Wayside Inne Log Cabin Gets New Wide Plank Floor

We recently completed a project at the historic Wayside Inne, a log cabin built in the 1940s. The cabin’s original floors needed an update, so we installed a stunning new wide plank floor using wide-plank hardwood. The wide planks add a rustic charm that perfectly complements the cabin’s vintage character. Our expert craftsmanship ensures the floor will stand the test of time while elevating the overall aesthetic of this charming property.

Hand-Scraped Hickory Glue-Down Floor

Another exciting project involved installing a hand-scraped hickory glue-down floor. The unique scraping technique gives the wood a one-of-a-kind, distressed appearance that adds warmth and character to any space. Glue-down floors are a popular choice for use over concrete slabs. We take pride in our attention to detail, ensuring a flawless installation that showcases the natural beauty of the hickory wood.

New Red Oak Floor in Bedroom

We also had the opportunity to add a new red oak floor to a bedroom in an existing home. Red oak is a classic choice known for its strength, durability, and timeless appeal. We carefully matched the new floor to the existing hardwood, creating a seamless transition. The result is a fresh, updated look that enhances the overall aesthetic of the room.

Refinishing Historic 1 1/2″ Red Oak Floor

Finally, we had the pleasure of refinishing an old, very narrow 1 1/2″ red oak floor. Refinishing is a cost-effective way to breathe new life into existing hardwood floors. Our process involves sanding, staining, and sealing the wood to restore its original luster. Despite the floor’s narrow width, our team’s expertise ensured a flawless finish that highlights the natural beauty of the red oak. At Ozark Hardwood Flooring, we are proud to serve clients within a 100-mile radius of Marshall, Arkansas, including areas such as Little Rock, Conway, Harrison, Russellville, Batesville, Northwest Arkansas, and Branson, Missouri.

Hand Scraped “Heart” Hickory Floor

Leave a comment

 

These are photos of a Hand Scraped “Heart Hickory” floor that we did in Texas in 2009.   Heart Hickory is hickory that has been graded out at the mill has 100% Heart wood.  It is the “brown part” of the hickory, so there is no white wood whatsoever.    In some cases, it nearly looks like walnut, but is just a bit lighter in color.  It is also very hard, even more hard that standard hickory in general, because the “heartwood” of hickory is harder than the sapwood.

In 2009, a good friend of mine who is also in the Hardwood Flooring business in Kerrville, Texas, had to have a hip replacement, and needed our help on this special 3000 Square Foot project.   We scraped this floor in our shop, hauled it to Texas, and installed and finished in a few days.   This is a special “heart” hickory, that only contains the dark wood from the hickory, none of the white wood.  It is a very hard wood, and more uniform in color than standard hickory.  This turned out to be a beautiful floor, in a beautiful home.

In 2006 we started doing Hand-Scraped wood floors. Now these distressed floors are some of the most popular floors that we do. Since these floors are scraped and textured by hand, no two floors are alike and they are all very beautiful. These are all hand scraped and textured in our shop before they are installed. They are all done by hand, one board at a time.

Some installers scrape a floor after it is installed. Scraping after installation means that you scrape across the joints of the boards, making each board blend together and basically look like a big sheet of uneven plywood when you’re done which is not a desirable look. We work with each board individually, and get the definition of each board in the floor that you are looking for. The floor has to be immediately finished after installation to protect the floor.

Our hand scraped floors start at about $ 7.00 per Square foot, installed and finished, for Rustic Pine up to about $12.00 per square foot for Walnut or Cherry.

 

We can also provide flooring with other textures such as wire-brushed, circle sawn, skip sawn, etc. If you are looking for something a little different than the plain smooth floor, give us a call or send an e-mail today.   Be sure and check out all the pictures of hand-scraped floors all over our site.
