Questions
What hardwood species should I choose for my project?
Select based on grain, hardness, and environmental factors. We offer over 50 domestic and imported species with guidance on durability and aesthetic considerations.

How often does wood flooring need refinishing?
Typically every 10-15 years depending on traffic. Our restoration services extend floor lifespan through professional sanding and refinishing techniques.

Regular cleaning with appropriate products, felt furniture pads, and periodic professional maintenance like buffing preserve floor quality and appearance.
