered White Oak wood floors in Jacksonville Beach

/in /by

It’s always nice when a client likes your work so much that they become a repeat client.

Dan’s Floor Store is very pleased that a lot of our wood floor and tile projects are either for repeat clients or are new clients referred to us by past clients who liked the wood floor or tile project we did for them and referred their family and friends to us.

Engineered White Oak Flooring with white stain in grain by Ark - detailFor this wood flooring project, we were called by a lady we had done a flooring job for two years ago, this time to install new wood flooring in two bedrooms of her Pier Point Condominium in Jacksonville Beach, Florida.

Our client selected engineered White Oak flooring with white stain in the grain by Ark, called Brushed Linen from their Estate collection; a redefining beachy look. Very nice selection for this condo, near the beautiful beach.

There is a sound deadening requirement for flooring in Pier Point condos, because the building is comprised of 5 stories of stacked, concrete condo units. To achieve the sound deadening requirement for the condo flooring, we used Bostik’s Vapor Lock which is a sound deadening adhesive.

Our client prefers a shiny floor and the Ark engineered White Oak wood flooring she selected comes prefinished has a dull matte finish. No problem! We finished the floor in place with a semi gloss Bona Mega Clear HD.

We agree with our client, the results are beautiful! Another happy repeat client!
