Our Recent Refinishing Projects

Northbrook Library Auditorium Stage Refinishing

Stand Up Flooring recently completed a comprehensive refinishing project for the auditorium stage at the Northbrook Library, delivering an impressive transformation. This project began with meticulous sanding to remove the old finish, followed by water popping the floor to raise the grain and prepare it for staining. The black ebony stain was then expertly applied, resulting in a rich, deep color that enhanced the wood’s natural beauty.

REVIVING HARDWOOD ELEGANCE IN ELK GROVE VILLAGE, ILLINOIS

Hardwood Refinishing Service had the pleasure of revitalizing a charming single-story house in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, with warm and friendly Polish homeowners. This project was a testament to the enduring quality of hardwood floors, as the original floors had not seen refinishing since the house was purchased two decades ago.

Despite the passage of time – 20 years, the hardwood floors in this home remained in surprisingly good condition; they simply needed a fresh, rejuvenating touch. Our team carefully assessed the floors and identified areas requiring special attention, such as a few cracked wood planks in the kitchen area, which we replaced.
