REFINISHING
A very popular method of refinishing with our customers is one in which light traffic is allowed on the floor on any given day during the process. This involves fast drying, eco-friendly waterbase finishes that are actually far more durable than their older oil base competitors.These finishes have little or no fumes and dry in about two hours. Several coats can be applied in one day. In some cases, depending on the size of the floor we can sand,stain and refinish a job with three coats in one day!However, we do offer and use oil base and other finishes as they are still very popular. Contrary to popular beliefs, water base finishes can provide the same depth level as oil and are again proven to last longer. They also do not "yellow" over time as might oil.
INSTALLATION
NAIL DOWN
installation typically involves 3/4" thick hardwood installed over a conventional foundation or plywood shot down over a concrete slab. However, thickness can vary from 1/2" to 5/8" depending on the product used. Floors that are thinner such as 3/8" thickness can be stapled down.All of our installation of nail down floors includes felt paper [15lb.] which insulates the floor and serves as a moisture retarder. Felt paper also helps prevent squeaking and provides a mild cushioning effect when walking over the floor. All subfloor installation includes a moisture barrier when installed over slab.
GLUE DOWN
Floors are glued directly to a slab and are common in pre-finished hardwood industry. An emerging trend is becoming popular where raw wood is glued down and re-finished producing the same appearance as a nail down wood floor.This allows for a much better appearance than a typical pre-fininshed floors while keeping the floor thickness as low as 3/8" It should be noted that it is never safe to glue down solid wood directly over concrete. We use only wood that has been engineered to withstand the variations in moisture coming from concrete.
FLOATING
floor installation is simply wood or laminate products that float on a pad.These floors are typically glued together from the sides. However, newer versions are snapped together without the use of adhesives.

We are so impressed with the quality and attention to detail. We originally had one room with the original pegged hardwood. The rest of the rooms were plywood. Sean and his guys came in and worked their magic. The new floors and the old floor match seamlessly, and they added the pegs. I smile every time I walk in the door.

This is the second time they refinished my wood floors after a leak and they did a fantastic job! They take great care to prepare the area to minimize dust and disruption. They came and finished on time with no surprises. If you need work on your wood floors use them and you will be very happy you did.

Best experience ever. Louis and his crew always arrived on time, worked super hard and were finished even faster than promised. They did an amazing job and my floors look fantastic and they charged a fair price. I would highly recommend them.

These guys are the best in Memphis. Luis and his crew are incredible! They take their time and produce at a VERY high level. They refinished a red oak floor in house that was built in 1954 and it looks awesome. I mean they look brand spanking NEW. These guys are great. If you want someone that will take their time, is deliberate and trust-worthy, pick up the phone and ask to talk with Luis
