Our Recent Refinishing Projects

REFINISHING HARDWOOD FLOOR IN GEORGE W. SMITH HOUSE – FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

Hardwood Refinishing Service embarked on a unique project that involved the installation of 1 1/4-inch red oak hardwood flooring and a landing in the iconic George W. Smith house, designed by the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright. Additionally, we took on the meticulous task of sanding the staircases, ensuring the home’s architectural integrity was preserved.

The significance of working on a Frank Lloyd Wright-designed home cannot be overstated. We approached this project with a deep sense of respect for the architectural legacy and a commitment to maintaining the original vision of the home.

Refinishing Stained Engineered Wood and Applying Natural Finish

This is one of our old projects that I found on my old iPhone. We refinished the darker stained engineered floor and applied a natural oil-based finish, which highlighted the variety of colors of the wood planks.

Refinishing Hardwood Stairs With Golden Oak Stain

We recently took on a fascinating project, bringing life back to a home’s staircase and second floor. We’re all about hardwood, and this project allowed us to combine our expertise with artistic touches to make the space look fabulous.

Our job was to refresh the stairs and second floor, and it needed a bit of preparation to make it shine. We used a Golden Oak stain, which enhanced the wood’s natural look and added a warm color that went well with the home’s style. To protect and seal the wood, we used a water-based Loba EasyFinish. It’s good for the environment and dries quickly, making it easier for the homeowner.

REFINISHING HARDWOOD FLOOR WITH ROSEWOOD STAIN COLOR

The project commenced with the sanding of the room, a meticulous process that ensured a smooth and even surface for the subsequent transformation. The choice of rosewood stain brought a touch of warmth and elegance to the space, enhancing the wood with captivating red undertones.

The challenge lay in the fact that the wood previously installed in the room was hickory or some variant of maple, which typically features lighter tones. However, our expertise in floor refinishing allowed us to seamlessly introduce the rosewood stain, creating a striking contrast that added depth and character to the room.

Hardwood Floor Repair | Fixing Wood Floors

In our portfolio, we would like to include a variety of projects where we demonstrated our expertise in a wide range of hardwood floor repair tasks. These services encompassed a multitude of challenges, each requiring unique solutions to breathe new life into the flooring.

The repairs involved intricate work, such as surgically removing damaged sections of the floor where screws had left their mark and seamlessly integrating new wood into those spaces. We also tackled the task of eliminating carpeting and skillfully connecting new flooring with the existing floor, followed by expert sanding to ensure a seamless and uniform appearance.

Refinishing Mansions' Hardwood Floors With Natural Satin Water Base Finish

Our latest project involved refinishing 1600-square-foot hardwood floors in a stately mansion with a natural satin water-based finish from Loba Company. The choice of a natural satin water-based finish from Loba Company added a touch of modern elegance to the traditional grandeur of the space. This project exemplified our commitment to preserving the charm and character of historic homes while ensuring they meet contemporary standards of beauty and durability.

N WAYNE AVE, CHICAGO HARDWOOD REFINISHING

At one of our past projects on N Wayne Ave in the heart of Chicago, we had the privilege of transforming a beautiful condominium’s hardwood floors. The space featured an open layout, connecting the living room, dining room, and kitchen seamlessly. The dining room boasted a stunning, rounded corner, which added a unique architectural charm to the space. Large windows flooded the area with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

REFINISHING STAIRS WITH 2 ROOMS USING NATURAL FINISH

We were honored to collaborate with Orient Flooring on a remarkable project that involved refinishing stairs and two rooms, resulting in a stunning transformation. This project presented unique challenges and standout features that made it truly special.

REFINISHING FACTORY PREFINISHED MAPLE HARDWOOD FLOOR IN NORTHBROOK

In the tranquil community nestled behind the fire station on Shermer Rd in Northbrook, Illinois, we took on a remarkable project in collaboration with Orient Flooring: refinishing a factory-finished maple hardwood floor. This undertaking presented unique challenges due to the exceptional hardness of both the wood and the existing finish.

Our skilled team confronted the task head-on, employing sanding paper with grit ratings far lower than the standard. In some areas, we had to utilize an impressive 16-grit paper, highlighting the extreme hardness of the wood. This meticulous process required precision and expertise to ensure the optimal outcome.

ELGIN OAKDALE DRIVE HARDWOOD FLOOR REFINISHING WITH SUNROOM

I had the privilege of working on a remarkable hardwood floor refinishing project in Elgin, collaborating with Redesign Floors. This beautiful residence boasted a sunroom and an open layout that encompassed a small dining room, a kitchen, a living room, and a spacious sunroom.

The sunroom was the centerpiece of the project, flooded with natural light through its glass windows and sliding doors. It created a warm and inviting atmosphere, seamlessly blending the indoors with the outdoors.
