Flooring installation begins with your vision. We can help bring it to life by recommending products, colors and finishes that will best fit your decor, lifestyle, personality and budget. We work with Kansas City’s top hardwood suppliers to ensure you get the highest quality materials available. We understand that hardwood flooring is an investment and will never pressure you to make a decision or fail to answer your questions. We want you to be comfortable with the process and love the results.
Once you have decided on the flooring options you would like, we will send you a detailed estimate so you know exactly what your new hardwood floor will cost. When you accept, we will schedule your installation. Before the installation, you will need to remove furniture and wall hangings from the room(s). If you need assistance, we can recommend trusted local movers who are experienced with flooring prep.
Last but not least, we finish your new hardwood floor with three coats of an environmentally safe, durable and fast-drying topcoat. You can choose from several different finish options ranging from low luster to high gloss.
Why three coats? The first coat seals the hardwood, while the second and third build thickness for years of durability against normal wear and tear. We also screen, buff and vacuum between coats for the absolute best results. The result is a floor that’s ready to impress on day one — and built to last for decades.
Unfinished hardwood flooring is raw, natural wood that is installed first and then sanded, stained, and finished on-site. This allows for complete customization of the color, sheen, and final look.
Unfinished hardwood gives you total creative control. You can customize the stain, match existing wood, and achieve a seamless, consistent finish across the entire floor – something pre-finished planks can’t always provide.
Our exclusive process includes expert installation, dustless sanding, custom staining, professional-grade finishing, and a flawless final inspection. Each step is designed to create a truly one-of-a-kind result tailored to your vision.
Dustless sanding uses specialized equipment that captures dust before it enters your home. This keeps your space clean and ensures a smooth, contaminant-free surface for staining and finishing.
Yes. Because unfinished floors are stained on-site, we can precisely match your current flooring or create a custom color that ties your entire space together seamlessly.
Timelines vary depending on the size of the project and the custom finish selected. Installation followed by sanding, staining, and finishing typically takes several days. We provide a detailed schedule before work begins.
Absolutely. When finished professionally, unfinished floors provide a strong, beautifully sealed surface that holds up well over time. The custom finish also allows for future recoating or refinishing to keep them looking their best.
